    if he can get a heart transplant from Kobe, then he would be the best player in the nba today, period, let's see how he fares when the playoffs come, one game at a time

    he was the best player in the NBA last year unless you think someone else could have single handedly carried the rockets farther last year

    don't act like rockets overachieved last year despite of harden

    the whole team ran out of gas last year. ask Morey, MDA, CP3

    don't act like the rockets roster outside of harden was WCF bound

    What Harden did was not run outta gas. I seriously doubt he was so gassed he forgot how to shoot & pass the ball all in the 1st quarter of the game. How can you be that tired you're not even looking to shoot the ball (IN THE 1ST DAMN QUARTER). That angle doesn't work

    Mental fatigue from carrying a team. Every star not named 93/94 Hakeem has had it.

    If he got a heart transplant from Kobe, he'd die of heart attack/exaustion, Kobe's been loading up on them double cheese burgers in retirement.
    Now if he had a transplant from Boban Marvonovic, he would never tire!

    Mental fatigue doesn't make you pass up WIDE open shots & only take 2 shots in the 1st half of a elimination game

    so why did Lebron and Kawhi take 10 days rest last year? wanna ask Pop and Lue?

    and why did KD, Green, and Steph rested couple of nights just 20 games/25% into a young season? wanna ask Kerr?

    while its impossible for harden to run out of gas after missing only 1 out of 93 straight games of playing mvp-level frantic pace ball to carry last year's ryno, ariza, gordon, pbev, capela, lou, and nene past MVP WB in 6 games and to round 6th game against a clearly superior 61 win, 3-1 matchup, Pops coached spurs team?

    tell me which single superstar can you add to ryno, ariza, gordon, pbev, capela, lou, and nene and could have carried them farther than harden did?

    yeah it only makes 3 stars in a 5 star superteam to take couple of games off 20 games/25% in a young season

    But hardens not human like those cats amirite?

    The Confuscius of Basketball don’t lie.

    All naysayers begin your bow to him. Line begins behind the Mavs pretending Rockets fans

    SMH. Most of you guys can forgive your wives cheating on you but won’t forgive Harden for his playoffs performances. Give it a rest for now .
