I didn't know Harden sat out 4th a few times. BTW, Curry took just 7 shots today in 29 minutes, made 4, and 3-6 for 3s. The guys is just total package, doesn't care his stats at all, as long as the team wins.

There was no way Kemba was stopping any of the 14 points. Not if you pull up 4-5 meters behind the 3pt line.
And he did it in 31 minutes. He's had a lot of sub-35 min games. Imagine what he'd be doing if he weren't preserving minutes for the playoffs.

That's pretty awesome, and shows that Harden is awesome. If Harden were doing that regularly, then he'd be something like Curry, which is a couple steps above awesome.
Curry is the best shooter in NBA history, and frankly, it's not even close. The cartoonish range and quickness of shots are obvious, but his creative LAYUPS are beastly as well. Ray Allen didn't shoot his type of layups or shots. Reggie Miller had zero scoring in the paint and didn't much off the dribble. Nash didn't attempt extra range during actual games. Simply amazing. Damn.
Many guys are capable of scoring a lot of points in this league, but to do it with such efficiency, going 14-18, and 8-11 for 3s in 3qtrs, and within the team system they have? That's true greatness!
I agree I was arguing with my brother over thanksgiving he was trying to tell me that Ray allen and Nash were just as good, I told him Ya right. This dude is the best ever and he's in a zone thats never been reached before. He makes scoring the ball look so easy. I mean the guy is attempting 11 threes a game and is making close to 45% that's insane. Our boy PG is on fire even more thought the past couple games 55% from 3 with 32/57 made. He's killing it right now really something to see. I wish we could get him in rockets red more than any player in the game. Him and harden would be the deadliest combo on the wing since MJ/pippin or LBJ/Wade. There styles mesh perfectly.
Last player to score 40 or more on 18 fGs? Our very own James Harden Yes we have a superstar on our team too
