    I enjoyed this performance like everyone did
    However what is bothering is that he had to score 61 for us to win .

    Our depth is thin. We need some more help

    This team is so poorly built...

    This team needs MULTIPLE moves before it's going to even be in contention against the current Warriors. Ennis has been a bust and Faried doesn't know how to play any defense. Even if we get Bazemore it won't be enough. We truly need multiple miracles at the deadline...

    It's not just that, how do we get on our feet post Harden? Without immediate high picks? Time will tell.

    I’m enjoying this historic feat. It’s pissing off the National establishment sports media.

    All the stupid talk about traveling, playing no defense, etc... Gesh this is the NBA, and it applies practically to every super star player. But because it isn’t their sexy pick, they are picking apart Hardens amazing play, and it makes them look like what they are, biased spoiled brats. Heck their smear on Harden is so effective that he is not even among the all star starters in the fan voting.

    Keep giving the crow to choke on Harden. Because the are gobbling it up...

    Why believe your eyes and stats when media editorial boards do the thinking for you!

    If we go by contribution Harden should be paid 95 percent of the cap space

    What's the team salary of the players who played last game, if we give Harden 95% of the cap. It might have saved Tilman tax.

    Harden was the one arguing with refs for a foul call in the second quarter of that Lakers game. He almost got a technical.

    That 76ers game brought out playoff intensity, and embiid was ready to go 'black panther' upside harden's head. Kinda like how Gianni's went upside his head with that basketball.

    And there were members saying we'd made a bad deal, had given up too much for Harden. I couldn't believe that reaction at the time, thinking James was a terrific "get" for Morey, but no one, even Daryl himself, could have predicted that Harden would end up being one of the greatest guards in NBA history and a first ballot Hall of Famer a few years later, breaking records decades old along the way. James is taking us on a ride that I hope never ends. Not without rings.

    Just giving the stats regarding his present level of production... and based on the stats... :)

    Btw are you ready to accept that Harden in the indisputable MVP - or are you still maintaining its Giannis? ;)
