Alex Kennedy @AlexKennedyNBA How impressive was Harden tonight? Only three other players have had a 37-point, 12-assist, 6-rebound, 4-steal game: Jordan, Bird and Wade.
I was pretty happy we landed Harden but I wasn't expecting an debut like that. First game but we may have a very special player on hands.
im totally psyched about harden. i knew this was a good pick up from the beginning, people were complaining about his price tag but who else in the league is there to get? he showed us tonight that he can be a leader and not just score, i hope he can keep it up as this IS just one game. being a rocket fan means you never get your hopes up too high.

kinda funny and Ironic, that the attention w**** lady dwight is not dominating the head lines like the beard on opening week. Usa today, espen, yahoo.. If you're awesome, the spotlight will find ya no need to go cuddle up with jigga man and zoviet exile billionaire.
Harden is the real deal. He's got similar phisical attributes as Dwade, and his offense is everything as advertised. Big numbers is expected with increased minutes. What surprised me was how much he improved his defense. Hope he can keep it up, and don't forget he's eligible for 2012 NBA draft(22 years old back in June). I'd take him over Davis if he was in the draft.
Exactly. All you need to show are the clips of both Asik and Smith. Both Harden and Lin made them look good last night(given their limited offensive skill) If this elite post player has above averge skills, imagine how they would perform with this duo.
Don't know about Davis, but just had to bump the thread. Had almost forgotten what it was like to be excited about the Rockets. Go Harden!!
