    It was a GREAT run. Harden went out with class. Harden literally had only 2 games, including this Hawks game, where Harden was actively trying to get 30. That's pretty impressive.

    I guess with all the streak threads, we need a "Morey's Beard Appreciation Thread"?

    I don't believe in the ones that matter. This was nice, historic, but come on. It just reinforces what we know: Harden is unguardable..

    It was the perfect ending to a very dominating streak

    I'm happy it is over for Harden, less stress for him and more rest. If the streak continued it would of been unbearable with media attention and nearing the playoffs. Harden would be tiring mentally and physically in the playoffs. And he would get blamed massively for the playoffs if it fails. It is the perfect time to end it now so that there is still some season left and more winning basketball. I will always remember this steak forever, it happened in 2018-2019 season. Streaks are made to be broken, some just are untrue to be broken (Yankees titles from the 40s and 50s), but I think this streak is going to live for a while.

    I liked it because of what it symbolized, not the streak itself. He put the team on his back, during a time when they needed him to, and he carried them. It was all very natural...the team needed him to do it...and he did it.

    This was the most insane stretch of offensive dominance of the modern NBA era.

    Some day when we will look back at the 30 for 30 on this and have goosebumps.

    My favorite moment will forever be Harden's "MOTHERF*CKER" over Draymond and Thompson.

    When the streak started the Rockets were under .500 and in second to last place with their second best player weeks from returning. Harden's scoring run for the ages kept this team from total collapse.

    The streak was fun while it lasted but now it's time to get this team ready for playoffs.

    Thank God that stupid streak is over.

    One of the dumbest things ever. He takes 90% of our shots for cryin out loud.

    Now the Rockets can move on from such a pointless distraction.

    We needed every one of those points. It kept our team alive and gave us hope to be in a good position in the playoffs. Harden is one of the best ever offensive players in NBA history. His defense has been pretty good so far this season. We get to witness history. He played against real NBA players and Teams that schemed to stop him and still put up numbers. Go Beard and Go Rockets
