    Harden is so great that these numbers don’t even impress me...41 ppg is only considered above average for him

    8 rebounds and 9 assists is meh...he can do that no problem

    lazy, out of shape, pregnant Harden is leading the league in scoring at 37 ppg...respect greatness

    When Harden scores 40, it isn't really a big deal. Even 50 isn't all that special for him. It's really 60 points or 50 point triple doubles that stand out. That's so crazy to even fathom since Dream only had 43 games where he scored over 40 in his entire career.

    I can legitimately see this guy scoring 80 in a game one day. He's scoring like this and he hasn't even gotten into a true rhythm yet.

    How the hell did Harden end up becoming a legitimate superstar and likely all time great SG when this is all said and done. He was 6th man during his OKC days and he just continues to rise.

    It's good to see him post numbers like this post-Miami fiasco (when the team more than likely spent its Saturday night exposed to the South Beach flu). At least he has the pride to shake that off and step up his game. The competition wasn't great, but the team had barely beaten NO, Washington, etcetera.

    Harden can score 85 points and national media will still say Kobe did it better with 20 FT attempts and 2 assists in 42 mins. "Harden is selfish!"

    Dream did not have the 3 ball and did not go to the stripe that much.

    Only players with more POTW awards

    Lebron
    Kobe
    Durant
    Jordan

    Only needs 3 more to pass Jordan and
    4 more to pass Durant

    Harden is getting freaking muscular. He looks like a linebacker. The guy is a beast.

    He needs to take Capela to the gym with him.

    Not sure if anyone has posted this but this amazes me how harden can play off ball when he wants to and did in 2010-2012 with OKC.

    Playing him off ball for too many minutes is wasteful - Harden is omega level superstar now.
