I’ll eat crow about the Rockets losing this game.....they certainly deserved to lose. I still think Capela is too soft and inconsistent. He was better last season. Harden....what can you say? No other player in NBA history has successfully put a team completely and consistently on his back than Harden. Amazing....Thank God he plays for Houston.
Imagine if harden only averaged his usual 26-28 ppg. You could probably add another 10 losses to their record.
OMG! That was among the most incredible sequences I have ever watched a player perform. Made me think of the diss TMac made on the Beard. Harden made a statement and carried the team again on his back and destroyed the Spurs when it counted. Amazing and great time to be alive. What more does a man have to do to get the respect he deserves? Hand the MVP to him already.
Tbh his defense was pretty bad even before the injury. There should be no excuses for him, at this point. He is who he is.
This ****ing guy is absolutely incredible. I actually thought he was gassed when he checked into the game in the 4th. When will I learn.... One of the most amazing performances I've ever witnessed in professional sports. Next level ****.
Nah not yet. Even if he won a ring this season. Stats wise Hakeem still has him by a lot. Steals and Blocks wise and as a whole.
Calvin Murphy: "What James Harden was doing out there was against the law, that's called being a straight up GANGSTA- he killed EVERYBODY on that court tonight "
I don't know how the MVP is up for discussion. I don't know how best player in basketball is up for discussion. It's Iman Shumpert.
Man for real though, people are gonna crap on PJ, but he's the most clutch defensive player in the league. Clint did good today, had some bad plays but came through in the end. And CP with smart plays to ice it.
What a game! I love beating the Spurs and to see James Harden score 61 points where we needed every point was special against our biggest rival.... thank you James!
The rest of the team were 17-52 from the field and 5-24 from the 3pt. That's why Harden had to take over in the last 4 minutes. If Harden doesn't win MVP then it's the biggest injustice in NBA history.
