Other rockets have won the MVP, taken us to the finals and a couple even won everything. I'd say he has to lead us to the promised land once before breaking into the top two.
Kudos to Harden. The exciting thing is he's still relatively young and can only improve. I'd like to see him add more skills to his arsenal and work on his D.
So does the Rockets epic game 6 comeback against the Clippers without James Harden also prove the same point??

Yes. Please explain to me why it is a crazy question? There have been some greats in a Rocket uniform and I started watching around the championship years. So, it was a fair question to ask.
congrats JH! well deserved, now please take rockets to the promised land starting with 2nd game win against GS.
Serious question: Who voted Khris Middleton for all NBA first team??? What an absolute moron. Seriously.
3rd in first team votes... only behind curry/lebron. He's come a long way... one of the stars of the league now
