    Late in the first half of the Rockets 125-112 win over the Los Angeles Lakers on 1/8/2013, Kobe Bryant took the defensive assignment of covering James Harden. Harden went right at him up until the end of the half.

    Bryant didn't cover Harden for the rest of the game.

    It's just amazing the way Harden gets to the basket.

    For all the non-believers that Harden is a legit superstar, here it is.

    IIRC, Kobe also allowed some wide open 3s by Delfino (unless somebody was supposed to have switched onto Delfino running off screens)

    I was laughing so hard while watching this, Harden just toyed with him for every possession Kobe guarded him.
