James Harden looked like the MVP of the NBA once again on Friday, even though his team didn’t come out victorious. This 4-point play shows how ridiculous peak-Harden is from an offensive standpoint.
JAMES. HARDEN. OH MY.

Russell Westbrook is one of the greatest players of this generation, but has failed at times when it matters most on numerous occasions throughout his career. His first opportunity to silence that narrative as a member of Rockets failed miserably with an agonizing brick when the game was on the line. On the good side, he did give his old teammate Paul George a bucket in crunch time.

#PlayerOfTheDay James Harden showed out on a national stage Friday night. HOU fell to LAC, but they would’ve gotten blown out if not for Harden’s presence. While he put up 37-12-8, he commanded double/triple teams & still scored big buckets. MVP performance. https://t.co/SgKHANQJyI
