In the second half, he scored 27 points on drives and jumpers, missing just three shorts. He finished the game, going 16-of-25 from the floor and 8-of-9 from 3, alongside 11-of-13 from the line, while leading the Rockets to a 115-111 victory.
It was Harden's 33rd 30-point game this season and the ninth time he's scored 40 this season, which both lead the NBA. He also became the first player in a franchise with Hall of Famers Hakeem Olajuwon and Moses Malone to have two 50-point games in a season. There have only been 10 in team history.
The Rockets are tied for second in the Western Conference with a 51-24 record.
James is just dominating night in and night out, putting himself into the MVP conversation this seson, alongside Stephen Curry and Russell Westbrook. Some say Curry is the leader since he plays for the best team in the league, but Harden is right there.
What do you think?
