I watched almost the whole game
Harden is the real deal. He is worth every penny and more.
He is the 3rd best sg in the NBA, and he is only getting better.
Olympic gold winner
Houston was already one of my favorite teams, now I want to watch more of their games.
Good owner
Great gm
Great city
Now a great player
Harden traded to Houston

Don't over Hype Harden after one game.... I don't want to take anything away from the guy but it's just ONE GAME even Brandon Jennings scored 55 Points before but I think we should see how consistent he is for the rest of the season..... I didn't get to watch the game so I'm not coming to any conclusions about him but I know not to jump to conclusions after only one game

Idk where you are getting the idea of me actually "comparing" them all I'm saying is players can have one good scoring night... I would need to see him do this consistently before you start just giving them credit they don't deserve and this was against the Pistons... Let's see if he can have similar performances against GOOD teams

Obviously the dude isn't going to do that every night but I still think he'll prove this season he's worth the max contract. He's a great player and as someone else said a top 3 SG in the league.
Edit: BTW, this doesn't mean it was a stupid trade for OKC. Long term they saved money and stay young again.

I have him at #3 in the league behind Kobe and Wade.

I think harden all ready has proven himself before this season but this season is gonna make OKC wish they payed a little extra to keep him. I would rather have harden than westbrook really.

45 points in his 2nd game. No big deal. Only a career high.

Who is Houston playing today?
If we somehow land Dwight Howard AND Nash (which is one of the biggest reaches I've posted, don't think that will happen), then yeah...I have no problem with it, because Howard won't allow anyone to take Nash off the dribble 30+ minutes a game.
You should reach more often

I know 2 games are a small sample size and opposing teams haven't really keyed in on him yet because it is the start of the season and he is in a new role, but my goodness. Harden is putting up beastly numbers.

He's looking like the real deal need to see him play against a legitimate play off team though

Blazers should offer Harden the first challenge of the season especially come off a back to back. I'm expecting a relatively quiet night from him today.

I mean the two games are games that Kobe and Lebron would consider "in the zone" game of the year type games for themselves

On monster efficiency as well. He's like the anti-Westbrook.

I wonder if he'll go back to how he was in the finals when the Heat slap that Pistons zone on him. Maybe Jeremy Lin playing the role of facilitator solves that?
