Just 4 months ago there were shops of just his jersey on the court.

I know it's one game, but a lot of people are going to be backtracking from their earlier comments if Harden continues a high level of play.

Just one game, but I said this even when the trade went down.
James Harden is going to be around this every night. For no other reason, he has to. He has to not only shoot a lot, but have the ball in his hands and make plays for everyone. It's the Lebron Effect. Nobody else on this squad save for Lin at times, can create for themselves.
James skillset complements this delima perfectly. He's like a scoring PG ala Lebron in Cleavland. (Waits for people to say "After one game people are comparing Harden to Lebron" completely missing the point)

No he didn't....
- He maximized what he could get with the draft picks (especially Toronto's first)
- wasnt going to be able to pay him AND Ibaka
-wasnt gonna be held captive for a max deal i.e. Orlando
- Got Lamb to fill the bench scoring role
-Expiring contract in Martin
Now if they get rid of Perkins...he's a GAWD
Win-win for both James and the Thunder

Harden could've broke Wilt's single game record tonight...still doesn't change the fact that Presti made the right move at the right time.
A lot of these other GM's should be taking notes.

Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook are still alive you know?
Why did Presti **** up by not maxing out their third best player...no matter how good he is?

Presti made the right move still. Either trade him and get value or let him leave and you get nothing. Thats what it came down too and he made the right call

Can't they just amnesty Perk?
To think, if he performs up to expectations...Harden will ONLY be 28 by the end of this deal.

I always thought that harden > westbrook
James could score and make his teammates better at the same time. Just my $0.02

Nov 28. I am going to be in the building. I will not boo bird.
The playof the game, his patented take the screen going left but they tried to trap him, he used the in and out to split the 2 defenders, Euro'd by the next game and began to lose the ball as he was fouled, still retrieved it in stride and layed up over Tayshaun Prince and 1! Literally cooked 4 of the 5 players on the court for Detroit, People will negative nancy of course that "it's just Detroit" but the skillset involved in the plays he is capable of making is remarkable. Yes he goes left every time and splits and Euros every time and you know it's coming, but it still can't be stopped
