Everyone knows that James Harden is a serious MVP contender. Without Harden, the Houston Rockets would basically NOT be a playoff or even championship contender. He’s averaging 27 PPG, 1.9 SPG, 5.8 RPG, and 0.8 BPG. Daryl Morey, the Houston Rockets General Manager, knows that as well.
Morey Said:
“Take James Harden off our team, and we’re nowhere,”
It’s completely true and obvious. Harden has completely stepped it up with the absence of Dwight Howard, and he’s really emerged as a superstar in this league. The Houston Rockets also discussed the exchange that made them get James Harden and other factors revolving around analytics.
