For those that thought being a first-offensive option wouldn’t garner enormous numbers for James Harden’s first game with his new team, the Houston Rockets, looked foolish last night as he dropped a rare stat line against the Detroit Pistons.
In fact his 37 points 14-for-25 from the field, 6 rebounds, 12 assists, and 4 steals was so special, only Michael Jordan, Larry Bird, and Dwyane Wade have put up 37 points, 6 rebounds, 12 assists, 4 steals, and one blocked shot in 25 seasons.
Welcome to the statistical big leagues, Mr. Harden.
