Harden’s career stats are crazy when you realize he has:
• More career 60-point games than MJ
• More career 50-point games than LeBron
• More career 3PM than Ray Allen
• More career points than Tim Duncan
• More career assists than Tony Parker
Once in a generation type player.
On December 13, 1989, in his first game against Shawn Kemp, Larry Bird recorded 40 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists, achieving a triple-double. He shot 63.0% from the field (17-27), 40.0% from three (2-5), and 100.0% from the free-throw line (4-4). Bird also had 1 steal, 2 blocks, 5 turnovers, and 2 fouls in 46 minutes. The Celtics won 111-98. Data comes from Basketball-Reference and Land of Basketball, though Kemp’s recollection of 50 points seems exaggerated.
Thank you, Houston, for another incredible season.
I’m proud of this team—my brothers. We fought every step of the way, grew together, and earned everything we achieved. The journey wasn’t easy, but we stayed locked in.
We’re not satisfied—we’re hungry for more.
This season taught us a lot, and next year, we’re coming back stronger. Time to lock in, get to work, and elevate.
Let’s get it. #RedNation

Kevin Garnett says the Harden step back is the best signature move in NBA history:
"James Harden doesn’t get enough credit for inspiring this generation. All these moves we see today — the first person I saw doing them was James Harden."
