Did anyone see James Harden go off on his old team?

46 points
8 rebounds
6 assists

That has to be one of the better outings for anyone this year.

Hes is a beast and Houston is gonna get Dwight I am really feeling it. Houston with Dwight is upper tier team instantly.

If you'd like to know how much one player can impact a team, consider this-- when John Wall came back from injury, the Wizards were 5-28... since then they are 13-9...

A .591 winning percentage over the course of the season would have the Wiz holding the 4th seed as of this morning...

Hopefully next year, the Wizards can take the upcoming high draft pick and manage to stay healthy, then make some noise... it's quite disappointing for me as a fan, both my Cowboys and my Wiz had their seasons ruined by injury... but oh well, at least the Orioles gave me some fun last season... it had been a while since they sniffed the playoffs...

I'm a wizards fan as well, I've recently been wondering how much better their record would be if Wall had been healthy all year. The residual effect has been the improved play of Bradley Beal, who is making a case for ROY if he continues to show this steady improvement.

I've heard arguments that wall is a better true PG than Irving. I'd love for him to stay healthy for once so we can see if its true or not. Both of them have amazing ceilings, should be interesting to watch in the coming years if both become great, or if one becomes cp3 and the other Darren Williams

Why do you think this Juck?

I could see him going to Houston as well, but It's most likely he stays in LA IMO, too much money to leave, not because he truly wants to be there

That is not true at all. Irving is a much better PG than Wall. Wall is a way more gifted athlete, but Kyrie is superior in ball handling, passing, basketball IQ, definitely shooting, and running a half court offense.

I agree, I said I heard arguments, not that I agree with them. But they are both still very young and that could change. I just hope they can both become more durable, because that's been the biggest issue so far in their careers

Sorry if I came off hostile with that last post. Wasn't my intention at all. And I agree about the durability. The both of them would make the East more competitive if they played more regular season games, even if they still can't challenge Miami.

Ya once Jason terry left I stopped hating the mavs, I really disliked him and stackhouse

JET was one of my favorite Mavs. After game 6 of the finals there is no way I could ever hate him. Plus he loves getting the crowd hyped.
