For the last couple of years, James Harden has essentially served as the Houston Rockets' point guard. Now he has the title to back it up.
Rockets coach Mike D'Antoni said Harden would become the team's full-time point guard this season at Monday's media day session:
He's more or less responsible giving rhythm to the team, that's what a point guard does. He's going to be on the ball and he's going to be distributing the ball and it will take some adjusting. He's got a lot more responsibilities as a point guard.
