Every time James Harden puts on a scoring clinic in an LA Clippers uniform, the fans and media begin to reminisce about the superstar he became as a Houston Rocket. That is how great he was, and, lucky for Clipper Nation worldwide, this season they have done a lot of reminiscing, as Harden is averaging over 26 points per game for the first time since 2020.
This feat is absurd for a 36-year-old, and he is simultaneously fifth in the league in assist average at 8.7 per game. These are the types of accomplishments he achieved for the Rockets, but on a much larger scale, resulting in MVP votes.
