I agree, James Harden is the leading scorer in the NBA today, with an average of 30+ points per games. He is also a good leader for the Rockets, can shoot three pointers, and can drive hard to the basket to fish for fouls. He is also very confident and is not afraid of the moment having buzzer-beaters in some games this season. If he wins the MVP this season then I will not be surprised and too bad for the Thunder to let him go, but I guess they do not want to go over the luxury tax and all that business aspects of the NBA, since Harden had to be paid a high amount at that time because he was emerging to be a superstar.
