5 years agoHouston Rockets guard James Harden scored a very efficient 44 points against the Nets on Saturday, shooting 17-for-27 from the field and 6-for-10 from downtown. The Beard was heading towards another 50-point game, but he bizarrely struggled with his free throws, going just 4-for-9. He added 10 rebounds, six assists, and three blocks. Harden has now shot 50 percent or better in five straight contests and he's sinking treys at a 41 percent clip this month. He's in a smash spot on Sunday against the pacy Pelicans, who already saw the 2018 MVP drop an easy 39 points on them in the last meeting on Nov. 11.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
