James Harden Triple Double

109 points 39 assists 36 rebounds in the last 3 games? No one saw this coming that Harden already a top 5 player would take his game to this level. Right now no one is playing better then him and leading a average squad like he is. Props to the wolly mammoth

Even if he hadn't scored (and he dropped 53) it would have been a notable game. Only 5 previous players in the last 30 years have recorded 15 assists and 15 rebounds in a game. Westbrook and Harden are having remarkable MVP worthy seasons and deserve all the attention and plaudits that come there way however, Lebron is having the most under appreciated 26, 8 and 8 year ever! We have come to just accept this level from him as the norm whenwhat LBJ is doing is far from normal.

He also assisted on 8 threes and 9 2's . so he was responsible for 94 of the Rockets 129 points. That is some incredible historic stuff.

What he is doing right now and carrying Houston to third seed in the west is great. Most people had this team missing the playoffs no one told Harden and the Rockets that.

Only team to win in San Antonio and Golden State this season. They won in OKC to.

My 7 month child is teething which means little sleep for me again tonight! Tired and bored I've been thinking, is this season's sixers team better than last season's?

The next four games will see the Sixers play Wollongong, Melbourne, New Zealand and the Gold Coast. Form suggests 2-2 result is most likely but slip ups could see 0-4 (no win is certain this season).

The Sixers sit 1 win better than the Tigers. A lose to the Tigers could see them slip to 8th, which while not last, is essentially the same position they finished last season.

As I've already stated, this season's Sixers seem much better than last season's but the possibility of the Sixers finishing 8th got me thinking how last year's team stack up against this year's team. I did the following comparision

09 Player v 10 Player(s) - Better contribution
Gilchrist v Winder/Shannon - Gilchrist (at this point)
Groves v DeVries/Howard - DeVries/Howard
Ballinger v Ballinger - Ballinger (09)
Burston v Johnson - Burston
Holmes v Holmes - Tie
Ng v Ng - Ng (10)
Hill v Hill - Hill(10)
Cooper v Dowdell - Dowdell
Herbert v Carter - Carter
Molitor v Creek - Creek

I've come to the following conclusion: The competition is stronger than last season and for the sixers to avoid finishing 8th Shannon needs to continuing scoring points and delivering lots of dimes, Ballinger needs to find his 08&09 form, Johnson needs to get the same opportunities Burston had last season (when healthy) and Howard needs to put up big numbers.

I still believe the Sixers will finish better than last season but we'll need a miracle to make the final 4. Reasonable call?
