    he could have reached that a long time ago if only he had moved without the ball when teams are double/triple teaming beyond the arc

    Pretty crazy, but he's certainly capable of doing it. It would produce an earthquake around the league and among the fans. That's for sure. A 6.9 on the Richter Scale.

    What's equally crazy is that he was about 35000 points behind Kareem before he joined the Rockets 6 seasons ago.

    Kobe and Malone played almost 20 years in the league. Harden is in his 11th year. Unless Harden burns out, he can definitely catch Kobe. Malone will be a little harder but still doable. We still haven't seen the peak of Harden's powers.

    Can’t ask for a better stat line.
    But can ask for a nicer one.

    He scored 2800 points last season and is on pace to break that number this year.

    With hopefully general good health for the next 5 years. Where do you see Harden finishing all time in scoring? Looking at it I would say anywhere from 3rd to 11 or 12th is reasonable.

    Pretty crazy to think that. His first 3 years before he got here was 9.9, 12, and 16. Then just a climb every freaking year.

    He would have to call a time out in order for them to tune him out

    I guess. Of course, McHale's wife is much angrier than D'Antoni's so Harden was probably playing with fire by ignoring McHale so often.

    Harden will receive this Subaru for reaching the 20k milestone.
