    Usually when one team has 0 days rest , so does the opponent (not always though). Maybe he scores more because the opponent is tired.

    He may have the biggest advantage of any other star player when he's facing a team on a b2b/or road trip when there's been very little practice time or time to prepare in general because of how unique he is. I don't have time to look into it, but I know his latest Utah ~40-12-5-6-4 game was a b2b for both teams and obviously last night's game was too.

    Or harden is getting less help with 0 days rest.

    I'm ready for the playoffs now. Harden is on fire.

    Here you go:
    3P% - FG% - 3PA

    0 Days Rest: .420 - .470 - 14
    1 Days Rest: .347 - . 436 - 14
    2 Days Rest: .412 - .433 - 13.1
    3+ Days Rest: .286 - .423 - 9.8

    He also dishes out more assists and grabs more rebounds with 0 day rest. Crazy dude.

    So we’re looking at 33.3 points from
    Harden in Boston and 37.5 in Toronto?

    Jesus, he has higher stats because he is more efficient with 0 days rest and he plays 2 min. more. 3+ days off is his kryptonite

    I think on back to backs, he has no time for the strip club. This is the reason he is better. A lot more energy

    So are you guys saying that Harden should practice abstinence during the season? Maybe Morey should sneak that clause into the contract. :D

    The more he rest, the more stripclubs and booze he gets in his body.
