Harden dropped 44 points en route to a 108-98 victory over the Nets, Saturday night at the Toyota Center. The Nets dropped their second straight game and fell to 16-15 on the season; 12-8 without Kyrie Irving.
The Nets, coming off a historically bad shooting night against the Knicks, shot just 40 percent from the field and hit 28 percent of their three-pointers on the night. An improvement? Yes. Enough to take down the 22-10 Rockets? No.
To add insult to injury, Spencer Dinwiddie shot jut 6-of-20 from the floor, 0-for-7 from three and 5-of-11 from the free throw line to go along with five turnovers.
