Sometimes the headline says it all, like the headline to our recap, titled James Harden too much for the Nets.
Tuesday was the 16th time James Harden faced the Nets since entering the league as Oklahoma City’s first-round pick out of Arizona State in 2009.
While he is the league’s top scorer, it wasn’t always that way. He came off the bench in his first four games against the Nets, including an 0-for-10 showing on Dec. 28, 2009 in game that featured the Nets starting Yi Jianlian, Devin Harris, Courtney Lee, Brook Lopez and Trenton Hassell.
