James Harden reflects on Russell Westbrook, Thunder days in ESPN interview

Houston guard James Harden has never been shy about the way he’s felt about his former Oklahoma City teammates.

Harden, now battling Russell Westbrook for the NBA’s Most Valuable Player award, sat down with ESPN’s Hannah Storm, and again reiterated how special his time was in Oklahoma City, as well as how special of a season Westbrook is having. "I mean, he's averaging a triple-double. That's crazy," Harden said.

Harden was asked if he misses playing with Westbrook.

“Yeah, of course,” Harden said. “I think if all of us had an opportunity to play with a guy like that, you’d love playing with him because he’ll run through a wall for you.
