Anthony 22/8/3 3-0 against teams that are a combined 20-44

Harden 42/6/8 2-1 against teams that are a combined 29-26

Interesting choice, NBA, interesting choice.

That extra win against Chicago was really worth 60 points scored (over three games), huh.

Probably because Houston lost. There were quite a few players in the west that had better numbers than Melo.

Actually, Marc Stein said the Rockets only played two games.

So Harden averaged 47/5/7 and went 2-0.

He averaged 25 MORE points than Melo. He more than doubled Melo's scoring average AND went undefeated, but because Melo played an extra game against the Bulls, this is fair? :noway:

The hate in here is real!

Last week Spencer Dinwiddie won PotW and not one person was in here complaining. If it was about who the best player is then Giannis would win it almost every week and Lebron would have about 400 PotW awards. Harden already won it two times this season. It's an honorable mention... and Melo had a week worth mentioning. Try and be happy for the guy.
