NBA: 10 best games of James Harden's 2017-18 season

Houston Rockets v Dallas Mavericks
MVP frontrunner James Harden

#6 Against the Miami Heat, 7th February 2018

Houston Rockets v Atlanta Hawks

Stat line: 41 points, 6 assists, 4 rebounds, 2 steals on 52.0% shooting

The Miami Heat are one of the most overachieving teams, given the talent level on their roster. They depend, plenty, on their team defense, which ranks 6th in the league with respect to efficiency. They also do take advantage of their nightclub scene at South Beach to catch their opponents off-guard.

In addition, this game was on the second night of a back-to-back and was the last contest on a four-game road trip.

None of this bothered the focused Harden and his team though. After putting up 36 in the previous night in Brooklyn, he went off for yet another 40+ point game. Similar to the previous games, in a close win (8 points), Harden was a game-high +9 in his 37 minutes on the floor.
