James Harden put the offensive skills on full display once again Thursday night against his old team. 


There might not be much animosity there anymore between the two sides, but you know that any chance James Harden has to embarrass the Oklahoma City Thunder, he’s going to take it.

Well, on Thursday night when the Rockets and Thunder met on the court, he took full advantage, and very much so.

In the second quarter with the ball in his hands, Harden just flat out schooled the Thunder defense, splitting the defenders and executing the beautiful finish at the rim.


Oh, that was just nasty. Again, the hate is not there as much as it used to be, but you have to think Harden gets a lot of pleasure out of making the Thunder look silly when he can.

Right here, that’s the definition of looking silly.
