After James Harden's 47-point performance in the Houston Rockets 102-97 win over the Utah Jazz, Chris Paul said that James Harden was the best offensive player he's "ever seen".

Paul added "I mean, seriously. He can drive. He can shoot. He’s got ball-handling. It’s going to be a tough night for whoever it is. I don’t care what you’re doing".

Harden has averaged 38.6 points, 7.6 assists, and 6.6 rebounds in his last five games.

Harden said he knows the reason for his scoring tear, but added that he "can’t tell you, though.”
