I think he wore himself out by time it came to the playoffs. He played all season to keep his team in a good seeding spot to give them a good chance but was more than likely burned out by then. And plus with playoff games being more crucial the game plan changes in most cases the game is slowed down.

I wasn’t even a fan of the nba at the time and anytime I’d catch snippets of a rockets game on tv I’d be in awe. Dude was a beast. Hope he can still come back.

James harden is my favorite player of all time. It's a shame seeing him with no ring when he deserved it. His prime was during unfair teams in the NBA, Rockets having shit teammates, but Also him not being consistent with his art. The only chance we had was with Chris Paul at a ring but ofc he gets injured then harden has to carry but can't do it by himself. And the choke of the century with rockets vs warriors Playoff, if we would have won vs the warriors the Rockets would have had the chip. Shame to him now but he still has potential and a chance at a ring

All that usage from the Rockets is starting to catch up to him now….. He ain’t got that same drive
