James Harden the eighth player to score at least 50 points in a game after turning 35

James Harden the eighth player to score at least 50 points in a game after turning 35


Prior to Wednesday night, only seven players had scored at least 50 points in a game in NBA history after turning 35 years old: Alex English, Karl Malone, Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Jamal Crawford, LeBron James, and Stephen Curry. Harden is the first player in NBA history to score at least 50 points in a game at the age of 35 or older while on the second night of a back-to-back that his team won. “To see him come out and score 50 on a back-to-back at the age of 35 just says a lot about him and competing every night,” said Clippers head coach Tyronn Lue, whose Clippers team improves to 33-29, good enough for eighth in the Western Conference with 20 games left to play. “Playing 38 minutes again on a back-to-back, but we needed every bit of it.”

Scottie Pippen: When it came to discipline with sleep and diet, Charles Barkley wasn't the most focused in that regard


Scottie Pippen: Who impressed me the most? I was very impressed with Karl Malone, especially in the weight room. He is a beast because of how much he pushed himself. I mean, he stays in the gym for four hours and works until he can’t even pick up a cup of coffee. That’s just who he is—relentless. When it comes to discipline with sleep and diet, though, I wouldn’t say Charles Barkley was the most focused in that regard. Barkley was more into hanging out and enjoying himself. But someone like Chris Mullin stood out—he was incredibly disciplined. Him and Patrick Ewing were all about conditioning, day in and day out. As for who talked the most, outside of Michael—who was nonstop—it was definitely Charles Barkley. He was always poking and talking smack. Of course, people would throw it back at him, saying, ‘Well, you don’t have a championship.’ That’s when he’d have to tuck his tail between his legs."

Robert Horry on Anthony Edwards' take on MJ era: 'You just slapped Vince Carter, Karl Malone, Charles Barkley, Shawn Kemp in the face'


Robert Horry on Anthony Edwards’ take on MJ era: ‘For me I think he just, he was trying to be comic relief now because we that you think about it, you just slapped Vince Carter in the face you just slapped Karl Malone in the face, you just slapped Charles Barkley, you just slapped Shawn Kemp in the face… These are just some of the guys I can say off the top of my head… Then he said ‘I didn't watch back in the day’. Magic Johnson was out of the League when you was f*cking born, MJ was out of the League when you was born, so why you even commenting about MJ? So I just laugh. He’s is comedy relief when it comes to certain things because he put himself in that position after the crazy sh*t he said, like he's going to be the go-to guy of Team USA. How do you think you can be the go-to guy with LeBron, KD, and especially Steph?
