James Harden cooks up 50-point triple-double in win over Lakers

Winner, winner, chicken parm dinner!

James Harden and the Rockets won their second straight game on Thursday night with his best game of the season, scoring 50 points on 14-26 shooting, dishing 10 assists and grabbing 11 rebounds in a 126-111 victory of the Lakers.

Harden came to the arena today wearing snakeskin shorts, so at that point, the Lakers knew they had no chance of winning tonight. However, they put up a very good fight.

Los Angeles shot 59 percent from the field in the first half and 53.
