James Harden is now the third-leading scorer in Rockets history

The Houston Rockets are certainly thankful to have James Harden in the organization. With a goaltending call last night, the Beard moved into third place all-time in Rockets history for points with 13,391 of them in his a little more than six seasons in Houston.

Harden has obviously been the best player in Houston since his arrival in 2012 after Daryl Morey and Co. took a risk and acquired him for their then-top scorer Kevin Martin + young talent. It has since turned into one of the most lopsided trades in NBA history, with the Thunder essentially getting just Steven Adams out of the deal.
