James Harden Euro Step is Gorgeous

James Harden just gave all the young ballers a textbook Eurostep to practice all weekend. In Houston’s rout over 98-81 the Duncan & Manu-less Spurs, Harden had a solid 20-6-6 performance, but it was this Eurostep move he performed in the first quarter against a stunned Cory Joseph that won the night.

Harden, trigger-happy as ever to start the season (only shooting 41 percent from the field, but he’s getting to the line 11 times a night), is a joy to watch at the offensive end, and actually looks more comfortable with Chandsome Parsons going to Dallas.

A quick note on Houston’s 6-0 start: Don’t believe the hype. The win over the Spurs has an asterisk because Pop sat a couple stars, and the only other team they’ve beaten with a winning record is the 3-2 Heat, who will be a barely-over-.500 team come April.

Houston could stretch this start to 9-3 before the big November 22nd game against Dallas.
