In his return from injury last night, James Harden dropped 18 points and 11 assists against the Spurs while playing under a minutes restriction. When asked if he was surprised with how well he played given the time off, Harden had the perfect response.
“Not to, like, brag or anything, but I’m like, really, really good at this game,” Harden said to reporters after the game.

It just might be the perfect time for James Harden to get his first ring.
