James Harden put together one of the most dominant stretches of individual play in recent memory, as a member of the Houston Rockets. For eight seasons, Harden willed the franchise to the postseason, irrespective of what was around him. In five of those seasons, the Rockets were a lock for 50 wins. Harden had three different coaches during that span (Kevin McHale, JB Bickerstaff, Mike D’Antoni) and took two of them to the Western Conference Finals.
