Harden, into his 11th season in the NBA, has had similar success. He has been the NBA Scoring Champion for two seasons running, and has a good chance to win it for the third consecutive season this year.

Iverson has been vocal of his appreciation for Harden. In an interview with ESPN earlier this year, Iverson said: “Harden deserves all the praise that he gets. There’s always going to be somebody out there saying he could do something else better than what he’s doing. I think he just keeps his foot to the pedal. Because I know his teammates love having him in that foxhole and rocking with him night in and night out.”
