Rockets not focused on winning streak, James Harden: We're just out there hoopin'

James Harden says high-flying Rockets focused on play, not 17-game win streak

NBA
James Harden said Rockets are not worried on winning streak but on hoopin and play the right way.

The Rockets won 17 games in a row.

Per ESPN, "Nah," the Rockets superstar said when asked if the team one game ahead of the Golden State Warriors should be considered title favorites. "I feel like we're just out there swaggin' and hoopin'."

He set the early tone in Wednesday's win by scoring 21 of his 26 points in the first half, while Rockets guard Chris Paul added a crucial 16 points and 11 rebounds for a team that was mostly subdued after winning yet another game.
"Because we're just out there hoopin'," Harden said, describing why his team isn't overcome with emotion after extending the streak. "We're not worried about wins and losses right now. We're worried about playing the right way on both ends of the floor and that's going to carry over into the postseason. More times than not, 90 percent of the time, if you play the right way on both ends of the floor great things will happen. The result? Get wins."
