Houston only play at the 18th highest pace in the League. His numbers aren't inflated at all because of the D'Antoni boost, Rockets are just playing incredibly efficient basketball right now & look Godly with Harden on the floor.
The only difference between this year and previous seasons is D'Antoni is actually a real coach. The entire team is finally in sync and on the same page. Offensive sets are actually being run, there's way more movement off the ball this year & the younger guys (KJ, Dekker, Harrell) are actually getting shots. Eric Gordon is also the best offensive player Harden's ever played with in Houston, dude is a sniper
The team should also be way better defensively once Beverley returns & if Capela grows some balls & finally starts rebounding.
They are the 2nd worst defensive team in the league right now. You need more Beverly and Capela to be DPOY material for them to be way better defensively.
