Harden excited to be with Nets, says "hope you can tell from my smile and play."

James Harden delivered 32 points and a triple-double in his Brooklyn debut, Kevin Durant scored a season-high 42 points in his first game back with his former teammate, and the Brooklyn Nets showed off their potent potential in a 122-115 victory over the Orlando Magic on Saturday night, and they might still get to another gear when Kyrie Irving rejoins them.

Harden had 14 assists and 12 rebounds after being cleared to play earlier in the afternoon after all the players in the blockbuster trade that brought him from Houston had completed their physicals. Harden also had nine turnovers and Durant had six, with some sloppiness while Harden got used to his new teammates. Harden had no practice time with the Nets and sure didn't need it, becoming the first player in franchise history to have a triple-double in his debut.
