Oklahoma City Thunder star James Harden now has one more delicious honor to add to his resume; he's been made into a cake. Well, his likeness has.
Harden, who was named the NBA Sixth Man of the Year, had his head created in cake form by the nice people at Homeland Stores in Oklahoma City. It's really a good representation of Harden, and the detail in the headband, mohawk and beard are really impressive.
No word on whether Harden gets to have his cake or eat it, too.

The Los Angeles Lakers knew that winning in Oklahoma City would be a pretty tough task. On Monday night, however, it proved to be downright impossible.
Kobe Bryant turned in another heck of a night with 42 points--nearly half of what the Lakers scored as a team--but it was only enough to keep the Lakers competitive. Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook were not going to be denied a chance to play in the Western Conference finals, and since the San Antonio Spurs were already done and waiting on an opponent they figured they could give them one.
Westbrook led the way with 28 points (two of them off the impressive steal and improbable shot in the above video); his partner in crime Durant chimed in another 25 points and 10 rebounds to lead the Thunder to a 106-90 win in Game Five of their series with the Los Angeles Lakers.
With the Chicago Bulls already out of the Eastern Conference Finals and the Miami Heat struggling without Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade playing hurt, the Western Conference Finals between the Spurs and Thunder may very well be where the actual NBA championship will be decided this year.

NBA Playoff Roundup – Spurs Quiet Thunder
Game two of the Western Conference Finals was very well played by both teams, but San Antonio showed Oklahoma City that they're going to have bring their A++ game if they want to win in the Spurs' house.
San Antonio 120 - Oklahoma City 111
I'm sure that if OKC coach Scott Brooks knew his big three were going to score 88 points combined, he'd feel pretty good going into the game. Kevin Durant had 31, James Harden dropped 30 and Russell Westbrook had 27, but it wasn't enough as San Antonio dominated throughout the game.
Tony Parker led the Spurs with 34 points, shooting a ridiculous 16-21 from the floor. Manu Ginobili had 20 off the bench, including a rainbow three late in the fourth to effectively end the Thunder's comeback hopes. The other scary stat for OKC was that Tim Duncan only shot 2-11 for 11 points, and the Spurs still owned the game. Is the Series Over? »
