Harden 26 6 5, the Big Four all broke out and the Clippers found the best mode
26+6+5, what is this concept?Harden returned from injury, the Rockets teamed up for four people, and the Clippers finally found their form.
On November 30 in Beijing, the Clippers defeated the Kings 131-117 at home, and the four played well. Harden had a great performance, finishing with 26 points, 3 rebounds, 6 assists and 5 blocks. Jr. had 34 rebounds and three assists. George finished with 19 points, three rebounds and seven assists. In 19 minutes of play, Wilson had nine rebounds, five rebounds and eight assists.
In this game, Harden can be said to have played a real fire, he was in very good shape, shooting three points in a row, shooting 6 of 8 in the first quarter, 4 of 5 three-pointers, and scoring 17 points, in addition to 2 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 steals.
Renowned journalist Skipp Vélez commented: "The Rockets are in Sacramento, while the Kings just won the Warriors by 24 points in the last round. Harden scored 17 points in the first quarter, as did the Clippers 8-of-12. The Clippers won this game, and it was clear that they couldn't afford to lose again. ”
That's what Harden looks like right now, the Clippers desperately need Harden to attack, and in this game, he managed to do just that. After Harden scored, the Clippers won 35-27 in the first quarter. In the first half of the game, the Clippers scored 72-50, Harden scored 19 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists, 5 blocks, and a turnover, +24 for the whole team, and the team scored the highest score on the team. It was also the eighth half of Harden's career, and he scored more than five steals in the first half.
In this game, the Clippers played well, and both Xiaoka and George played well on the perimeter. In this game, Mann scored 18 points, Zubac scored 14 8 rebounds and 3 assists. Wei Shao has made a huge contribution to the team's No. 2 position.
And now the Clippers, a single Willie can't make up for the team's problems, and they have to rejuvenate Harden. So far, Harden has only scored 20+ points in three games. It's also a new high in Harden's career. Harden's five steals were his season-high highs. It was also the sixth time Harden has made five three-pointers and grabbed five blocks, behind George with eight and Arenas with five.
Harden had three of the best seasons in the NBA, scoring 30+ points, winning the NBA's scoring title three times, winning the assist title twice, making the regular season first team six times, being named to the third team once, and winning the regular season MVP in 2017-18.
At 34 years old, Harden has never suffered any serious injuries, but since he left the Rockets, he has not been able to perform at the same level as before, and his ability to handle the ball has been greatly affected, which is why his performance has fluctuated. And the reason why the Clippers bought Harden was to let him win a championship, so they had to let him show his potential.
He shot 45 from the field8%, 397%, and 852% of free throws. Everyone says that Thompson's form has declined a lot this season, but Harden's form has declined even more, even more than Thompson. Harden's current average per game has not yet reached 50% of his heyday. Harden's record is an average of 361, more than 21 points today.
The Clippers have to give the mustache more offensive opportunities, as in this game, but Harden hasn't shot more than two shots in the last four rounds, which is an unfair performance. Fortunately, in this battle, the strength of the beard has been greatly improved. This way of fighting is undoubtedly the most suitable for Harden.
