James Harden’s fourth-quarter scoring drought vs. Celtics worse than Ben Simmons’ infamous 2021 performance – Harden didn’t score a single point in the fourth quarters of Games 5-7 against Boston

He didn’t even get at least 2 pts from his usual foul hunting?
That’s crazy
IcyMission3
Don’t worry he’ll be ready for game 8. He’s due for another 40-piecer

Wait a second….it was games 5-7??? What the FUCK

Is harden the worst big moment superstar ever? Like genuinely I’m not trying to hate but I can’t think of anyone else who’s been this bad when it matters most.

What’s wrong with this guy? He has super star talent and is the biggest no show guy in the playoffs.

Teams who think harden can get it done during postseason deserves to lose every year

The Refs swallow the whistle in the playoffs and hardens bullshit fishin’ for fouls play is not the business!!

But everyone on r/NBA told me today that Harden was an all-star and deserved none of the blame.

2 choker MVPs on 1 team. RIP sixers

No way this is real. That’s horrible… and they managed to win one of these games.

And then he nonchalantly walked away like it didn’t matter.

Not only that but he was falling down more than Embiid has all series, he looked like Ben and Embiid’s ugly lovechild.

I mean he won them 2 games.
Seems like he isn’t washed, more so bad conditioning. He can’t put together multiple games in a row playing at the level he did in game 1 and game 4.
Looked gassed in the 2nd half of the last two games.

I don’t understand how you don’t score a point in full quarter when you are number 1 or 2 player on the team.

Agreed! Harden is supposed to score. He’s supposed to be the man late. Scoring was third on Simmons’ to-do list, after defending and playmaking.

As soon as I saw them try out the double big lineup in game 5, I figured we’d be fucked if they went any further with it.

Y’all replaced the Young Socialite with the Old Socialite.

Harden the only dude to win his team two games and still be bad enough to get clowned

Harden was at his best as 6MotY with OKC don’t @ me
Swagsuke_Nakamura
I was happy to see him with the ball in the 4th. Take all the shots you want dude, we were not bothered one bit
OhiOstas
Bulls fans tryna convince themselves to take this dude (and a hefty contract) because he had that game 1 😂 this is so embarrassing and should scare away any team that even cares about playoffs
gamer15807
Can we write an apology to Ben Simmons now?
Raging_Professor
Typical Harden choke job. If the refs won’t bail him out he is useless. Drived just to kick out and pass to his teammates so they can bail him out. 😭

Harden sucks, I am glad so many people can see this clearly
Cavaniiii
The was getting into the paint off drives so often and then kicking it to shooters who were missing wide open shots… I miss when he would attack the basket or at least draw fouls, he doesn’t seem to want to score. The stat sheet is never going to be kind to you when your teammates are also missing their shots.
It’s a completely different sport, but in football (soccer) we have xG and xA stats where its expected goals and expected assists. Obviously in basketball its harder to calculate, but the amount of wide open bricks I saw yesterday was crazy.
Harden and Embiid rightly getting the brunt of the criticism, but good lord Harris is robbing a living.

Yeah Harden was cheeks
But how did Philly get Harden. Tell me that.
It’s still Ben’s fault. Clearly.
Hela
Wait..no way this is a real stat
Wait what…ain’t no way
