James Harden’s CLUTCH 42-Point Performance In 76ers Game 4 W! #PLAYOFFMODE



James Harden joins Allen Iverson (3x) as the only players in 76ers franchise history to score 40+ points in multiple games of a Playoff series.

Before James Harden, Kevin Durant in the 2012 semifinals for OKC vs Lakers was the last player to have two different go ahead game-winning shots with under 20 seconds remaining in a single playoff series:
Durant made game-winning field goals in Game 2 (18.6 secs left) and Game 4 (13.7 secs left)

Led by James Harden’s 42 points, 8 rebounds, 9 assists, including the go-ahead three with 19.0 seconds remaining in overtime, the No. 3 seed Philadelphia 76ers defeated the No. 2 seed Boston Celtics in Game 4, 116-115. Joel Embiid added 34 points and 13 rebounds for the 76ers in the victory, while Jayson Tatum tallied 24 points, 6 assists, 4 blocks and a career-high 18 rebounds for the Celtics. This best-of-seven series is now tied, 2-2, with Game 5 taking place on Tuesday, May 9 (7:30 p.m. ET, TNT).

With his 47th career 30+ point Playoff game tonight, James Harden has passed Dirk Nowitzki for the 12th most such games in NBA history.

  1. 42 piece lemon pepper wing meal with a game winner chicken dinner 🍗 hold this L Celtics and media for slandering this man 🤣😂💀

  2. And Emiid is the “MOST VALUABLE PLAYER” lmao this year MVP is a joke, Jokic should’ve won it. But I guess crying and not been white (Perkins take) can win you an MVP

  3. I’ve been following James forever and he’s never ever been this consistent in the playoffs I thought he was going to be a career playoff underperformer his whole damn career I hope I’m wrong

  4. James harden still a top ten player in the NBA. If harden keeps this up, 76ers can make the NBA finals

  5. No offense to Embid, but if the Sixers wants to win Harden should be the 1st option on offense. If the defense collapses to Harden, more open looks for Embid and his teammates. On the other hand, Embid should dominate the paint and not settle for outside shots.
