Du Xiaoshuai returned, but he did not expect that the Nets were greeted in a losing way, which was a very bad result, and Durant would not like it! But one thing, for Durant, is what he's waited for the longest, and what he's been looking forward to since the beginning of the season, is that his most familiar partner Harden is back.
Harden in the past and early season is obvious to everyone, Harden used free throws as an excuse, but the Eagles core Trae Young openly responded: "The entire league is not the only one for you!" Let Dengge be dumbfounded in an instant, the past Dengge suddenly did not move, and could not shoot, and the fans even joked: "32-year-old Harden, early into the old age!" ”
But after the Christmas war, Harden has become different! The Christmas war with the Lakers is what fans are looking forward to, although the lack of Durant, thick eyebrows and other big names, the lineup of both sides is not complete, but because of the relationship between Harden and James, so that fans are willing to keep looking forward to it. And this game, neither of them disappointed, James 39 points, 9 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 steals and 1 block, let the fans see a small lineup, playing the fifth position, the 37-year-old Zhan terror moment. In contrast, Harden was the most unexpected!
Harden's legs moved, and they moved faster. Without Durant's help, he and Mills carried the team's banner, shooting 10 of 25, 3 of 8 three-pointers, 36 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists of the big triple-double, the Lakers were about to reverse the game at one point, but harden's ghost hand Claxton played 2+1 at the crucial moment, completely killing the game. And Harden has continued this state, away against the Clippers, Harden is still a single core team, the game started 40.1 minutes, 25 of 15 shots, 9 of 4 three-pointers, 60.0% shooting percentage, 39 points, 8 rebounds and 15 assists; the same is true in today's game against the 76ers, although the Nets lost, but Harden did not lose. 39.9 minutes of playing time, 20 shots, 45.0% shooting, 33 points, 14 rebounds, 10 assists and 2 steals.
