James Harden's performance in the playoffs has been questioned, and in the current NBA league, harden and Westbrook brothers have always been criticized for playoffs. This season, Westbrook missed the playoffs, harden's team, the 76ers entered the playoffs with fourth place in the East. Embiid and Harden's inner and outer duo, some fans think it is very strong: they are the strongest inside and outside blocking duo in the active league; some fans think that Embiid and Harden are not strong in the playoffs: so they are not optimistic about the 76ers' prospects for the championship.

The gap between the inside line is really huge, Zhuang Shen was hung up by Horford to fight, there was no way to fight back, and Clarkston played no effect.
