Harden assists George with a three-pointer
Coach Spo offered a joint defense, Harden stretched out his hand at the top of the arc to signal, Theis came to block and dismantle, and the four players of the Heat were attracted by his gestures, but he took advantage of the moment when Herro was distracted, and handed the ball to George at the top of the right arc without looking at the pass, and handed the ball to George at the top of the right arc.

Harden hangs Zubac
On the left sideline, encountering a double attack, under normal circumstances, the Heat's defense will cause opponents to make mistakes, but Harden used his left hand to complete a high toss connection, the angle, strength, and accuracy were just right, and the ball crossed the head of Dunroe and passed to Zubac, who easily ate small.
As above, it is the data that can directly reflect Harden's assist magic, and during the game, there are offensive rounds instigated by him, but in the end it is not his assist, which also comes from his magic, two typical pictures.

Harden and Leonard are on the same right side, the Heat had to focus on defense, and he called Zubac to block and dismantle, given the ability of the two to match, all the Heat's defensive focus has been poured on the strong side, Harden shook his left hand and passed the ball to Powell, when Dunroe had to make up the defense, Powell passed another hand, and Coffey was empty for three points.
