Harden s famous memes - sitting on the bench to help the team reverse

Basketball

The "Headband Gang" should be very familiar to older Rockets fans, but for Harden, he should be very impressed by this, because he was led by them for the first time as the core to play in the Western Conference Finals.

Why do you say so? We still have to return to the 2014-2015 season. That season, the Golden State Warriors emerged as a sudden move. The small ball storm instantly swept the entire league, and with a record of 67 wins and 15 losses, it was arguing with the entire league. However, the second-place competition in the Western Conference was also extremely fierce that year. The Rockets of the Magic combination and the Clippers of the All-Climb City kept biting very tightly in terms of wins, but in the end the Rockets ranked second with a small score advantage. In the first round of the playoffs, the Rockets won the Mavericks easily, while the Clippers faced the defending champion Spurs. That year, they actually thought these were two teams in the Western Conference Finals, so the first round of that round was also the most intensely analyzed before the game. As a result, it was no surprise. They played a tiebreaker and finally eliminated the defending champion with Paul's final victory. In the Western Conference semi-finals, the Clippers faced the Rockets and fell 1-3 after the first four rounds. Although G5 and they won, they all thought that the Clippers were going back to home to collect the first Western Conference Final in the team's history. G6 was also smooth in the first three quarters. Harden performed poorly and scored only 2 points in the third quarter. At that time, Rockets head coach Mike Hale directly abandoned him in the fourth quarter, but a magical scene appeared. The Rockets relied on these substitutes to reverse the score difference of 20 points and dragged the game into a tiebreak. This is also a famous scene in Harden, sitting on the bench to help the team reverse.

But I want to say one more thing. Many people actually only know that Harden sat on the bench to help the team reverse the situation, but they didn't know that Harden scored 31 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists in the tiebreak, and scored 11 points in the last quarter to lead the team to the Western Conference Finals. But... But Harden made 18 free throws in that game. You should know that Alexander, who was criticized for the penalty kicks this year, did not perform 18 free throws in a single game, so the ancestor is still the ancestor!

Finally, I would like to add that in the Western Conference Finals that year, the Warriors and the Rockets returned to the Western Conference Finals after decades, and also started the "Fire Warriors" later, but so far, the Rockets have never won the Warriors in the series.
