Obviously, James Harden made a clutch 3 against the Spurs in 2012. Game 5 on the road, stepback jumper over Kawhi.

But that was a decade ago & James Harden was just a 6th man for OKC.

As the title says, why doesn't he have any iconic playoff moments for Houston Rockets?

He's got more than Steph, that's for sure.

Because he isn't good in the playoffs. Some rise to the occasion, others falter in big moments. The Beard has always been a guy who hasn't shown up in the playoffs. He gets knocked out by the Warriors pretty much every year and the one year he didn't was probably his most embarrassing.

Playing the Spurs in a game 6 at home where they don't have Kawhi.

Probably you’re only quality, and most intelligent post ever.

Quite ironic that you had to sarcastically congratulate him on his most intelligent post ever when you don't know even know the difference between your and you're. ITT: an American who can't properly speak his own language.

Its crazy how much emphasis people put on a block that was so easy to time and track given that Harden absolutely had to take that shot since no time was left..

He will this year, he faces his ex-teammate who he was sick of and approved to get traded.

I believe in James :applause: :rockon:

2012 Harden and 2014 Kawhi were both put in similar positions during their pre primes as both were on great teams in the finals. One stepped up and dominated and the other completely vanished. That has basically been the story of their careers since that time as well.

It's just sad to see that he and his team have never won a single playoff series against the warriors since the latter came back in the postseason 7 years ago

I said this was HIS most intelligent post ever. Not my most intelligent post ever.

I used talk to text and quickly posted. Not a big deal, or indicative of my grasp of my own language.

What is this a grammar message board? Your post is stupid as hell, because his post was intelligent (finally) from a basketball perspective. Not due to spelling and grammar.

And if this as a new member is your new shtick, it’s been done much better before you arrived.

You’re a moron, and a dork if you’re scouring a basketball message board looking for grammatical errors.

Fair play to Harden.

Just got his first ever signature playoff moment for Houston.
