The Boston Celtics defeated the James Harden and Joel Embiid-led Philadelphia 76ers, 114-102, in Game 3. This has now become the 76ers’ second straight loss to their rival in the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals. The culprit of this entire fiasco is said to be “The Beard” himself, who starred in Game 1. James Harden peaked in Game 1 against the Celtics, bursting for 45 points. However, since then, his performances have dipped. Harden’s outings in the past two games have drawn brutal criticism from fans.
In the past two games, James Harden has scored a combined total of 28 points. Harden performed comparatively better than Game 2, where the 76ers had suffered a blowout loss to the #2-seeded team. Harden, in Game 2, scored 12 points, making two field goals out of the 14 attempted, and missed all the six threes attempted. In Game 3, Harden scored 16 points and made three out of the 14 field goals attempted while making two out of the seven threes attempted.
James Harden singlehandedly led his team to victory in Game 1, making the fans believe that he was back. But now, fans can’t take any more of his unreliable performances and are calling him different names. While Harden failed to impress, Joel Embiid led the way, scoring 30 points and grabbing 13 boards.
For the Celtics, Jayson Tatum led the way with 27 points, five assists, and ten rebounds. Jaylen Brown followed with 23 points, five assists, and seven rebounds. Overall, the Celtics performed as a unit, unlike the 76ers, and have put immense pressure on their opponent, leading the series 2-1.
NBA Twitter RIDICULES James Harden for his AWFUL performance against the Celtics
James Harden cannot catch a break with his tragic performances in the playoffs as of late. Fans have taken to Twitter to highlight their anger against the 76ers star, calling him different names. While Harden provided some hope for the 76ers in Game 1, all of it away was taken away with his horrendous performances in Games 2 and 3. The 76ers’ dependence on their star players is costing them a lot, considering no one else in the squad performed.
While Harden put up a bad performance, so did others in the squad, and the entire burden to win the game went on Embiid. That is exactly what happened in Game 1, where the burden was on Harden as the Philadelphia 76ers barely skimmed past the Celtics. Take a look at some of the fan reactions to Harden’s awful performances in Games 2 and 3.
It’ll be interesting to see if the 76ers and Harden will be able to make their way back into the series again. It isn’t over till it’s over, as the 76ers are set to face the Celtics again in Game 4. It all goes down on Monday in the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia!
