James Harden led the Rockets to a comeback win over the LeBron-less Cavs with 27 points and eight assists to complete the rally. The Beard was especially good down the stretch, scoring 18 of his total points in the 4th quarter.
“That’s what the first three-quarters were for — to figure out what they were doing,” Harden said. “Even when we got down 20 points, we felt confident because they weren’t shooting the ball well, even when they were winning.”
