Harden 28+6+8+2 missed the best player today

Tianwangshan Harden was completely out of touch. Today, he fought for life and death at home, and Harden finally stood up and refused to go home. In the second quarter, he scored 17 points in a single quarter and met with Westbrook's teacher. In the first half, Deng Ge made 7 of 10 shots, 2 of 4 three-pointers, 5 of 5 free throws, and scored 21 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 steal.

Harden reduced his personal offense in the third quarter, scored 2 points in a single quarter, but sent 4 assists to help the team lead the double-digits into the final quarter.

In the whole game, Deng Ge played 47 minutes, made 10 of 20 shots, made 3 of 8 three-pointers, made 5 of 5 free throws, scored 28 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.

plus two steals today, Harden's personal playoff career steals reached 280 times, surpassing Drexler (278 times) to rank 12th in history, with Paul (287 times).

But even so, the best player today still cannot be given to him, because Brunson next door is even more explosive.

Brunson 40+4+7 three-pointer to send the Pistons home

Those who can beat the above stars as the best player today must have done something amazing, and today this person is undoubtedly Brunson of the Knicks.

The Knicks were once turned around by the Pistons in the fourth quarter, but in the last minute, they had a small climax and successfully reversed, eliminating their opponent 4-2 to advance to the second round.

Brunson once again showed the strength of a superstar. He scored 15 points in the first quarter, made 8 of 13 shots in the first half, 1 of 4 three-pointers, 3 of 3 free throws, and scored 20 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists.

He did not lose his firepower in the second half, and he led the team to overtake the score with another 10 points in the third quarter. In the last moment of the final quarter, the Knicks' offense was all supported by him alone. With 4.3 seconds left in the game, he beat Osar's big heart and scored three-pointer!

In the whole game, he played 42 minutes, made 15 of 33 shots, 3 of 10 three-pointers, 7 of 8 free throws, and scored 40 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists.

At the same time, Datou also set two records:

1. This year's playoffs, he has scored 30+ five times, ranking first in the league.

2. In the past three seasons, there have been only three people in the league in the 30+ playoff games to more than 15 times, including Tatum, Jokic and Brunson.

So, he is definitely the best player today.
