James Harden of the Los Angeles Clippers shoots the ball while being defended by Luka Doncic of the Dallas Mavericks in the fourth quarter of Game 4 of the Western Conference First Round Playoffs at the American Airlines Center on April 28, 2024 in Dallas, Texas.
Harden scored 15 of his 33 in the fourth quarter, when Dallas — led by the star duo of Kyrie Irving and Luka Doncic — threatened to match the biggest comeback win in NBA playoff history. George made his first basket of the second half, a three-pointer, to put the Clippers back up 107-105 with 1:55 to play."Our back's against the wall, we can't go home down 3-1," Harden said of the Clippers' resolve in the face of the Mavs' bid to become the second team to rally from 31 points down to win a playoff game.
"Somehow we found a way," Brunson said. "When it's ugly and you can find a way to win like that, it's a plus for us.Embiid led Philadelphia with 27 points and 10 rebounds while Tyrese Maxey added 23 points. Elsewhere, the Milwaukee Bucks, down 2-1 in their series against the Indiana Pacers, were without Damian Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo in game four in Indianapolis. Lillard has a strained right Achilles tendon while Greek forward Antetokounmpo has a left calf strain.
