James Harden

James Harden made a striking reflection after the New York Knicks defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers 4-0 in the Eastern Conference Finals. The guard stated that, despite the series outcome, he believes Cleveland has the better team.

"It was 4-0, but I don't think we had our best chance... Honestly, I believe we are the better team. We didn't show it in the series," Harden said after the elimination of the Cavaliers who were swept by New York and missed out on the NBA Finals.

Evan Mobley sought to convey calm despite the challenging situation of the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference finals. After the 2-0 loss to the New York Knicks, the power forward recalled that the team had already overcome a similar situation in the previous round. "We've been through this before," explained Mobley, confident that winning both games in Cleveland could completely change the dynamics of the series.

James Harden also avoided dramatizing the defeat and pointed directly to offensive inefficiency as the main reason for the stumble. "We simply didn't make shots," summarized the guard, as the Cavaliers missed numerous open shots from the perimeter. Cleveland believes the game plan worked and that the score would have been different with a more typical three-point shooting percentage. The current focus is on adjusting defensive details and regaining confidence in front of their home crowd.
