James Harden has performed admirably for the Los Angeles Clippers in the first round of the NBA playoffs... Until now.
Harden created terrible NBA Playoffs history in the Clippers' Game 5 defeat to the Dallas Mavericks.
He had seven points, seven assists, and four rebounds in the 123-93 defeat.
Harden scored seven points on a 2-for-12 shooting night.
That's where the new record was established.
Harden now holds the NBA Playoff record for the most games with 10 or more shot attempts in two or fewer games.
This is the tenth time in Harden's postseason career it has happened.
To make matters worse for James Harden, Jaden Hardy of the Mavericks outscored him in five minutes of play. He scored 14 points in Dallas' win.
