James Harden and the Cavaliers had their season come to an end in ugly fashion Monday night as they lost to the Knicks at home in Game 4, 130-93. That completed the sweep for New York and sent the franchise to the NBA Finals for the first time since 1999.
While the Knicks are now four wins away from a championship, which they haven’t won since 1973, Harden and the Cavs are left wondering what might have been if they were able to put up even the slightest of fights in the Eastern Conference finals. And despite not winning a game in the series, Harden said after Game 4 that he thought Cleveland was the better team.
