Miami (AFP) - James Harden drained the game winner on a turnaround jumper with two seconds left as the Houston Rockets clipped the Stephen Curry-less Golden State Warriors 97-96 in a first-round NBA playoff contest.
Harden's clutch basket Thursday allowed the Rockets to cut the Warriors series lead in the Western Conference tussle to two games to one.
"The last shot was typical of what James does," coach J.B. Bickerstaff said. "The move, we've seen before.
