Jordan Bell worked on his Defensive game while he was an Oregon Duck, and has improved his game in his first NBA season. He was well known for the alley-oop pass as a Duck and thrilled fans and teammates with an alley-oop off the backboard to himself earlier this season with the Golden State Warriors.
On Monday night, in Game 6 of the Western Conference Finals, Jordan Bell stepped up on Defense against James Harden helping Golden State to their fourth straight NBA Finals appearance in a 101-92 win at Houston. The Rockets were able to game plan against Bell somewhat and Harden took advantage on several occasions, but in the end, it was Golden State that moved on.
