It’s the first quarter of the Sixers’ Feb. 27 road game against the Knicks — their second outing with James Harden on the floor. With 2:28 left in the period and 10 seconds left on the shot clock, Danny Green sets up in the strong-side corner as Furkan Korkmaz and Paul Millsap clear to the weakside. Harden is initiating the offense and flows into a pick-and-pop with Georges Niang. Once Harden gets a step on his defender and Niang slips the screen, sending Obi Toppin towards Harden to cut off a potential driving lane, Niang is instantly left wide open for three.
James Harden and Georges Niang fit together perfectly
