James Harden on his shooting woes (0/11 from the arc): Who cares? We're winning
James Harden on slump: I'm 'just missing shots' but we're winning
James Harden ended Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals with 19 points but also 0 for 11 from the arc.
Per ESPN, He was 0-of-11 from 3-point range, matching the record set by former New York Knicks shooting guard John Starks in a Game 7 loss to the Rockets in the 1994 NBA Finals.
"Who cares?" Harden said of his shooting woes.
Harden has missed his past 20 3-point attempts, the worst drought of his career. He said he doesn't feel as if anything is off mechanically with his shot, however.
"Nothing," said Harden, who finished with 19 points on 5-of-21 shooting in Game 5. "I'm just missing shots. But we're winning, and I'm trying to compete on the defensive end and do other things to help my team win. But if we've got a guy like Eric Gordon making shots and being aggressive, who cares?"
