James Harden is officially ruled out for Game 4

Steve Nash confirmed on Saturday, on the eve of Game 4 against the Bucks, that James Harden will be out on Sunday with the Nets holding a 2-1 lead in the series. The Nets want to be cautious with the guard and he continues to heal from this hamstring strain. Nash did say that Harden is “doing very well” and he continues to progress.

Brooklyn is 2-1 without the Beard in the postseason, but the Nets have had plenty of experience playing without Harden this year. Brooklyn is 29-7 with Harden in the lineup this season, and without him, Brooklyn has a record of 19-17, according to statmuse.com.

It isn’t hard to tell that the Nets guard takes this team to another level when he is playing. We’re only seeing a glimpse of what this team can be in this Nets-Bucks series.
