NBA analyst, Kendrick Perkins took to First Take on Monday morning. "No one should ever put James Harden before Dwayne Wade because of how he fails in the postseason, especially in Game 7's. He's allergic to Game 7's. He breaks out in rashes," Perkins said.

James Harden appeared to conquer his eternal elimination game woes by turning in one of the best late-series playoff performances of his career to save the Los Angeles Clippers in Game 6 against the Denver Nuggets.

The Los Angeles Clippers got rocked by the Denver Nuggets in Game 7 on Saturday, losing 120-101 in a blowout that was nowhere near as close as even that wide margin would indicate. With under nine minutes to go the Clippers trailed by 35.
