NEW YORK (AFP) — James Harden erupted for a 34-point triple-double as the Brooklyn Nets wrapped up their NBA Eastern Conference playoff series over the Boston Celtics with a 123-109 victory on Tuesday.
Harden added 10 rebounds and 10 assists while Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant also weighed in with big contributions as the Nets completed a 4-1 victory in the best-of-seven series.
Second seeds Brooklyn will now face the third-seeded Milwaukee Bucks and Giannis Antetokounmpo in the conference semifinals.
On Tuesday's evidence at the Barclays Center, Brooklyn will head into the semifinals brimming with confidence after signs that their big three of Harden, Irving and Durant are starting to click just at the right time.
While Harden led the scoring for Brooklyn, both Irving and Durant came up big as the Nets accelerated away in the fourth quarter after the Celtics had pulled to within seven points at the end of the third period.
Irving finished with 25 points while Durant added 24 points as Brooklyn piled on 37 points in a fourth-quarter scoring blitz.
