Harden on Loss: ‘Everything falls on my shoulders’

MVP candidate James Harden accepted that he will be subjected to intense criticism after having one of the worst playoff performances of his career Thursday, when the Houston Rockets’ season ended in humiliating fashion.

“You’ve got to take it for what it is,” Harden said. “Everything falls on my shoulders. I take responsibility for it, both ends of the floor. You know, it’s tough, especially the way we lost at home for Game 6. But it happened. Now we move forward.”
