Dwight Howard has admitted that the Houston Rockets needed a "big game" from James Harden to level their playoff series against the Los Angeles Clippers.
After losing the opening fixture in their Western Conference semi-final, the Rockets came from behind in the fourth quarter to secure a 115-109 victory in game two.
The center told ESPN: "We needed a game, a big game from him, and he came out and did his thing. He hit some tough shots, but it was a tough win for us. They're a tough team and they never go away."
Harden scored half of his 32 points in the fourth quarter to secure the win.
