BREAKING: 76ers G James Harden is picking up his $35.6 million option and sides are beginning to work together in exploring trade scenarios, sources tell ESPN. It’s expected that Harden has played his last game for Philadelphia.
really weird decision by harden. You'd think this is his best chance to lock in a long term deal. Maybe he didn't like the vibes his agent was getting around the market.
I'm not surprised to see him take his option. According to spotrac there's only 5 teams under the cap and 7 teams with practical cap space so not a lot of possible suitors. He gets more money overall by waiting until next offseason to pursue a 2-3 year deal before retiring.
yeah but I'm not sure why he expects next year to be any better in that regard. CBA consequences will be even more set in stone and he'll be another year older.
Born in the Bay, went to school in Philly for 5 years or so, and now am in Seattle. Have been a neutral for most of my life but have always had a soft spot for Philly sports teams.
