James Harden wants trade to Philadelphia

Although Brooklyn Nets guard James Harden wants a trade to the Philadelphia 76ers, he has resisted making that formal request out of fear of the public backlash that would come with asking out of a second franchise in consecutive seasons, sources told ESPN.

Harden gave Houston some absolutely great years, but the break-up was beyond messy and the way he went about it was beyond messy – 11:00 AM Barbara Barker @meanbarb
So Harden is back in New York rehabbing. Nash says he will not join team in Miami Saturday. Question of course is whether he will be joining another team. – 10:51 AM David Hardisty @clutchfans
I would fully welcome bringing James Harden back to Houston in 2023 — but only if the Rockets trade him a few months later for four unprotected first-round picks and four unprotected first-round pick swaps. – 10:45 AM Brian Lewis @NYPost_Lewis
I asked Steve Nash if his conversations with Harden have been more casual and at practice, or organizational level with GM Sean Marks about his #Nets future. Said it’s the Former. – 10:43 AM Brian Lewis @NYPost_Lewis
James Harden isn’t in DC and Steve Nash doesn’t expect him in Miami vs the #Heat. #nets – 10:41 AM Alex Schiffer @Alex__Schiffer
Nash said neither Harden nor LaMarcus Aldridge will join the Nets in Miami on Saturday. – 10:41 AM Nick Friedell @NickFriedell
Nash says that Harden and Aldridge stayed home to rehab. He does not expect them to play in Miami on Saturday. – 10:38 AM Alex Schiffer @Alex__Schiffer
Steve Nash again says James Harden isn’t getting traded. Adds he hasn’t talked to him about the deadline. Has no update on Joe Harris. – 10:38 AM Brian Lewis @NYPost_Lewis
Nash reiterates he expects James Harden to be with the #Nets past the deadline. – 10:37 AM Nick Friedell @NickFriedell
Nash says he feels the same way he did the other day — that James Harden will not be traded today. – 10:37 AM Tommy Beer @TommyBeer

2021 1st rd pick swap,

2023 1st rd pick swap,
2024 1st rd pick,

2026 1st rd pick,
2027 1st rd pick swap. – 9:20 AM Doug Smith @SmithRaps
Has James Harden somehow made Ben Simmons something of a sympathetic character in this whole thing?
That’s magic – 9:14 AM Jason Dumas @JDumasReports
James Harden has wanted this deal done for a while. He trusts Michael Rubin. He trusts Daryl Morey. He wants to play with Joel Embiid. The Nets & Sixers have been engaged in talks. It’s all about posturing. As I stated before, a game of cat & mouse. – 9:12 AM Michael Grange @michaelgrange
It would seem to me that James Harden doesn’t *exactly* have a tab on the pulse of the people. – 9:09 AM Dan Favale @danfavale
also: harden is definitely going to get backlash. already is. he chose brooklyn initially—over philly, no less. this is absurd.
but relative to how ridiculous this trade request should be, a certain someone has provided him with *more* than adequate cover for calling a mulligan. – 9:04 AM Tom Ziller @teamziller
Heel Harden is clearly the best Harden. This is a good direction for the character. – 9:01 AM Tommy Beer @TommyBeer

the idea that harden is worried about public backlash is interesting given his extremely public indifference at times on the court and the wildly public leaking of his fear of public backlash to the most prominent nba news breaker in the biz – 8:54 AM Stefan Bondy @SBondyNYDN
James Harden scared of public backlash so instead sits out games and makes his discontent known through back channels. Lame stuff. Time to look in the mirror. Never took a team to the Finals. Chris Paul didn’t want to play with him. Maybe give up the ball and problem is you. – 8:54 AM Alex Schiffer @Alex__Schiffer
Happy deadline day. We’ll know by this afternoon if James Harden will remain a Net. There’s pros and cons to a deal and more uncertainty along the way. On this entire Orion Welles/War of the Worlds-type saga: theathletic.com/3121904/2022/0… – 8:53 AM James Plowright @British_Buzz
I hope Sean Marks sends Harden to Sacramento in spite – 8:51 AM Dan Favale @danfavale
congrats to harden on formally dropping his informal trade request – 8:47 AM Chris Mannix @SIChrisMannix
James Harden wanted out of Houston. James Harden reportedly now wants out of Brooklyn. Among the questions Sixers brass has to ask: Is it really worth trading for—and presumably lavishing a new deal worth more than a quarter of a billion—on a player this unpredictable? – 8:45 AM Vivek Jacob @vivekmjacob
Hey James Harden, do you want out of your second franchise in consecutive seasons? pic.twitter.com/erTBbbGYir – 8:45 AM Bobby Marks @BobbyMarks42
James Harden said it was “not about the money” when he did not sign an extension. If he is not traded by 3PM ET, we will find out if that is correct.
The cap space route for Philly would cost Harden between $70-$100M plus diminish a roster that he would be signing with. – 8:41 AM Tommy Beer @TommyBeer
Hahahahhaha
Harden wants to be traded but hasn’t leaked that he wants to be traded until he just leaked that he wants to be traded

One of the real challenges for Brooklyn is there’s not a true consensus internally: One train of thought is to trade James Harden — and not risk losing him in FA. The other? Try and win a title right now with Harden. Sean Marks has a tough decision to make. #Nets #Sixers – 12:36 PM Jason Dumas @JDumasReports
Update: Sixers have refused to include Tyrese Maxey in any deal with Brooklyn. Nets have countered with an asking price of Simmons, Curry, Thybulle, and Drummond. Sixers are hesitant to include Curry. Any deal would likely send Patty Mills to Philly aside from Harden. – 12:35 PM Alvaro Martin @AlvaroNBAMartin

The one thing about Harden, in addition to a decline in performance, a potentially chronic hamstring issue and a tendency to blow up elite, hand-picked teams is … what if his shooting goes MIA the playoffs again? I’m sure fans in Philly will be understanding. – 10:54 AM Anthony Puccio @APOOCH

More on this storyline

Harden is hopeful that 76ers president of basketball operations Daryl Morey secures a trade for him prior to Thursday’s 3 p.m. ET NBA trade deadline, but Morey and Nets general manager Sean Marks have yet to become engaged in serious dialogue on a deal, sources said. There’s still an expectation that the sides will communicate Thursday and the possibility of a deal remains, but both teams are left measuring the risk-reward of a Harden deal, sources said. -via ESPN / February 10, 2022 Kristian Winfield: Woj on NBA Countdown doubles down and says the Nets and 76ers have not had any meaningful conversations around a deal including Ben Simmons and James Harden. -via Twitter @Krisplashed / February 9, 2022 Jordan Schultz: Barring a significant change, Tyrese Maxey will not be included in any potential Ben Simmons-James Harden trade, multiple sources confirm. #Sixers #Nets -via Twitter @Schultz_Report / February 9, 2022
