Harden has been away from the Nets for a few days, and harden has also trained with his 76ers teammates, because of physical reasons, Harden also decided to miss the All-Star game to restore his body, and after the All-Star, Harden will be able to play for the 76ers. There may be many reasons why Harden left the Nets, plus the Nets have been losing during that time, and Irving is not willing to give injections, in this case, it is difficult to be happy with anyone.
Under Nash coaching, Harden's playing time is very long, which is very similar to his Rockets period, originally Harden decided to join the Nets to form a big three to reduce his pressure, but did not expect to play for so long, more importantly, teammates or part-time players, replaced by no one will be happy. According to journalist Jake Fischer, a person close to Harden revealed: "James Harden knows that at his age, he can't waste any time to win his first championship chance. ”
Before Harden left the Rockets, the Rockets sent a big contract, Harden did not accept, and in the last offseason, Harden did not choose to renew the contract with the Nets, which fully shows that Harden is not playing for money now, but really wants to win the championship, of course, no matter which team Harden is in, it must be a maximum salary contract. The Nets Big Three gave fans unlimited reverie, but injuries were in full swing, last season's playoffs, Irving was injured, Harden was injured, and now in the regular season, Durant is injured again, and Irving can only play on the road.
Injuries are partly a matter of luck, and part of it is a problem of protection of players, Nash's method of using core players will definitely have accidents sooner or later, many championship teams will control the playing time of core players, especially during the regular season, the playoffs can be let go of playing, but nash regular season is the same, now is the small ball era, the pace of the game is very fast, which also leads to players more likely to be injured.
After joining the 76ers, Harden's teammates have Embiid and Harris, young players have Sebel and Maxi, the overall lineup is still very good, now the 76ers are also a championship team, Harden's career honors, there is also a championship, I hope Harden can achieve his goals in the 76ers.
