Philadelphia media blasted Harden: He's just a traitor The 76ers should pay to keep him away from the team

On October 28, Beijing time, Marcus Hayes, a columnist for the Philadelphia Inquirer, wrote an article to bombard Harden, calling Harden a traitor and believing that the 76ers should pay him to stay away from the team.

Marcus Hayes believes that Harden is responsible for the current situation, and that Harden can make it worse in the future. He put Harden and Ben Simmons on the same footing, saying that Harden is just a traitor, for the city, for the team, and for his teammates. Hayes supported the team not to let Harden board the plane to the road. "He's never supposed to be on this team's plane again, take him home, keep going, it's not worth spending any more time for him."

Hayes pointed out that Harden didn't want to report to 76ers training camp, and that his submission was only about money. "Everybody knows he's only here to avoid getting fined nearly $400,000 per game, which is what the 76ers would pay to stay away from him. 76ers owner Josh Harris has a net worth of $7 billion and a $389082 per night, so leaving that seat empty isn't a big deal for him. ”

If the 76ers keep Harden, what happens next?

Hayes wrote: "Two months of ineffective effort, a series of fake injuries, he would miss the game due to emotional distress or personal reasons, and the cohesion of the team was greatly affected... He may tell you that he will give it his all, don't trust him. The only thing Harden is passionate about is clubbing... They may miss Harden and lose to the Bucks by one point, but even with a 40-point loss, they should still avoid Harden. ”

Of course, this is just Marcus Hayes's personal opinion, but the Philadelphia Inquirer, where he works, is one of the most influential local newspapers. The newspaper ran his column, which also represented a voice in the Philadelphia media, tired of Harden's farce and expecting the team to solve the problem as soon as possible.

However, it is not that simple, the Clippers have withdrawn from trade talks, and other teams are not willing to pay a high price even if they are interested in Harden. After all, Harden is not eligible for a contract extension this season, and he can only wait until his contract ends before signing. It seems that it is only a matter of time before Harden leaves Philadelphia, but which team will he end up wearing?
