It feels like Harden may have fumbled hard by not taking the extension the Nets offered him. His numbers could come down a bit this season due to sharing the ball with WB, PG, and Kawhi. What contract offers do you think he’ll be getting during the summer?
I don’t think the nets have anything to do with his current contract situation. I believe he was probably promised a max by the Sixers for taking a pay cut to get house and Tucker. Makes the most sense and then they didn’t want to pay it or pay the luxury tax.
Morey will offer him the max
Look at that subtle colouring. The tasteful thickness.
The contract will be in chinese so…

Around 10-15mil 🤔 realistically, but he could get more if his play improves. Only thing I still can’t get over is how harden really left a team that was perfect for his abilities. Philly was perfect for him. I hate he ruined the clippers too.
idk but it will be in RMB
a lot
he didn’t “fumble” it, he just didn’t want it. same way he didn’t want the one Houston offered him to try and get him to stay, and same way he didn’t force Philly to pay up right away and instead gave them a discount. harden has a lot of income from other sources; the difference between the max possible he could get from an nba team and what he’d be happy giving them for a good fit isn’t something he’s that concerned about. if anything, it’s about the years so he can end his career somewhere (probably why that was a talking point for him about philly). he’s from LA, he can move his mom (who is sick) out here, etc.
he’s trying to find the right basketball situation. it was reported he was willing to give morey a deal if he actually negotiated with him instead of ghosting him.
I highly doubt Morey is such a good boy that he obeyed the rule and ghosted Harden….
