The James Harden and Philadelphia 76ers saga continues to deliver. Days after calling Daryl Morey a liar in China, Harden has dropped another bomb on the Sixers’ front office. After he visited China, Harden returned to the USA for a charity event in Houston.

In a brief interview with KHOU 11, Harden doubled down on his comments about Morey, destroying any possibility of mending his relationship with the Sixers President.

James Harden believes there is no coming back

Responding to Jason Bristol about the current line of communication between Harden and the 76ers, and his patience amid all the drama, Harden said, “I have been patient all summer”.

He is focusing on staying in shape and getting ready for next season. Harden’s agent revealed that he has been working out twice daily and will start next season in the best form of his career.

Bristol asked Harden, “Too late to repair the relationship?” to which he responded, “Uh, I think so.” Harden’s comment proves that the situation has escalated beyond repair, and the only way out is to trade Harden to a new team and start over. Harden has shown no interest in suiting up for the Sixers and wants to play with Kawhi Leonard and Paul George in LA.

Harden continues to give back to his former city

Since leaving the Houston Rockets, Harden has not been able to find a permanent home. He played the best basketball of his career in Houston and won his only MVP award in 2018 with the team. Harden has not forgotten to give back to the city where he spent the majority of his career. He is currently in Houston for the JH-Town weekend, which is a charity event for the community.

During the event, Harden will be part of a celebrity softball game and was spotted practicing at Yates High School. He will also hand out backpacks, shoes, and scholarships over the weekend and feed more than 4000 families. Even after leaving the city, Harden continues to return and give back to the community. “It has a special place in my heart, and I am connected to it”, said Harden. This was after he was asked why the city of Houston was so special to him.

Even with the surrounding drama, Harden is focused on helping the people of Houston to the best of his abilities. He spent nine years with the Houston Rockets and will cherish his time there, no matter whichever team he suits up for next. His exit from Philadelphia looks inevitable, and hopefully, he can find a city like Houston where he can spend multiple seasons.
