The Philadelphia 76ers star James Harden shook the NBA world when he moved out of the Brooklyn Nets ahead of the trade deadline in the previous season. Similarly, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant broke the internet with their blockbuster trade ahead of Thursday’s deadline, officially marking the end of the legendary Nets trio. Following the trade, fans speculated various reasons behind the trio’s exit from the camp. However, Harden recently opened up about the reasons that led to the departure of the stars one by one.

10x NBA All-Star Harden made it to the headlines when the Nets traded him for the Sixers’ Ben Simmons ahead of the 2021-22 NBA season trade deadline. After the exit of Irving and KD, the media attention again has fallen on the Sixers’ star for foreseeing the exit before them. However, Harden recently responded to the media, pointing out the dysfunctionality on Brooklyn’s side.
