All signs point to Harden declining his $35.6 million option on Thursday and entering this summer as an unrestricted free agent.
"James has a decision to make, and I’d be very happy if he came back," Nurse said when he was hired.
Harden, who turns 34 in August, played the last few months with nagging left Achilles soreness and flashed only glimpses of his Houston prime. He scored 45 points in Game 1 and 42 in Game 4 victories of the Eastern Conference semifinal loss against Boston, and was 0 for 6 on 3s in Game 2 and Game 6 losses. He scored only nine points in Game 7, and that included going scoreless in the second half.
"I mean, they can’t stop him," Torrel Harris said on the podcast. "Nobody in the league can stop him. So he’s proven that over his career, even when he was with the Clippers." Harris said he was "OK" with that role and knew if the 76ers were going to win a championship, he would be the player to "sacrifice from that group.""Trade speculation, casual Sixers fans, they would trade me for a Crumbl Cookie," he said.
