Following Irate James Harden’s Pipe Bomb on 76ers’ President, Shocking New Revelations Defend Former NBA MVP’s “Liar” Claim

Philadelphia 76ers star James Harden has been the talk of the NBA offseason so far. He had let his intentions be known to the world months ago. The former MVP wants to leave Joel Embiid and the 76ers and desires a move to the Los Angeles Clippers. However, negotiations have been tough due to 76ers high asking price. Just days after a new update for the Sixers fanbase, Harden dropped a bombshell.

During his trip to China, he made some explosive claims against the 76ers president, Daryl Morey. Interestingly, new reports suggest that Harden’s ‘liar’ claims carry some weight to it.

New reports come out in support of James Harden

Daryl Morey and Harden shared a great and fruitful relationship when the two were with the Houston Rockets. In fact, the 10-time NBA All-Star played his best basketball with the Rockets and Morey as president.

It looks like their relationship is all but over. After all, The Beard called Morey a ‘liar’. “Daryl Morey is a liar and I will never be a part of an organization that he’s a part of“, said the 2018 MVP during an Adidas event in China.

It looks like his claims might be true. According to eminent Philadelphia journalist, John Clark, Morey and his representatives never met with Harden’s camp.

“I’m told the Sixers never had an agreement, made an offer, or exchanged proposals with James Harden and his reps heading into this year’s free agency. It’s my understanding the Sixers told James and his reps they would meet with them the second free agency starts”, revealed Clark on Facebook.

This wasn’t a favorable situation for the 2018 MVP and his representatives. Subsequently, he opted for his player option during the start of the NBA Free Agency and requested a trade. Harden’s bad blood with Morey started with the 76ers not being willing to offer him a long-term contract.

What next for Harden?

It has been hours since Harden’s explosive ‘liar’ claims against the Philadelphia 76ers. We can certainly expect some movement for the assistant leader from last season in the coming days. However, it is not as straightforward as it sounds.

The 3-time scoring champ has a huge contract, and it looks like the 76ers have a high asking price as well. Harden had let his aspirations of joining the Los Angeles Clippers be known months ago, but the two teams are yet to reach an agreement. 

A few days ago, reports revealed the Sixers plan on bringing Harden back for pre-season camp. Moreover, they wanted him for the start of the season. This further worsened already bad relations between the player and the team.
