Daily News | James Harden has been a model citizen and teammate in his short time with the Sixers
MILWAUKEE — The rhetoric coming out of Brooklyn would lead you to believe James Harden was a bad teammate at the end of his tenure there.
But the rhetoric coming from the 76ers is the complete opposite. They’ll tell you that Harden has been a welcomed addition and positive influence on his teammates.acquired Harden and Paul Millsap from the Brooklyn Nets on Thursday in exchange for Ben Simmons, Seth Curry, Andre Drummond and two first-round picks. The move was made to accommodate Harden and Simmons, who both wanted out of their former situations. This came after Harden had already forced a trade from the Houston Rockets to the Nets 14 months earlier.The way Harden left the Rockets and Nets brought some skepticism about how he would fit in with the Sixers..
“He just thought the more time with the guys, the more time on the floor [would be beneficial],” Rivers said of Harden accompanying the team. “I mean yesterday he went hard. Because of that, all the young guys had their hardest practice, going by their pucks. They ran more yesterday than they did the whole year. That’s because they were watching James flying up and down. That’s huge.”
The Sixers are a close-knit group and Harden is fitting in nicely. As part of team bonding, he initiated a card game during Wednesday’s flight.
