Sources: After turning down an extension offer to become the first $50M a year player in league history, James Harden’s message to Houston is clear: Get me to Brooklyn. Rockets and Nets have been in contact, but there’s been no meaningful dialogue.

After a disappointing season that saw them lose in the first round of the playoffs, the Philadelphia 76ers have been rumored to be interested in making a major move to improve.

The biggest move that’s been rumored is a deal for Houston Rockets superstar James Harden, yet it looks like Philly is unwilling to part with All-Star Ben Simmons.

“As far as the Sixers are concerned, unless they’re putting in Ben Simmons, which I’m told they’re not inclined to do right now, I don’t see a deal structure that makes sense for Philly outside of a guy like Ben Simmons. So the Sixers and the Nets are gonna have to see if they can cobble a deal together,” said Shams Charania.

True but we don't even know if we'll ever see the old KD again

Why do teams want Harden? Did he win a ring yet, did I miss something?

They don't want him. They want a steal of a deal. But his money is difficult to get equal value in return for Hou. He's pretty much unmovable
