James Harden: “A new beginning and a new setting”

Like Ben Simmons, James Harden will perhaps experience a reunion evening tonight since he should find the Barclays Center and his former teammates, even if his presence for the meeting is ultimately uncertain. We can not say that his passage was really a success, and perhaps some fans will not fail to whistle him since he had forced his leaders to leave.

But for him, as for Ben Simmons, the most important thing is to be in good health, and to give it your all.

« The set is basically a fresh start and a new setting Appreciates James Harden, who has only played 21 games with the Sixers. »It’s a full boot camp, and there are times and periods when you have dead legs or stiff legs. But these are the times when you just have to push through. »

Not comfortable during the last playoffs both because he was physically impaired but also because he could not find his place in the collective, James Harden will take advantage of this preseason to find the right balance.

« This time it’s a little different because during the summer I was able to prepare for it, mentally and physically. And it’s a new opportunity with all the new ones. Frankly, it’s just about communication between Doc, Joel and me in order to know when I should be aggressive or when it should be Joel.«
