James Harden wants to leave the Philadelphia 76ers.
That’s the third team he wants to leave in the past four years, so one can only wonder what’s the real issue here.
Harden went from being one of the most respected players in the league to a guy some teams don’t seem to want anything with, and that’s despite his production.
That’s why Skip Bayless claims that Harden has ruined the NBA for him.
In the latest edition of “Undisputed,” Bayless called him out for quitting his way out of the Houston Rockets, showing up 30 pounds overweight to force a trade.
James Harden still seeking trade from 76ers:

Then, although he did admit he didn’t blame him for wanting to get away from the Brooklyn Nets, he said he also quit on them, and now he’s looking to quit on the Sixers as well.
Bayless predicted that Harden won’t care if he’s fined for his behavior with the Sixers because he’s made a lot of money, adding that if he’s forced to show up, he’ll barely show up.
He called him one of the most talented players of all time and lauded him during his MVP years, but stated that he looks 44 right now, not 34.
Even despite all his issues, he still averaged 21 points and 11 assists last season and was one of the main reasons why Joel Embiid was able to win MVP.
But as great and talented as he is, Bayless stated that it’s hard to love what he’s become at this point in his career.
