He must be getting lap dance vouchers under the table. That's the only explanation I see.

It's more than a joke. I don't believe for a second Harden took less money to stay with Clippers. Harden is getting extra somewhere. Is it some sort of "endorsement deals" and other extra benefits the kind Uncle Dennis asked for. NBA's version of NIL. Who's going to question that?

FVV is 30 and still in the prime of his career. harden is about to turn 35 before the season starts and will be getting worse every year.

He turned down a 47m player option to take less money with the Sixers so they could improve their roster a couple seasons ago.

FVV get overpaid by a team that had too much cap room to use though, so that kinda makes his contract not really about his true value as a player.

Harden on the other hand isn't a guy that has given the best front office experiences for teams recently but also has few teams who he wants that want him. If he simply wanted as much money as possible and didn't care he could have found it somewhere.

True, but important to add that he didn’t get the contract he wanted so took a one year prove-it offer that was less than he could’ve gotten.
