"The sides are absolutely talking, absolutely negotiating," said Brian Windhorst on Get Up. "[Tuesday], the 76ers were out looking for other moves. Talking to other teams about other moves. Moving players. Opening roster spots. Leading those teams to believe they were getting ready to make the other deal.
"They have swapped offers. Really right now, it's about haggling the ancillary parts.
"Does this mean it will absolutely get done by tomorrow? I can't say that. I'm not sitting in the room. It's complicated. They are in the deal zone right now. I am leaning towards this probably happening. I don't want to guarantee it or anything, but I think we're heading in that direction."
Harden is pushing for this trade, according to Windhorst.
"I can't tell you how much James Harden wants this," said Windhorst.
Windhorst suggests the way Harden played at the Sacramento Kings was a signal he wants out. Harden has subsequently not played at all for the Nets.
"He is screaming in every way he possibly can 'I don't want to be here, get me out of here.'"
Windhorst adds that there could be more consequences for the Nets if they don't trade Harden at the deadline.
"That's what has spurred this into being: James Harden's basic feeling 'I don't want to be here anymore.'"
Fast forward 2 years. Harden unhappy with sixers and wants out. Has quit on the team and no longer trying.
Self awareness would suggest at some point, “it’s me not you.”
Carter is smiling somewhere knowing that this move by a star is now called the Harden and no longer the Carter.
