James Harden Reportedly Had This Concern About Playing With Kyrie Irving

James Harden was not happy with Kyrie Irving.

There has been a lot of speculation as to why James Harden wanted to leave the Nets. Rumor has it James Harden had enough of playing with Kyrie Irving.

According to Ian Begley of SNY, Kyrie Irving’s vaccination status was at the top of his mind. Harden was specifically worried about having to play the Toronto Raptors in the postseason, since that would guarantee Kyrie’s absence.

“According to a source, the prospect of playing the Raptors in the postseason was one of the reasons James Harden was concerned about Irving’s vaccine status earlier in the season. Harden, as you know, forced a trade from Brooklyn to the Philadelphia 76ers prior to the deadline.”

It feels more like James wanted out, and was using every excuse under the sun to get out of Brooklyn.

Harden made a business decision that has paid off so far. His tenure on the Nets just didn’t work out, timing is everything in life.

Hopefully we can see the Nets and Sixers match up in the playoffs, that would be must watch TV.
