Famous 76ers Fan Reacts to James Harden's Trade Request

While trade talks may have ended between the Philadelphia 76ers and the LA Clippers, James Harden's desire for a trade seems to remain. During a recent interview with Isabella DiAmore of The Philadelphia Inquirer, comedian, actor, and major 76ers fan Kevin Hart weighed in on Harden's trade request.

"Unfortunately, it’s the business of basketball," Hart said. "None of us know what’s happening behind the scenes. We can only hope that whatever it is gets ironed out and that James Harden is still a Sixer at the start of the season. I loved seeing Harden and Joel [Embiid] together. I love the combination. I love the fact that once again, we’re in the conversation of the big game. Sometimes there’s politics and business that present itself that can ruffle feathers or make things a little difficult, but ultimately, it always figures itself out. James is a friend and a true pro, and I’m hopeful that in this side of his career and in his place, he’ll find a reason to stay here."

While some 76ers fans may be upset with Harden, and would prefer a trade gets finished, it seems others are hoping things can work out. A return to the 76ers feels unlikely for Harden, given his public comments about Daryl Morey, but perhaps that becomes his only option if the Clippers are indeed no longer trying to acquire him.
