Harden lol did u all see that interview?

[Dro]

Wut. If u wanted to stay in okc so bad, why didn't u take the 50 mil instead of the 80 mil?:lol

Ehh, 30 million dollars.

And he was quite young at this point.

But it was odd, he even admitted to "crying" after finding out that he got traded.

That's what I'm saying. I feel you, I would probably take 80 mil also. But why is he crying about it? He was almost crying in the interview.:confusedshrug:

Durant and Westbrook are going to re unite in Houston anyway so it doesnt matter

There's no way he was taking 4 years 50 million. Don't forget this was Harden's first big contract opportunity. You HAVE TO cash in on that first contract, because you never know what's gonna happen.

And he was coming off a Finals experience with two other young, great players. At that point he's probably thinking about winning multiple titles with those guys... then the front office low-balls him and trades him. That's worth a tear or two.

He did seem noticeably still upset about it :oldlol:

Not only that, he was arguably the 2nd best player in the first 3 rounds.
