James Harden’s arrival at 76ers training camp came with some concern and speculation of just how bad or uncomfortable it might be, but he apparently decided to take a very different approach. Harden, who’s requested a trade out of Philadelphia, was apparently “cooking” during practice while also acting as a leader.
Patrick Beverley discussed how impressive Harden was, including the approach he took as a teammate on the Pat Bev Pod during a conversation with former owner Michael Rubin.
“He was playing with us in practice and boy he was cooking ... I’m talking about the pot was out, and he was stirring that b---- up,” Beverley said.
