Recently, Rockets star Durant talked about the Thunder management’s trade of Harden when participating in a basketball show. Durant also bluntly stated that this incident made him very angry, and it can be seen that he is still upset now.
At that time, the Thunder had Durant, Westbrook, Harden and Ibaka. The four young players showed terrifying strength. Almost everyone believes that they will win more than one championship trophy in the future. It is a pity that the Thunder management actually traded Harden after losing in the finals. The reason was to save millions of dollars. No one expected that after leaving the Thunder, Harden would directly grow into a superstar who could stand alone and win the regular season MVP trophy.
Durant said that what makes him most angry is that many players are hypocritically congratulating Harden for achieving better results in Houston, especially James and Wade who also tweeted to congratulate Harden. But the real situation is that many players are very happy that Harden left the Thunder, because the Thunder was too strong at the time and was once close to the championship Heat. Such a team that could win the championship was abruptly dismantled by the management. Now only Durant joins the Warriors to win two championships.
Harden has expressed on more than one occasion that he is very angry with the management's operations, because he has denied their efforts in the past few years and still broke them up even though he knew they could win the championship in the future. The Thunder management has been criticized by fans for this matter, and they did not stop until they won the championship last season. Precisely because they had suffered losses before, the Thunder immediately offered big contracts to three young players and would never do this kind of thing like splitting up the team to save money again.
Unfortunately, Durant and Harden joined forces again in the Nets, but unfortunately they also failed to win the championship. If Harden had not left the Thunder back then, maybe everything would have changed.
