I really think James Harden will do anything, to get a shot at the finals, and the cutting of salary is 1 proof of it but does he still play the same or he is completely different now, but judging from what he did, I think he is surely feeling it now, so he needs to do everything to his power for him to get to close to the rings, apparently I really think his age has gotten him good,
He's done almost everything but I think that's not all that he can do. It's true that he's really taking a shot for the finals and that's why anything that he can sacrifice, he'll do it.
He wants to do it in his own way by pushing himself to the top, he's getting older and that's one of the achievements that he wants to have. Unlike some other players, they've got a reliable teammates and that's what he's lacking of.
He surely can not get it all, he may have the perseverance, and the mindset but those reliable teammates that he is longing to have he can not get those, that is why he decided to cut his salary, but does he? well ultimately the Philadelphia 76ers are having a hard time getting good teammates, but for me, the Philadelphia 76ers are still good and right now this season James Harden will be playing with Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey, Tobias Harris, and P.J. Tucker I think that is a good sign in getting into the finals,
Preseason 2nd match
Milwaukee Bucks VS Memphis Grizzlies SCORE 102 - 107
Even though it was a close match both star players from both teams didn't play Giannis Antetokounmpo, for the Bucks and Jo Morant for the Grizzlies, although Brook Lopez and Jrue Holiday played for the Bucks they really don't to much but still, I think this has pushed them to win the preseason game, but as I have said preseason games isn't really that important it doesn't matter what has happen to the game, but I love small details even if its just the preseason,
