NBA: James Harden fined $100,000 for remarks about chairman Daryl Morey

"He's a liar." This sentence will cost Philadelphia 76ers fullback James Harden $ 100,000, according to information released by American journalist Adrian Wojnarowski on Tuesday. During a promotional tour in China "The Beard" had openly criticized Daryl Morey, president of basketball operations in Philadelphia, who was already his general manager on the Houston side last week, when the 2018 MVP played for the Rockets ( 2012-2021).

“Daryl Morey is a liar and I will never be part of any organization he is part of. Let me say it again: Daryl Morey is a liar and I will never be part of any organization he is part of,” Harden said.

At the origin of these criticisms, the situation once again tense between the one who was ten times All-Star NBA and his franchise. Harden openly asked to be transferred in the offseason, specifying that he wanted to join the Los Angeles Clippers in priority, him the native of LA. Except that several days ago, The Athletic announced that Daryl Morey had ended negotiations to trade the 33-year-old player. Which obviously greatly displeased the back drafted in 2009 by Oklahoma City (3rd position).

Last season, the 76ers led by Harden and Joel Embiid could not do better than a conference semi-final, eliminated by Boston in 7 games. The Pennsylvania franchise hasn't made it in the playoffs in recent seasons, which certainly played into the left-hander's decision, eager to win an NBA ring.
