The Sixers have been trying to mend their relationship with Harden during the offseason because they believe they can win a championship with him on the roster.

Harden has been emphatic in wanting a trade, so the Sixers are setting up an uncomfortable situation to start camp. Ultimately, Philadelphia wouldn’t make a trade that they believed would compromise their title hopes.

During a promotional tour in China on Monday morning, Harden made sure to call Sixers GM Daryl Morey a liar in front of reporters and said that he would never play for an organization that employs Morey.

“Daryl Morey is a liar and I will never be a part of an organization that he’s a part of. Let me say that again. Daryl Morey is a liar and I will never be a part of an organization that he’s a part of.”
