how many years ago was this?

October 2012...

OKC wanted to give Harden a 4 year $55 million extension... which was about $5 million less than the max of $60 million at the time.

Harden wanted the extra few million. OKC then immediately traded him to HOU where he got his max and was also designated the franchise player so he ended up signing for the extra year (5 years $80 million max)

plus harden wanted to be the man in a big city.

he wanted his own brand...he wouldn't have got that chance as the 6man in ofc.

Now he has commercials, PE shoes, H town thots :troll:, his own brand! and plus he took his team further than what kd or russ could do solo
