Tracy McGrady thinks there is more behind Harden’s trade request

James Harden announced after the playoffs that he wants a transfer to other team , despite the bright prospects the Philadelphia 76ers are offering him.

Along with new coach, Joel Embiid and so on, the 76ers are among the favorites for NBA title next season according to pundits.

That has left many people bewildered as to why would such a high profile name like Harden would want to pursuit career elsewhere.

Among those is the former NBA player Tracy McGrady, who stated that there should be a deeper reason behind the decision.

"It's got to be something deeper than any of us know about because to me it's the perfect fit."

Speaking on Fox’s Herd McGrady said:

“It’s got to be something deeper than any of us know about because to me it’s the perfect fit,”

“There’s an MVP that you are playing with. They have a young talent in Tyrese Maxey who is going to be extremely good this year. I just think that the talent that you have around you is best for you is structured to win a championship or at least compete for one.”
