There's one thing that seems to be guaranteed when it comes to James Harden, and that's very explosive endings to his tenures - that history repeated itself in Philadelphia, too.

According to a report from Sam Amick of The Athletic, James Harden is incredibly unhappy with the 76ers at how they handled his free agency. Amick joined Vincent Goodwill of Yahoo Sports to discuss Harden's trade request and more. Here is the exact quote from the podcast:

"There were two guys who were attached at the hip so to speak for so many years...but now, Vinny, and you know this, James is, they're not attached at the hip anymore," Amick said. "James is very unhappy, he's very displeased with the way this whole thing was handled. I think he for sure thought that last summer when he gave $15 million back to help them get PJ Tucker and Danuel Haus that that was going to come back his way this summer. As they got closer to free agency, he was getting radio silence."

If there's one thing that's clear right now, it's that James Harden wants to go to the LA Clippers. Typically, James Harden has gotten everything he's ever wanted when it comes to trades. One would expect the same thing to happen in this situation, especially because of his previous relationship with Daryl Morey. A big looming question though is, what happens when James gets ultimately unhappy with the Clippers, too? If history has shown anything, it's that Harden will want a way out if he doesn't win.
