The NBA Trade Deadline for the 2021-22 season is today, at 3 PM ET. The drama and tension in the air is building up, and everyone expects some major news in the next few hours. The main location where everyone has their eyes fixed is Brooklyn. A few weeks ago, there were some rumors that James Harden wants to play with Joel Embiid in Philly. Since then, the Nets have been on a 9-game losing streak.
From what was expected to be an offseason move, the same has been shifted to a potential trade deadline move. Not too long ago, Adrian Wojnarowski reported that James Harden is afraid to ask for a trade.
“I’m told that James Harden wants a trade to the 76ers. He wants it to happen today prior to the trade deadline. But he has resisted formally requesting that trade with the Nets organization.”

In midst of all that, Kevin Durant, who earlier conveyed his wish for Harden to stay, might have changed his mind. He liked a post sharing the Woj news, and that has led to quite some speculations.

As we have seen with many other incidents, KD is an “are you with me or against me” if the answer is the latter, he’s immediately able to flitch the switch. https://t.co/DIBPJamtlb

Reports indicated that James Harden did not travel with the team to Washington to face the Wizards. Well, we’ll know for sure what the final situation would be within the next 3 hours.
However, if the Nets don’t end up trading Harden, things may get a little awkward in the locker room.
