The Philadelphia 76ers made the bold decision to trade for James Harden this season. The team essentially decided to trade Ben Simmons for The Beard, in the hopes that it would propel them to a championship.
The pairing of Harden and Joel Embiid had its ups and downs. While he performed well in the regular season, his reputation as an inconsistent Playoff player came back to haunt him.
With Embiid going down with an injury, Harden was expected to lead the team in the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals. Unfortunately, he would fail to show up, as the 76ers fell to the Miami Heat.
Despite his inability to lead the 76ers through the Playoffs, Harden is still very much appreciated in Philadelphia. As such, reports have surfaced suggesting the team is planning to bring him back.
NBA Twitter has mixed reactions as the 76ers reportedly plan to bring back James Harden on a short-term deal

This news, however, has led to some mixed reactions from fans all around the world. As such, many of them have taken to Twitter to express their joy or concern!
It looks like this could be a make-it or break-it season for James Harden. Hopefully, he once again gets players around the league to ‘Fear the Beard’!
