Harden’s arrival in Los Angeles, via a multi-player trade with the 76ers and OKC Thunder , was prompted by his desire for this specific destination.
He envisions no issues when it comes to fitting in with the likes of Kawhi Leonard, Paul George, and Russell Westbrook.
Harden confidently stated at his introductory press conference in Los Angeles, “I’m not a system player. I am the system.”

Harden’s statements weren’t delivered with arrogance but rather a matter-of-fact demeanor.
He elaborated, saying, “It’s not solely about my ability to score 30 or 40 points; it’s more than that, and that’s what I meant by that.”
For the record, Harden’s teammates share this confidence in what he will bring to the team and the potential they see in their collective journey.
