There has been much speculation about Houston Rockets superstar, James Harden, potentially wanting to be traded. The possibility of the Brooklyn Nets making the move to pair with Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving is a genuine possibility this NBA offseason.

According to Houston Chronicle’s Brian T. Smith, Harden wants to move on from the Rockets and is trying to ‘force’ his way via trade to the Brooklyn Nets to team up with Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving.
