In a quiet moment after a celebration at the Los Angeles middle school he attended, James Harden didn’t shy away from a question about whether he thought his team, the Houston Rockets, had a chance at signing LeBron James next month.
“Nahh,” Harden said. “Him and Chris are really tight. As a friend, him and Chris are really good friends. I don’t think they talk about him coming to Houston. I think they talk about basketball and if LeBron wants to say, ‘Hey, I’m thinking about coming your way,’ then that’s a discussion we can have. I don’t think they talk about it.
