James Harden did everything he could to force his way out of the Houston Rockets and it’s fair to say he’s a happy man right now after being traded to the Brooklyn Nets in a blockbuster 4-team trade with the Indiana Pacers and Cleveland Cavaliers.
Harden believed his time with the Rockets was over and he used every trick on the book to express his desire to leave, even calling out his teammates and saying the team wasn’t good enough to compete in the NBA.
One of the biggest things about Harden was his weight and how fat he looked when he returned to the Rockers after spending a couple of days partying, breaking the league’s COVID-19 protocols. Well, Harden surprised everybody when he showed his body during his debut with the Nets and nobody can really tell what happened there.
James Harden completely transformed his body from the Rockets to the Nets
He made his debut on Saturday, three days after his trade from the Rockets. Harden didn’t look that skinny with the Nets but he managed to look a lot slimmer during his first game at the Barclays Center. Of course, fans couldn’t believe what they saw and plenty of them brought their best memes to describe the Beard’s incredible transformation.
That really worked as Harden looked like his best version, dropping 32 points, grabbing 11 rebounds, and dishing 14 assists in a win over the Orlando Magic. Everybody was in awe of him and Kevin Durant and this man is ready to continue the good pace.
The Nets are still waiting for the return of Kyrie Irving but it seems like, with Harden on the team, they don’t have many teams to be worried about. Skinny Harden isn’t here yet but this version of the Beard is also scary.
