First Brother: Harden’s denouncing Morey is a deliberate choice. He knows Morey has a bad reputation in China.
Live broadcast on August 16, igodala visited arenas’s podcasting program, during which he talked about Harden’s shelling of Morey during his trip to China. He Said Harden’s move was a deliberate choice.
“When you negotiate the contract, you should know your own value, what chips you have, and what weaknesses you can take advantage. What Harden can take advantage of is Morey’s bad reputation in China, where he can say what Morey wants.
“Harden played this chess very well. First of all, it is difficult for you to punish Harden, because he did nothing wrong. He just went to China to sell sneakers. Now people always say that players have too much power, which is precisely because we are getting smarter and smarter and know how to speak and how to use our chips.
“When we make mistakes, they will take advantage of this when negotiating, but we have never taken advantage of their mistakes. I think Harden seized this excellent opportunity this time.” Igodala said.
