James Harden is set to start his first playoff series with the 76ers. When asked if he feels any pressure, the superstar said he feels good.
NBA legend Charles Barkley, who spent eight years in Philadelphia as a player, was not appreciative of Harden’s response knowing what the expectations of the fans are.
“James Harden, you said don’t feel no pressure? Man, you better think again. Them people in Philadelphia ain’t gonna be having you going out there and playing bad,” Barkley said, per Kyle Neubeck.
The Sixers (4th seed) will face the Raptors (5th seed) in the first round of the playoffs.
