ESPN insider Bobby Marks recently spoke about what the NBA can expect from the superstar guard this coming season. Harden made a rather heroic gesture in the offseason when he took a paycut. By giving the 76ers front office enough cap room to facilitate the acquisition of solid role players, Harden has given Philadelphia a chance at winning the title. Given that the superstar guard already has great chemistry with star big man Joel Embiid, Philadelphia looks like a solid team. On ESPN, Bobby Marks said he felt Harden will have a spectacular season and be in contention for the MVP award. "I think we're going to be talking about James Harden in the top three when we're talking about MVP conversations this year. I'm not saying he's winning it." Marks was also asked what that would imply for Philadelphia this upcoming season. He said: "They're going to the Conference Finals. I have them and Boston in the Conference Finals. I think this is a redemption year, I think the contract year for Harden because of that player-option, giving back all that money here." He added: " I think you're going to run into a situation where, when you add PJ Tucker and Danuel House and - all of it is going to be dependent on Joel Embiid's health - but I think we're going to see the Houston version of James Harden here in Philadelphia."
