It’s no surprise that the Sixers’ medical staff has talked to Harden extensively about his injury history. That includes Simon Rice, the vice president of Athlete Care and author of a handful of books on hamstring injuries. “Whatever they got for me, coming up with a plan and then executing that plan,” Harden said. “At the same time, trying to figure out on the court how to make it work and how to figure out each individual and how can I put my imprint on every single game. All of that goes into one basket – obviously making sure your body is right and then going out there and being the best James Harden I can be.”
