The Philadelphia 76ers are set to have James Harden make his debut on Wednesday night against the New York Knicks after he played in two games on the road. The environment inside Wells Fargo Center on Wednesday should be a raucous one considering how passionate the fan base is.
If there is one person who understands how wild it can be in Philadelphia, it is legendary guard Allen Iverson. The Answer had a ton of big games in the City of Brotherly Love and he fed off the passion from the fan base and the energy that they gave him every night.
In anticipation of Harden’s home debut, Iverson tweeted a message to the star guard that he will love it in Philadelphia.
The fans in Philadelphia are the best in the world, you’ll see tonight… Welcome Home killa!!! @JHarden13

“Man, after seeing what The Garden was, I obviously expect it to be a crazy environment at Wells Fargo,” said Georges Niang. “I’m excited for that. I’m excited that James gets to experience that being on the court.”
The Sixers have won the first two games of the Harden era and they will be looking to continue their winning ways when they host the Knicks at 7:30 p.m. EST.
