“I’ve talked to James, he wants to be here. He wants to be here long-term as well. So I don’t think anythings changed other than noise from the outside. James wants to be here, we’re building with James and we think we have the best chance to win with James.”

Steve Nash said nothing has changed with James Harden and his desire to be in Brooklyn except “noise from the outside world.”
That outside noise is coming from Philadelphia, where the 76ers have made their attempts to poach Harden from the Nets very clear. – 2:06 PM

James Harden is out today. If the Nets fall to the Nuggets, they will:
‣ Be the 7th seed in the East.
‣ Tied with Denver for picks 18-19 of the Draft.
‣ Just percentage points ahead of Boston (8th seed, 17th pick) if the Celtics beat the Magic today. – 12:27 PM

Alex Schiffer: Asked if the Nets are trading James Harden, Steve Nash says: “No.” -via Twitter @Alex__Schiffer / February 6, 2022
After reports that suggested the Nets had relented and agreed to entertain offers for Harden from Philadelphia, Adrian Wojnarowski told ESPN’s NBA Countdown that James Harden has told Kevin Durant and Nets management that he wants to “be there,” meaning Brooklyn and “there’s a real good chance that’s the case” after the deadline. -via NetsDaily / February 6, 2022
Woj also hinted that Durant wants more of a commitment going forward and apparently not just from Harden. He told Mike Greenberg “Here’s where Durant is on James Harden. I’m told that he believed they could win multiple titles with him, Kyrie Irving and James Harden. That’s why Kevin Durant pushed so hard to get Brooklyn to make that deal with Houston last year and he still believes that. -via NetsDaily / February 6, 2022
