DeMarcus Cousins had been waiting for this moment for 15 months. It was 15 months ago that James Harden finally got his wish and got himself traded away from Houston after showing up to training camp late, being out of shape and appearing to not care much about his teammates. When Harden finally got dealt, Cousins, who had been a member of the Rockets for just a couple months, said Harden had disrespected him and everyone in the Rockets locker room.
On Monday night, when Harden’s 76ers and Cousins’ Nuggets played, the two met on the court for the first time since those comments.
