James Harden’s leadership is crucial for Nets ... so is his health

Since his first practice with the Nets last January, James Harden has been team leader. It’s a job he wants and relishes. He’ll question everyone from player to coach to GM on everything ... and be accountable when things go wrong.

He described that leadership style talking to the media Friday at the Nets training camp in San Diego.

“I’m not that loud, but … I’m more loud than anybody on this team, like Paul [Millsap], LaMarcus [Aldridge], Patty [Mills], [Kevin Durant], you’ve got a lot of guys who are just to themselves,” Harden told the media Friday.
