As far as Steve Nash is concerned, both he and James Harden are on the same page. Speaking with reporters prior to Tuesday's tipoff against Los Angeles, Nash went as far as to say Harden has not verbalized any of the frustrations cited in the Bleacher Report story and even questioned the validity of the report.
Steve Nash responds to the rumors of James Harden's concerns with the Nets including with their rotations:

It's no surprise that the head coach is not giving any credence to the notion that his star player is unhappy with the crunch time rotations and open to a change of scenery with a part-time Kyrie Irving and injuries to Kevin Durant and Joe Harris starting to derail a potential championship season.
The reality is, as Harden outlined, he's frustrated about a culmination of factors including: injuries, COVID-19 and inconsistencies plaguing the team.
Harden did not exactly include coaching in his list of gripes, but time will tell if his relationship deteriorates with Nash. Winning cures all and assuming three-fifths of the team's starting lineup is back intact by March, Harden may be singing a much different tune come playoff time.The reports on James Harden being unhappy in Brooklyn?
