Why did he pick up his player option then? He could have gone to Houston for a max deal and no one could have stopped him.

I wonder if Houston actually was not willing to offer Harden a max contract. Not sure if it was an actual leak or just a rumor, but I'm pretty sure I heard something about Udoka discouraging the front office from giving Harden a deal. Harden opting in suggests the offers as a free agent we're not good.
