Sixers gotta throw the whole organization in the dumpster
Ending up with harden is like losing a game of musical chairs at this point
The only player that will help Embild/ sixers is vanfleet. Re join him and nurse. Maxey is ready to fill hardens void sixers will be okay without the invisible 🫥 man . In the playoffs
If I’m the 6ers I go to Portland rappin like “the beard, mad max, luol diang, and picks for game time dame time what you got bubba”
Harden is what he is at this point. You don’t bring him on as a second option, harden is a 3rd at best. The clippers would be a bad fit because Kawhi and Paul are unreliable physically, especially Kawhi, James Will consistently end up as a second option which you don’t need. Would You want James as the second option in a critical game 5 of the WCF?
I'm glad teams are wising up and not looking at harden or Irving. They are both head cases who can't play defense
I think Philly needs to Elevate Maxey, to The #2 Guy on the team, and Trade Harden for 2-3 Good, Role Players, that can Defend, Shoot 3’s and Handle The Ball.
9:22 still making it about those three teams only. They will never learn.
Harden gave up on his team in a game 7, got Rivers fired and then he wants out 😂 he’s never gonna win a ring 😂😂😂
Still Green to the Kings=)
Slowly hardening into bricks.
The Sixers was never when a title with him . The Sixers need a add third player to add to Maxey and Embiid .They be fine .
Ciltecs just throw their main Def.guy.!Ciltecs not a title contender anymore. Wish White will move out their.,go back to Spurs White.
Teams ship players without a moments notice, no reason. So I like what Harden doing! Embiid is not going to win a NBA championship.
Maybe Embiid is the problem
If Ben Simmons didn't work in Philly, neither did Jimmy Butler
If we trade Harden, I want Dame Time. Maybe even trade for Jerami Grant too (and add Tobi). Idk how realistic that is.
The San Diego Clippers are a joke!
Ppl act like smart was a larry bird in his prime and trading him gonna destroy the Celtics they will be ok
Harden was carrying in the playoffs for his age and everyone acts like he’s trash. Embid didn’t show up and just flopped and was hurt.
If the Sixers trade Maxey it'll be one of the dumbest trades of all-time!
Just let Embiid and Maxey cook with a competitive bench and a solid bunch of role players.
I think Vanfleet and Kyrie would be good alternatives to Harden
Even players like Austin reeves would still be a good replacement for James harden. Harden is done.
Trading Maxey would be Catastrophic
Porzingis made it 100 times worse. He will ride the bench until the end of the season. I bet he will get injured even before the season start.
is this the man who said bulls will not even reach the playin on the bulls 1st year with demar? then Bulls became #1 seed, just before lonzo went down but still finished inside the playoffs. So I'm not buying anything he's saying.
Why ppl talk about the bucks like they even on the Celtics level? The Celtics have annihilated the bucks the last 4 matchups. If I’m the Celtics the 76ers have given me a tougher matchup than the bucks have
Sounds crazy but Westbrook to the sixers could be good. He's humbled at this point of his career but still plays hard. Him n Tyrese on the break could be scary. n gell DEFINITELY will b on the boards
Celtics fans keep on pretending that "heart thing" is a big deal, bro its almost like you won a number 1 pick, so stop your drama.
Why is Embiid staying n philly??? cuz he comes up short n the 2nd round every single mf year. never avg n the playoffs what he avg n the regular season. FACTS
Harden getting doc fired and now leaving, should have Joel wanting out
Just putting this in the universe, but what about a sign and trade with FVV to the Sixers for Harden. FVV knows how to run in Nurses system and the Raptors get a point guard on an expiring deal yet stay competitive this year.
I'm more concerned about why Tim Bontemps dyed his hair.
They will get very little value with Harden on an expiring deal. The off season of low balling the players has begun! GMs trying to lock in assets with horrible contracts days are numbered 😮
