Keith Pompey says the 76ers have to do everything in their power to acquire Jrue Holiday in a trade from the Portland Trail Blazers. Holiday would be a suitable replacement for disgruntled point guard James Harden. Plus, this would be a homecoming for Holiday, who was drafted by the Sixers in 2009. Pompey also says the Sixers need to make a move before Monday’s Media Day before the Harden situation becomes a major distraction. Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…

I think hed be a great fit at pg for us. He can be a defender plus facilitate, and hes still gonna get his 15-20 a game. We would have holiday n pat bev defending the perimeter, and embiid, bball, an harris defending down low? Then let harris come off the books and find a star wing next off season.
I hope SO
He would be a Great Fit
I think Jrue & Harden will be prefect together. But Jrue going to Miami
Any trade involving Maxey is a panic move. I'm out on moving young players for players 33 and 34. This team has to begin to replenish their young talent and if Embiid plays in the playoffs like he does in the regular season, this team has a chance to beat anybody. The problem is Embiid shrinks, his scoring decreases. Stop with the panic moves. James Harden was a panic move and we see how that worked out.
U can't bring Jrue until around the trade deadline. There are rules on trading a player who was just traded. Now Portland can release him and we can pick him up.. but there is no getting him this weekend lol
It will cost a pick but at least there won’t be an albatross max contract in the future that Harden represented. Morey took a gamble at the time when he traded for James. The reality is Jrue is a more coveted player right now than James will ever be. It will be a shame if Morey doesn’t make this move quick and drags a circus into the season.
Come in full circle.. HARDEN don't what's to be here, Trade MAXEY for J… STARTING G, JRUE and who?
Zach Levine !
I normally can't stand Pompey, but I agree with this take 1000%.
Outside of holiday, I still think Colin Sexton would be a very good point guard next to holiday
I’d like to see morey trade for hield and holiday…..lol get rid of pj, furkan and harden. That will give them a real shot. Or maybe get holiday this season and Zach Lavine next season too alongside embiid and maxey
And in terms of holidays defending, he couldn’t defend jimmy butler at all in the playoffs and he’s known as another playoff choker and his numbers drop in the post season. I don’t know if I want to spend cap on him for two years, that being said he could retire next year or we can trade him if it doesn’t work out.
I'm not as concerned of the Harden distraction as Keith. When Simmons did this it literally had no effect on the team's performance. It actually brought the team together more. I can see the same thing happening because you also have guys in contract years that will be trying to ball out. Maxey and Tobi will most likely the best seasons of their careers. Oubre on a vet min is gonna want to get a nice contract
I agree. Kelly Oubre does not get along with James Harden…. or any B. A. N.s for that matter.
You Sixers fans have always been delusional. Been trusting the process for almost 10 years. Celtics will continue to own y'all cause Jrue is going to Boston.
Keith u always talking trading maxey, insane. Jrue hit its max, now consider his salary 2024
Jrue Holiday and Jeremi Grant to Sixers Harden and Tucker to Clippers or Heat and Blazers get Young assets from Clippers/Heat Let's Go!!!!!
I agree we need him trade Jrue Holiday and Jermey Grant for Harden and Tobias
THEY NEED TO FIRE THIS GUY, HIRE SOMEBODY YOUNGER.. HE ALWAYS DE OTHER TEAMS. HE NEVER EVEN PLAYED BASKETBALL ON A SERIOUS LEVEL, OR EVEN FOR FUN… GET UA OLD BURPING ASS OUTTA HERE
Only if they could ship Harden out…
Good points Keith. However, will the Sixers make that trade for Jrue Holiday. Will they pull the trigger for his player.
76ers not winning shit
Jrue Holiday to Philly
We got pat bev why we need jrue we need a facilitator
We’ll still be mediocre 🤷🏽♂️
The Sixers is done! I got Boston as the clear #1 favorite. The bucks are #2
Giving up Maxey and getting Jrue that will not make them better….no maxey trades
Harden is a 40 year old kid.
