The Sixers are making an aggressive push to acquire Jrue Holiday, per @ShamsCharania on @PatMcAfeeShow “Philadelphia has interest in him, and Philadelphia is going to be going hard at him. So, James Harden would have to be a part of a transaction like that.”

They’d definitely be losing some offensive juice going from Harden to Jrue. But they’d have more options on defense at least.
If Jrue goes to an Eastern conference contender, this is honestly our best bet. Him going to the Sixers doesn’t really scare me as much as Miami lol
“James Harden would have to be a part of a transaction like that.” That’s the rub. In this scenario most of Portland’s return for Jrue would be what a 3rd team is willing to give up for Harden, and how much is that really? Harden is a distressed asset who’s unhappy on his 3rd straight team.
Ugh I hope Jrue goes to a fun team like us or Dallas or the kings, not the sixers
I’m fine with this lol Jrue won’t save the sixers
Fun fact, Harden makes less than Jrue, so salary matching that works for Jrue…also works for Harden lol
If Harden’s value is low and we strike out on Jrue. Would be a funny carousel if Harden ended up on the C’s
I doubt they can get him if they don’t give up Maxey but it would be a problem if they do
That would be annoying on defense for sure. Hope it doesn’t happen
James Harden wouldn’t show up to play in Portland so they’d have to trade him too lol
I’m not too scared of a Sixers team headlined by Embiid, Holiday, and Maxey
Why would anyone want harden tbh… who gives a 💩 about his skill. It’s James Harden.
