I wasn’t sure when I listened earlier whether it was a slip but someone in Phili picked up on it and posted on SM.

No wonder Fred and Nick Nurse got along so well
They spoiled their offseason plans weeks in advance
That and he never held Fred accountable during his concert numbers stretch
Lol so if Harden walks Fred is joining his buddy in Philly
FWIW, Philly can have cap space even if Harden walks if they trade Tobias.
I saw that was wondering when this would get posted.
Have fun in Philly, not a chance they reach the same success. Kinda weird to go to one of our biggest rivals but go ahead.
I’d recommend people watch Fred’s “Bet On Yourself” documentary. It’s not only a really touching story, but it’s also pretty brutally honest about just how close he was leaving the last time he was in free agency. I don’t think it’s any foregone conclusion he wants to stay here.
>I think he’ll (Nick Nurse) have some success, hopefully not too much…if I’m not there, if im still in Toronto”
Full quote for those wondering.
Nobody actually listens to the link or reads articles do they? This title is so misleading.
Bet(ray) on yourself.
He wasn’t asked about his free agency at all and just kept rambling on with it. Not trying to look too much into it but Fred is very intentional and prepared when he does any media.
