    Wait wasn't this sorta the sign and trade scenario I was hoping for?

    I mean not *exactly* what I said, since he can't be extended. BUT this has to be the best case scenario for the Sixers outside of that.
    No this is him opting into his last year instead of us signing him to a new contract. 

    Basically whatever team (or teams) Harden wants to go to can't afford (or doesn't want) to sign him long term and would prefer to take him on as an expiring contract. So yeah, this seems like best case scenario. 

    Also....I'd like for the NBA to give us some draft picks back as there clearly has been some tampering going on lol

    So if we can get him and Harris off the books that's huge.

    Sooooo, basically: is Maxey worth Dame? I really don't know about that. If I get more than 3 years out of Lillard (at his current level) then I think I can swallow that.

    Yeah I think he is. Looks like Dame only wants to go to Miami though?

    Yeah, apparently. Which is fine. I really hope if they're moving Harden then they make sure they move Harris, too.

    There's some Tobias deals that might be pretty good. DeRozan and Lavine both might be had. But this Harden situation needs to get resolved first and looks like it could drag out maybe. Sucks.

    The fact that Thybulle is getting such ridiculous money made his trade a win for the Sixers.

    I'd feel better about it if they didn't let McDaniels go. I think he got 9 mil for 2 years or something.

    It's really depressing what this version of the team has turned into, but I'll say this - 1) it's funny how much leverage Harden thinks he has 2) optimistic side of me says they take a massive step back this year, and that's ok, to reload in 2024-2025, which is the real make-or-break year imo when it comes to Jo. They either do all they can to give him an actual legit team by then or he's walking away. And to that I do not blame him.

    The really frustrating thing is if Harden had any sense he'd realize his best shot at getting the maximum amount of money in his next contract is to just shut up, put on a good face and put up another good season just like last year and get that money next Summer. That would be such a win win for all parties but, alas, he has no sense. 


    Have you ever seen someone so grossly overestimate their value like he has? It's uncanny.

    Exactly. Bodner has it right - it's probably in Harden's best interest to be on a team this season and not lose his Bird rights.

    This is the juice I'm looking for:

    https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/38335993/inside-feud-james-harden-philadelphia-76ers

    So Harden like we all know is super insecure and wants to be treated like a superstar when he very well isn't anymore, not a mention extremely delusional, and Doc Rivers is a dipshit. Kinda glad this is playing out like this so we don't even have to think about committing this kind of money right now, especially to this guy.

    Thought they looked pretty good. Better offensive performance by Jo and they likely would've had it. Definitely more movement on offense.

    I haven't seen that much but not having Harden - that's addition by subtraction right?

    I mean....it's a really small sample size obviously, but there's a lot more flow and movement to the offense that wasn't there a lot of the time last year. Maxey seems to be relishing the role of primary ball handler. The two man game between him and Embiid looks just as good or better than it did with Harden.

    So how'd we do here? Seems like a decent trade considering all the circumstances.

    I think pretty well, actually? Wish that one pick from OKC wasn't protected but you get flippable picks, depth, expiring contracts and much needed cap space for next year.

    Maxey taking that leap to, what looks like, superstar level probably forced his hand to do this now instead of waiting. He looks fantastic running the show. Now we finally have a couple superstars without the drama and a bunch of 3 and D guys.

    I'm back in. Clap your hands. lol

    It'll be so much fun until that ridiculous crappy ending. Philly sports is like the book Angels & Demons.
