Harden traded for a player who didn't play at all this yaer

Harden getting traded twice in two seasons

Maybe the most predictable blockbuster trade ever. Harden basically quit on the Nets. It had to happen.

I don't think you're the only one, especially since the 76ers had been demanding essentially 4 blue chip prospects/picks for Simmons alone.

 

[Breakers]

Brian Windhorst's entire credibility was on the line if this trade didnt happen

my god, the quotes he was throwing out there.

I was thinking the same.

This seems like a massive return for this version of Harden?

f*** Ben Simmons

Nets did good here.

An expiring for Seth who's a solid player on his own right, a still young Simmons (who for as much as he tightly got clowned on is still a solid player) and picks.

Shoutout to Kyrie sinking yet another teams title hopes.

wonder if Simmons' mental health will be cured in time for the weekend

Yes and no? Simmons should fit in well there, but the firsts probably won't be that super valuable given where the Sixers would be picking. Drummond isnt really that big a deal, and even though Curry hurts, Harden more than makes up for it.

But Embiid and Harden is a combo that can win a title right now. Being able to keep Thybull out of the deal is a win as well.

At the end of the day, the Sixers took a guy who sulked half a season after being criticized for not wanting to ever shoot the ball to the point of passing up a wide open layup in the playoffs and got James Harden in return. That's a win any way you cut it.

 

[SimpleJack]

Wow the Nets got fleeced. No Maxey or Thybulle.

KD gotta be furious.

 

[Terry Yake]

i feel like this makes brooklyn a better team. still can't see them getting past the bucks, but they're better with simmons+curry than with harden

Couldn’t make it work with Dwight.

Couldn’t make it work with CP3.

Couldn’t make it work with Russ

Couldn’t make it work with KD and Kyrie.

Harden is a bum. How are the clubs in Philly?
