    getting real tired of Philly fans...these mofos dumb as dirt

    if I see another idiot thinking the Rockets would ever give away Harden for Tobias Harris, I’m gonna lose it

    that’s even worse than the dudes on here who thought the Pelicans could give us AD for Clint Capela

    Mcgrady had the micro fracture surgery as soon as he was about to be traded for Vince Carter to the Nets. That not only stopped the trade but it ****ed up his career

    I was optimistic earlier that he would stay but wit these new reports I just think there is no way. He has made up his mind. We will need to move on....

    Yeah, if Harden gets traded this year, and the Rockets turn to crap, I definitely blame Tilman 100%. If Harden leaves, it is because he doesn't think this team has the organizational wherewithal to build a true contender, and I am starting to think he may be right.

    I was hesitant to pile on Tilman over the last 2 years, but if he manages to drive away the best player, coach, and GM the team has had in the last 20 years, all in one summer, he has to get the blame. He will have somehow completely obliterated a team that was on the cusp of the Finals in 2 years. That is pretty hard to do. Even Dolan took about 5 years to destroy the Knicks from their peak in 94.

    Then maybe he should've let Morey do his job instead of forcing his hand.

    Ben Simmons is better and more valuable by himself than all three of the players the Nets are reportedly willing to trade for Harden. Yes, Simmons can’t shoot, but he’s an elite playmaker and defender. He’s similar to having a 6’10 Draymond Green (better at paint scoring but weaker at shooting). No GM worth their salt would give him up for Caris LeVert, Jarrett Allen, and Spencer Dinwiddie.

    lols, I always knew Morey was full of ****.

    Morey thinks Harden is better than Michael Jordan but is unwilling to trade Ben Simmons for him.

    Morey will probably go on a podcast and say Ben Simmons is better than Lebron.

    If any GM trades for Tobias Harris’ contract, they deserve to be fired immediately. You can easily make the argument it’s the worst contract in the league.

    I do notice that DM has been liking Ben's IGs and pumping him up a lot in his own tweets and IG messages. You could argue he's doing this to boost his trade value, but to me it seems more sincere than that. I'm not sure DM is going to be willing to part with Ben so quickly after he got there, until he sees more first hand. After the season, maybe. But I just don't see the Sixers going that route immediately.
