    But Harden has done it multiple times in the NBA and Harden was never talked about as a Franchise player coming out.

    I really don't understand your point?

    All these moves towards the end of deadline; exciting TV.

    This pick was looking better and better by the day. Now it is by the second. Would love to see them add 6' 10 Nikola Jovic with it. Would love to have a multi skilled 3 with length on the squad. Add that to whichever big we get (if top 3) and we can finally put an end to Small Ball.

    He is better than Simmons right now,

    He will not shoot a jumper and is scared to dunk a ball because he thinks he might get fouled.

    Have you actually looked at his stat line, or are you just going by a few random clips?

    Simmons is a bum who chokes on the biggest stage and even if declining, Harden is a much better player.

    Don't fool yourself.

    Then you need glasses, there is nothing Simmons does as well as Harden except defense and it not even close.

    Who said that on the Nets?

    And he has not been much of a ball stopper since going to Nets, talk about a using an old narrative.

    Simmons is better than Harden? I almost choked on my bahn mi

    Simmons is much better than Harden defensively, but is he alone making BK an elite defensive team? Scoring and playmaking is not even close between the 2. He’s definitely not helping BK’s spacing issues.

    I feel u…if this was 30 y/o Harden with multiple years left on his deal that would be 1 thing, but Morey shouldn’t be conceding both Thybulle and Maxey for this version of Harden that will leave BK in the summer…Sixers will need those 2 surrounding Harden and Embiid

    Philly can take Simmons, Curry, and a pick, and be happy they’re even getting that instead of Harden leaving them with nothing

    Woj on ESPN: "Right now, there's no negotiation going on between Brooklyn and Philadelphia... the idea that they're going back and forth as surmised by some, I don't believe that to be accurate."

    that would be pretty funny if it was true

    Where does it say that?

    And since when is Shams no just a rumor peddler?

    I don't believe it either, Durant would have to sign off on this and I don't think he would be a big Simmons fan.

    It's from the Athletic; I don't have access to it but you can google Harden Nets playstyle and you can get the text from it

    Lol. Kyrie shenanigans really sent Harden packing. KD chose Kyrie over Harden and James said “nah I’m good.”

    Are we making fantasy Woj quotes now or did I miss this? I have ESPN on in the background and Woj hasn't been on.
