    ----------------
    34-33 - 15 games left
    They top out at 49-33
    Where will that. put them in the standings?

    Meanwhile
    at 10-7
    Philly at 40-25
    They would be at. 50-32

    So at best they might be . ..what like a 4-5 match up (unless it is something like 5-6 / 3-4)

    ---------------
    11 of their last 15 games are either at home or in New York
    So Slim Reaper will have to put in major work alone

    or 3rd vs 6th. Either way the thought of watching Harden getting eliminated (again). Gives me a hard on.

    The body language and random turnovers after not getting calls lol... Except now he's older and slower.

    It's actually unlikely they meet in the first round. Kyrie has 3 games left, the best they can reach is 7th. I don't think 76ers can get to 2nd especially with Boston and Bucks being red hot

    It is basically a 3 headed monster team.

    Once Maxey and Harden are done, the team cannot win no matter how much Embiid goes to the line.

    I wouldn’t put too much into this result. The nets team was super amped up to play. They hate Harden for being a locker room cancer. They were way more motivated to win than the Sixers were.

    They better dodge the Nets in 1st round. If possible

    Harden-Morey-Doc ultimate doomsday
    fail scenario… Sixers Vs Nets in the 1st round. Sixers blow a 3-1 lead

    This def isn't a good look for Harden I know he has a lot of boosters on this forum but you can't ignore his history of choking under pressure.

    I don't hate Harden btw I just took of my harden tinted glasses since he's no longer a Rocket. Let's not forget his choke job vs Kawhi less Spurs, their H2H when Steph stole his MVP, when Giannis talked smack at him and when everybody in GSW was practically injured and they still lost. As good as he is he is def prone to nights like tonight where he can't score for **** and also gives 0 effort. The only time I can remember he closed out a dramatic game is that H2H with Cp3 in OKC who is def a bigger choker than he is.

    It seems the way to get Harden to play horribly is just make it a big dramatic affair and put the spotlight on him.

    His legacy is already destroyed with 2x wearing a fat suit and bailing on teams and the rep that he chokes when it matters most. He's like the butt of jokes during ASG drafts. Nobody likes him except the team he plays for and even with games like tonight I dunno how long Philly fans will stay loyal. Really sad to see he turned out like this but years of partying and repeatedly quitting take their toll eventually.

    It looks awful, but statement games don't really matter for Harden's rep at this point in his career. It's all or nothing.

    A game like this doesn't matter in the long run (except for our BKY pick).

    Any game that Harden plays that has any kind of personal significance he folds like paper. Ask The Greek Freak.

    Too bad there won't be one more regular season match-up against the Nets.

    I think it goes both ways. Harden is not amped up to prove a point either? Wasn’t he and Durant not getting along?

    Just picking out this part because people like to reference this series a lot. I’m assuming this is 18/19? Durant missed 5 quarters. Everybody else played. The Raptors played a GSW team that was a shell of itself, the Rockets played the full squad.

    Welp, I told you guys after the CP3 Rockets debacle. I also told you when he shrunk against GS (13 turnovers). But they're are posters here who keep Harden’s sweat in a jar so they can feel close to him. He is a QUITTER. He is a stat padder who only competes for stats. When the pressure is on he checks out


    The only time he shows any heart is when he's around rappers in strip clubs

    If Joel demanded a trade, he could actually go anywhere.
