    If you think he is washed then you just need to go watch what he did tonight to the Grizzlies. He bent Dillon Brooks and whoever they sent at him over and went to work..

    The rockets would be lucky as hell if we get this rejuvenated ultra efficient harden

    Did y’all see Harden tonight? 31, 7, and 7 on 10-16 shooting against a top ranked Grizzlies defense

    he is still that guy

    anyone who doesn’t want him back licks doorknobs and toilet seats

    there is no good argument against it…zero…none

    people either still angry or bitter or trying too hard to be different

    Embiid is by far the best player harden has played with sheesh. He was 70% tonight and still had a monster game. Can you imagine harden from 2019 paired with embiid. They would win 70 games

    I hope and pray this dude gets a ring this year and comes back home after. I just want him to win a damn ring before he hangs them up.

    I think we shouldn’t sign anyone and wait to see if someone wants to come here in 2025 or 2026

    I guess it all depends on how one anticipate will play in 3-4 years. I am not as optimistic as you and some others.

    Headband harden is lethal. Every time he has the headband he either scored 50 points 40 or 30 plus.

    CP3 was by far the best player Harden will ever play with. He impacts the game like no other. Shame he got injured. We basically did win 70 games with him.

    I remember Headband Harden against Philly actually. Dropped a 40 point trip dub on 'em.

    No Embiid is on another level. He is an absolute freak show.

    Nah, Cp3 was Harden's best teammate in his prime. He was better fit next to Harden as well because he needed the ball way less than Embid does now.

    Embiid is an MVP candidate. This guy virtually has no weaknesses on both sides of the ball.

    a totally disagree. CP3 may not put up the monster stats but he just has more impact on the game. Embiid spends half the game flopping around and looking at refs to bail him out. Prime Chris Paul was something else. Dude could do what he wanted when he wanted. Made everyone around him better z Shame he got injured at the worst times. But Embiid is the same way always getting injured at the worst times. Embiid is very much a me player literally doesn't make his teammates better. Sixers offense isn't gonna win in the playoffs. Too many guys standing around.

    Just look at his playoff PER. CP3 was off the charts good. Second only to Jordan.

    And there is also this dude named Kevin Durant... who's miles better than Embid.

    It's strange to me. He wasn't leaving Houston because he wanted to, but he was trying to win. A lot of his business is here and he has always been a good person. Now he wants to come back here which is awesome. We could use a veteran. Jalen certainly could use it.

    It's guys like DD who hate him and sit around blaming him for everything

    Well I should have termed it as more dominant player. But yeah you’re points are valid

    There literally is not a good argument against it
