That doesn’t make much sense to me. Sports is adversity and champions respond to adversity. Embiid and Harden are pretty good at sports. Having versatility and multiplicity gives a team better options to handle adversity.
The way I see it, the Sixers depth took a hit because of that trade.
Harden has not shown a knack for handling adversity yet. He's yours now so you gotta stan for him but we really have no idea how it's gonna look. That's the fun of it!
Agreed! Their bench is complete trash. In my mind, I start Harden Green Thybulle Harris and Embiid just so you have some bench in Maxey. I think there’s a bit of redundancy in Maxey game and Harden game so Maxey may be best suited running the show with the 2s and playing iso ball with drive and kick or drive and finish. Another possibility is the Sixers start Isaiah Joe instead of Green to give better shooting around Embiid Harden. But I agree…they took a hit on depth. Watch this Bassey kid though. Good early returns and Drummond moving out opens him up to be Embiid’s primary back up.
Fair comment on Harden and adversity and maybe fair to say to Embiid as well. His no show in Game 4 of the Toronto series the Kawhi year was the reason the Sixers lost that series. The other side of that is that neither guy had an option like the other before. Embiid has never had a 3 level scorer that can close and get buckets. Harden has never had a dominant big. I think they have many options on offense which is great cause I’m worried about the defense. Sixers will likely have to out score teams.
Damn! That bitch is lucky he’s at home. He does that at Cameron and he may not get out alive.
Thanks captain obvious
