Harden passes, but he dominates the ball to an extreme extent before he does. Good luck generating ball movement in a Harden offense.

Embiid needs the ball also. He is not going to be happy being Harden’s pick and roll guy.

Rivers would have to get pretty creative to get both players to buy into an offense featuring each of them.

Beal would fit seamlessly.

This. Harden is super ball dominant. Embiid is ball dominant. It's difficult to meld those players. It CAN work but I could VERY easily seeing one or the other getting pissed because they aren't getting touches. Embiid is just now starting to appreciate the value of distributing the ball from the block. Putting him down low just to wait for a pass from Harden doesn't make a ton of sense to me.

Swapping Simmons defense withe Harden's defense is going to make the defense dramatically worse.

Pull the trigger, Philly!! :hope:

Harden will bring down the '6ers.

Kyrie will bring down the Nets.

The road clears for Boston. :nod:

Well, the Heat and Bucks are still there.

*Looks at our 4-5 record*

Nevermind.

I don't see how Harden ruin Philly
We rarely agree but I agree with you.

Harden has never had a big guy like Embiid and I think he has been sharing the ball in Houston so far this season.....I think he'd be happy to be outta Houston and embrace the chance to win a title with a talented big man in Embiid and Harris would be a nice 3rd option.....plus Curry and Green?

I think Doc could make it work.

He could make it work. And the Sixers likely would be a very good regular season team.

Giving up Maxey as well is complete bullshit. I would sooner give up 2 future 1st than Maxey and I don't want to do that either.

PG-Harden
SG-Curry
SF-Green
PF-Harris
C-Embiid

Honestly Harfen has not even acknowledged the season has started so I wouldn’t be using anyrhing he has done as an example.
