@bksballer89 he going to Miami. Won't play till after the AS break? LOL.

Traveling with the team mean he going to play in the next 6 days?

What's funnier is watching Sixers fans trying to convince themselves. lol

Convince ourselves of what? That he is an elite offensive talent and weak defensive player? That he's moody and petulant?

I think most of us know the risks that come with him. But we also recognize that he also gives us a clear chance at a title. Seems some of you don't recognize that and think he's not that good. That's fine.

I don't think DJ read the article. It says in the article that there is no timetable for his return. Just says that he's with the team and it's encouraging that he has already joined the team.

lol

Not going to go through it all with you again.

And he's still shooting 40% from 3.

You pick some of the strangest hills to die on.

Uh, I'm not dying.

I live in Houston. I am well aware of the cons on Harden. I am also well aware that he looks to be on the downside of his career.

He is a risk for sure and may flop big.

He is still better than having that bitch Ben Simmons.

 

[bksballer89]

I think it's actually the opposite. He isn't a top 10 player or at least has not displayed that. Philly knew the issues that came with Harden and so did Brooklyn trading for him. He isn't the player he once was but still a star, not a superstar like he once was. He absolutely is a diva, if you don't see that you are lying to yourself.

they are the biggest fanboys now lol. The guy forced his way out of 2 teams in less than years in his prime. If that's not a diva then i don't know what is

First, we were delusional thinking Simmons had any trade value whatsoever.
Then we were told that the Sixers had no leverage.
Then we were told we couldn't get a top 30 player.

Trade goes through.

Now, we're delusional for thinking that Harden replacing Curry makes us better.

Eh, it's just anti-Process groupthink.

If he's traveling with the team? He gonna play in more than 15-20 games this season.

If Harden returns to his prebitch form or close to it then 76ers have a great shot to win it all no question. If he keeps playing like he did with the Nets I don't see it.

They will be improved because even suboptimal Harden is an all star player.

Ben Simmons got traded to the Nets and now BKS all over his jock.

The James Harden hate is real.

or traveling with the team can mean they want to get him up to game shape.

Primarily because he isn't scared to shoot the ball.....rather than just layups and dunks.....

Watch how revisionists spin what they used to say when he was in Philly. LOL.

 

[Iggloo]

He would take a shot and clank it, hit the wall or something.

There's a connection between Morey and Harden that us mere mortals aren't really in on.

You care to wager he plays in more than 15-20 games?
