Aren’t there cap holds and whatnot too?

I think it was Zach Lowe I was listening to a couple weeks ago that was talking about their situation and how their idea of cap space isn’t what it’s being made out to be.

That’s the number I had in mind once the cap holds are out the way. It’s $178m in cap holds lol

Harden is definitely a loser with a terrible playoff track record, but I don’t think any of his trade demands have been unreasonable. I know it’s an unpopular opinion.

1) Houston was clearly done and rebuilding.
2) The Nets were a mess due to an unprecedented global event and Kyrie’s issues.
3) Morey seems to be playing games with his contract and that doesn’t seem out of character for him.

 

[amitt5504]

The best he can do is 15? Ehhh

Oh he can easily get 25-30 with the money going out now. I just threw out 15 since he already robbed us once

 

[storm2006]

Sixers need to punt

Easier said than done but Harris and harden aren’t long term pieces and they’re up

It’s over Breh, no point in muddying the books with bandaids who aren’t going to be much better

Can’t believe I am agreeing with Osh but the Sixers really should go scorched earth. Not even considering the way he played in Game 7, James locked himself into his current position with his off-season decisions the past two summers.

Weeks ago he had the option to separate himself from Morey via his opt out but made a conscious decision to return. FOH.

Seriously though, who's advising dude?

His childhood friend.

Ain’t no market for Harden so I guess he should just be prepared to sit.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

His childhood friend.

your childhood friend would never flagrantly lie on your behalf.

in fact when my childhood friend told my girl, that I never had sex with Becky,
that was 100% true.

This is why their situation is so rough and the idea of holding James to be petty is wild.

You may not love the Clippers deal - but the next FA cycle is bad bad and you're probably not even gonna have the money to max a PG or Kawhi if they do opt out and decide to move on.

They have picks left to trade at all or nah?

 

[lovehateself]

so the bromance really is over between harden and morey

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

What is Philly’s plan with cap space? Especially when Maxey will be getting maxed this upcoming summer.

Just the lesser of two evils at this point

They have 2029, otherwise they can't trade picks because they are already owed to another team or have to wait until draft night.

Good thing is philly thriving in sports outside of the Sixers

Many of us philly guys still got Phillies/Harper Eagles/Hurts to cheer for if this sixers season is a dud

most team fan bases only got 1 decent team in the city sometimes none

Well be fine in philly

[Mister Meaner]

Philly is processing into a glorious mess.

I actually want Jo to stay but how can you blame dude for a demand elsewhere at this point?

 

[Maximus Meridius]

This fool Harden going out bad


Not surprised though this was always him.

 

[pmatic]

 

[Maximus Meridius]

I can't believe that's real.

Right. The James Harden era might be over.

 

[aepps20]

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Hardens agent trying to keep his reputation intact for future jobs I guess lol

 

[frshstunna]

That's why I thought it was AI generated.

It’s wild that we’ve gotten to the point where it is a legit question if its AI or not, more crazy times ahead

Harden wildin tho, he gotta accept the fact that he stuck in Philly right now

 

[pums]

Harden is just concussed
