Only would get him if nothing else is really available.

Those Clippers picks looking like gold right now, maybe we can use them to get a real stud like Markannen.

If nothing else is really available this summer, I'm for waiting until the deadline for things to open up rather than flush the rest of Embiid's prime along with the immediate future bringing in an aging, oft-injured player not exactly known for his post season heroics.

I know Haliburton isnt 100%, but he doesnt looks like a good player on the playoffs. His 3 ball is too slow to shoot contested, so hes bricking a lot, and it seems he doesnt have any other shot. Hes a pretty good passer, but he seems limited as a scorer..

Haliburton is a good player, but he can't be the best player on a team. He's too soft. His free throw rate is indicative of how passive a scorer he is.

TJ mvp.He is a great backup pg, i miss him here.

It feels like a crime that TJ isn’t a Sixer. Besides Joel, he’s probably the most obvious Process success story.

My brother closed the TV after the Magic lead by 6pts with around 40 seconds remaining

I was like.. why did he do that?

Cleveland should have closed them out tonight. Can't believe they didn't. I bet Orlando wins this series now.

Harden stinks. We dodged that one.

What's your opinion on George?

The worst part is that they tanked to play the Magic.

There must be some issues going on in that Locker room, if not, i don't get it.

Not paying him and trading him (and having some nice assets back) it's what make me still respect Morey.

I like George, but these last few games have me convinced that his superstar days are behind him. 4 years at over $50 million per would be a disaster.

I would love a two year deal, but the problem is, the Sixers have to make an irresponsible offer to get him. If we make a reasonable offer, he will stay with the Clippers, so we would have to make a franchise crippling type of offer, and he’s not that player anymore.

The Harden experience hopefully served as a cautionary tale that we won't repeat with George or any other pricey, aging "third star" type.

Donovan Mitchell is such a ball hog, I don't know why anyone would want to play with that guy.

I really feel like the Wolves would win it all this year if KAT weren’t so god damn stupid.

I did hear the theory on a podcast recently that Harden’s time in Philly had a major impact on Maxey’s development into a true star scorer. The craft & knowledge he downloaded to Tyrese might’ve been worth it despite the cost.

Totally agree. I was all in on Harden, and it was the best shot in the Embiid era we probably realistically had to get to the finals. To me, signing George would be a disaster waiting to happen. He would only be coming here because he didn't get his price in L.A., and I'm not crazy about giving $50 mil to an older player that in his heart of hearts doesn't really want to be here.

Incredible 4th quarter from the Wolves. Delivering like that in game 1 at Denver is something special.

Ant is an absolute mega star. The turnaround fade dagger & then going coast to coast with 30 seconds left to seal the game. I cannot wait to watch him play the rest of this postseason.

Trading for Harden was understandable at the time. He was huge for Maxey and Embiid. Can't say enough good things about Harden while he was here. I hated to see him go, but paying him would have sunk us. Paying George will do the same. Again, I look for Morey to play the trade market, I look for us to keep our draft pick, and I think our spending in free agency will be moderate, yet effective.

I also think because these playoffs are mostly, specially in the big games, are tough shot making contest down the stretch which Hali isn’t seem to be that good of compared to likes of Brunson, Maxey and Ant.
