Like Niang signed a 3/25 contract that should have been similar money for Harris maybe a bit more.


Niang was at least more of a three point specialist. He'd shoot more threes while playing over 10 less minutes per game than Harris, not to mention at 40%. Harris was just decent at "everything" but not very good at anything. Not a legit threat from deep to draw defense out from Joel. Too timid moving towards the paint with the ball. Not at all a playmaker to at least turn his fear with the ball into buckets for teammates, and finally an overrated one-on-one defender (see Onunoby highlights). The team would've been better off splitting his minutes between a Niang and hell anyone else on our bench.

Niang came in as a sniper, and delivered what he was brought here to deliver, a 3-pt. threat who could hit 40% on volume and wasn't ever afraid to fire away. Tobias was a 'jack of all trades' who was no more than decent at any of them, and disappeared in any big moment.

The only difference a lesser contract would have made is that it would have been easier to ship him out as trade filler.

The difference is it would have allowed us to bring in a proper 2nd star while Maxey was still on his rookie deal.

It would have made a massive difference.

One of the biggest frauds and softest players i have ever seen.

Really it hurts to think Biid wasted most of his athletic prime playing with Ben Simmons and Tobias Harris. That's some all time BS right there.

Not only mentally weak and frauds of a players, also terrible basketball fits.

Not very surprising when the number to beat is zero.

You and I essentially drew as many as Tobias.

Bumping this baby back up now that our favorite whipping boy is officially headed to Detroit. Good luck, I guess?

GOAT is fright. There might be something to reading books. Tobias and his father do an excellent job of signing highly lucrative contracts.

See? Now this red uni they could switch back to the Barkley-era red ones. Keep the blue and white they have now, and add the black Iverson-era jerseys as an alternate.

Return to Philadelphia 76ers
