The only way we be able to trade him is to trade him along with Harris and that ain't happening

What? now you guys have really lost it, Embiid and Harden are really good, Maxey is so much worse it's not even worth it to discuss.
If you think Embiid and Harden can't be part of a championship team, may as well trade them for picks and the best you can get to rebuild. But no half assing please, either we help Embiid and Harden or we blow it up, not this "let's not do anything" BS.

Joel has never made it out of the 2nd round.

Harden's playoff production is well documented.

Is what it is.

Brett + Simmons, Embiid is still recovering, + he has been injured most of the time in playoffs.

Tucker/Niang
Tobias/McDaniels
Embiid/Harrell/Reed

Seems like we’re comfortable on 10Reb% PFs like Tucker (Heat) and Tobi
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

What do you mean by "what type of moves"? Again, I'm not sure what you're looking for. I told you: moves where I feel the team gets more back in value than they gave up. If you're not looking for player specifics, how else am I supposed to answer that question?


But what are those kinds of moves given our context, what do you expected to get given what we have to offer. Again, it's not that difficult, you can tell me "we could get a minimum decent center for a second", is that a reasonable value for example?


I'm even given you the advantage of not having to name players, not that you should care, you actually said at one time we should have move Ben for Levert and Brogdon and said that Morey should have been fired for not trading for Harden (not that you now want Morey fired, in part, for trading for Harden)


Can't answer the question without knowing the name of the player. My answer I gave you is the best I'm going to be able to give you based on your question, sorry. I can only judge specific trades with specific players.

Embiid is 3rd in RPM, he is an amazing player, lay off the crack guys.

We wouldn't have gotten Harden if he was Houston Harden, but he is still a very good player, he is 15th in RPM.

Question is.. what is our plan for McDaniels? Same with Vanderbuilt or Harrell as a back-up small ball C?


Vanderbilt is better player imo

We are almost last in reb and he doesn't help with that


Vanderbilt is better but Mcdaniels is a similar player. There's always a chance Harden can get a hold of him .

Our main issue is the bench, let's stop about Embiid and Harden please. Team falls apart when Harrell + Maxey + Thybulle and company plays.
Trade Maxey while his value is still relatively high.

People thought they were getting MVP Harden.

That guy is gone. And even when he was around, he didn't exactly have a great playoff track record.

Listen, even in retrospect the Harden deal was a good one. It just wasn't the best Simmons trade they could have made IMO.

Giannis was able to win it with Khris Middleton as 2nd opt
Steph was able to win it with Klay as 2nd opt

We got the top two scoring duo in the league who can run the most lethal PnR. Two elite ISO players.

We have James Harden. And we still need help?

You got 20ppg scorer off the bench and a 16ppg scorer as 4th option. How many contenders can say the same thing?

Somethings wrong.

I think the team is fine. We’re just having a rough patch

Keep Harris, let Butler go.
Draft Fultz instead of Tatum.
Trade Mikal Bridges after drafting him.

Management moves have kept us from getting past the second round.

I guess the trade is ok but unfortunately McDaniels is a terrible rebounder also. That Achilles heel is still there.

Unless we get a big by the 3pm, he doesn't help our weaknesses

Vanderbilt is a better defender, rebounder and athlete. He also has playoff experience something McDaniels does not have

I refuse to believe this is the best we could have gotten for Thybulle
