Imagine subbing Harris for Jerami Grant or OG Anunoby...

To me this is the game where Nurse could try the Bball/Joel lineup

Batum the best player on that Harden trade? Solid defender and good shooter

I love Batum. Feels like he should have been a Spurs player.

Man, I’d hate to have Tatum as my star. He’s so unbelievably streaky. Maybe it’s just against us? I don’t really watch him otherwise.

Yes, for sure. He will be closing games with the starters when the games matter.

These refs don't want the sixers to play defense, I see.

Batum reminds me of that time we had Toni Kukoc. Wished we had him earlier

he's a tough shot maker and taker....when said shots aren't going down its rough.

I blame Drew Hanlen as Biid can be the same way

Run a Maxey/Harris PnR to get Porzingis in the action. We are going to hunt him with Maxey if we play them in the playoffs.

Tatum has a quick first step and Harris is notoriously slow-footed, so he's understandably shook whenever we play them.

He’s Tobias Harris if refs will call his pushoffs

Jaylen left it all on the floor for his contract last year. He ain't got it this year.
2025-2026 Philadelphia 76ers:

Maxey/McCain/Lowry
Edgecombe/Grimes/Gordon
George/Oubre/Edwards
Watford/Barlow/Walker
Embiid/Drummond/Bona/Broome

He doesn't have a size or speed advantage going up against him and Tatum is a pretty good defender.

Once Boston flames out without a title again, he'll demand a trade to go be the man on another team. No way he stays in Tatum's shadow while making more money than Jayson.
