Our window for winning a championship is closing faster than we'd hoped for. Sucks to admit it, but it is what it is. Guess it was always a risk.

It was only a matter of time for Harden I guess.

So much about this team and current players that I wish it was like 10 years ago, and this window of opportunity to win a championship wasn’t during their declining years.

Given the large number of Aussies on the team and in the organization, it'll be very telling if a deal happens and Simmons is redirected.

He is vaccinated. He would actually fit but the challenge will be 4th quarter playoff games in the penalty. I honestly want Harden to stay but Nash needs to stop this 40 minute back to back nonsense. Use the bench and rookies in fluid rotations with some designed plays. And Kyrie has to buy in. A united big 3 while healthy is a chip. There is no question in my mind. Spacing would be amazing. It’s really sad actually.

Harden is as good as gone. He's probably told management he wont resign which has led to all these trade talks.

The big 3 are great together but they do not have a common goal. It was fun when it lasted.

I look forward to possibly playing a more uptempo style with Simmons pushing the ball. If we can snag Maxey in the deal that would be even sweeter.

A Harden trade means bye bye officially to the Championship run this year and will have to reset next year.


No it doesn't. Harden sucks right now.

Simmons + Maxey would make us a better team in my view.

We would become a scrappier younger team.


Our play style will immediately pick up the pace.

Prok, I told you that Harden and Kyrie had issues. That crap about them being tight and everyone supporting Kyrie is BS. Kyrie was talking passive aggressive about Harden to the media for weeks and Harden kept saying there were internal issues.

I don't blame Harden for not wanting to play with Kyrie. But we need to move on from Harden and play at a better pace.

Been saying that all along. Internal issues, internal issues. People just waved it off.

The ironic thing might be that Kyrie gets mad and takes the shot after Harden is gone.

If that's the case, Kyrie might be one of the biggest if not the biggest headcases in the world.

It is being reported that the Wolves will not give up draft capitol for Simmons and Tobi Harris. Also that the 6ers want a top 40 player for Ben. Most people have Harden as a top 10 player in the league. We absolutely have to get back more than just Ben and Filler. We should get Maxey or if another team is involved some other talent. We should also make sure they take Millsap and Carter.

Having Ben and Kyrie on a same team... damn I'm not sure I'm ready for this. Marks/Tsai better give us legit coach along, otherwise we need to riot.

Actually Thubully and Curry along with Ben will be OK return. Not what we gave up but at least something to work with.

Kyrie is absolutely toxic. I don't care what anyone says.

Would prefer Maxey but I'll take what we can get.

We look absolutely terrible tonight too. Kyrie isn't even trying out there. Maybe he needs to go too

I guess Kess is our starter from now on. I don't see how you not start him. 3 and D guy who don't need ball.

Maybe he make Joe expendable.
