Maxey on a max is less risky than giving Harden the max.

Get Seth Curry back and pay James what’s left from that. He’ll still get about $35 million.

Celtics are gonna have a problem in the second round cause they going to have to face Embid

I literally don’t get why older players demand 50 million dollar contracts that end up becoming huge drags on the franchise. We’ve seen this time and time again, Kyle Lowry, Westbrook, even the suns always offered cp3 up first. Harden while being an elite playmaker is simply not good enough offensively in terms of points production or even defensively to justify him getting that much. They should give him no more than 38 in my opinion.

Sorry the Sixers just can’t give him 50 million. It will absolutely obliterate the franchise. Embiid will never win a chip here with harden taking that much money. I hope morey isn’t this stupid. We have enough issues with tobi’a contract. The last thing we need are fans endlessly complaining about his contract. James is going to get all the Tobias hate if he end up scoring only 15 pts a game. Maxey and melton are up for extensions too soon. No no no and no

Hey Stephen, Joel will not have a historic season with James Harden. Thats a fact. Harden made Joel unguardable.

James Harden leaving after they lose in the playoffs and he’s going to Phoenix.

I am a Sixers fan. And Harden can go ahead and go there. Yes Harden is nice but he not worth a max at this point. I will take my chances on Mcclung next year until we get that Tobias contract off the books.
