of course he is ready.

And let me say this, this was a great trade for the Nets too. They just got 3 starters and 2 picks for a guy that did not want to be there. So this IMO is a win win for both teams. I still really have my worries about Harden, but not giving up Thybulle or Maxey is the winner for me. So essentially we traded Harden for Curry. Drummond will be a loss for sure, but dont discount Bassey IMO. I really like him a ton.

Bucks and Nets got very, very good.

Harden doesn't make it a cake walk for the 76ers. They still have major needs.

I think Thybulle could still be traded by 3
There's no way. None.

They desperately need Thybulle to guard Durant and other offensive stars and provide a bit of athleticism.

LOL I had bets from the start of the season for the Sixers to win the conference and the title....MGM is now offering a huge buyout. So I think Vegas believes this was a win for the Sixers.

Whereas Steven A Smith thinks the Nets won this trade in a landslide

Wow. This is a big deal.

I just heard that Harden opted into his 22-23 year as a part of this trade. That means the 76ersnhave him for 2 years and they don't have to commit to that $247m extension next summer.

This is huge.

[Following the move, Harden will also choose to exercise his $47.3-million player option for the 2022-23 season, sources told The Athletic's Shams Charania.]

Do you think that means they're going to have to find a way to move Harris in the offseason? Or can the 2022-23 roster exist with Embiid, Harris, Harden, money-wise?

Cant wait to see how Ben quickly recover's from his "mental health" issues.

By my math, Embiid+Harris+Harden next season = $117M

Massive. Meaning they don't have to max him until after next season if something goes all to hell.
