James Harden once again has demanded a trade. This time the Sixers have a ton of leverage and this will not end well for the Beard. This is a look at why this time is different and what happens next. - Sport
“How dare they pay him what he’s actually worth!” 🤣 exactly!
Jesus loves you and may God bless you all..
When teams lie to there players, it’s the players fault for being delusional.
When players use there own leverage, their spoiled.
It’s hard to win when dealing with people as moronic as NBA fans!
@@jesussaves852fr
If haliburton is getting 52 mill a year, averaging less points and assists and never even making the play-in, then harden is worth at least that amount or even more, you casuals are pathetic
but if Morey actually said to Harden that he would get the max later if he takes a pay cut, then isn't that actually a good reason to get mad about?? a deal is a deal!!
As a big fan of the 2015-16 OKC Thunder, it really bums me out when my favorite big 3 continue to act like they haven't had any loyalty for a team since then. Westbrook is the only one giving his all on the court every game it seems, but watching KD and Harden bounce around willingly from team to team really takes away from their work ethic/commitment. In a perfect world they would all have an amazing career with tons of success, but these guys are masters at burning bridges at this point.
Westbrook left too, ya know!
@@sty723but the thing is he gave everything to the franchise and it was mutual the thunder’s front office wanted to move on from Russ and Russ wanted a ring which obviously he hasn’t got yet
How many chips would they have if they just stayed together? They were so close.
@@K3andK4 0
@@K3andK4 none, they still couldn't play as a team. 3 guys who want and need the ball, won't win. someone has to play D
"Its always American players with the drama"
The most true thing I've ever heard lol
Yeah I guess Porzingas is from New Jersey
@@mekaikejiani9675what you talking about??? Kp was injured
Funny how not only is this true, but also most of the leagues biggest stars are not from the US at the moment. I think that’ll continue to be honest with the way that the US system works for younger players, just seems to develop flashy guards and guys whose skill set aren’t actually that well suited to fitting into a team at the moment
@@jtfc7286 they are also the ones that complain the most.
KP was also injured(?) in Dallas. He was a non factor when he did play.
Such a shame. Embiid and harden pick and roll is a thing of beauty
Facts
You don't need Harden to run a pick and roll with one of the best centers.
@@ItIsYouAreNotYourEMCHOKE 😂 FAKE MVP 😂 JOKIC > MVPITTY 😂
@@blamegelo9677 I said, one of the best centers. Reading the full context is important. Your caps lock is on by the way.
This is the best news a Rockets fan can hear and the worst news a Sixers fan can hear.
Jesus loves you and may God bless you all..
@@jesussaves852 Amen!!!
@@jesussaves852 didnt ask+ get out of yt comment section pls
Not for Sixers fans. They’ve endured “the process”, Ben Simmons, Doc Rivers and other things. It won’t be good If he plays in Philly the same way he did in the playoffs.
I’m fine with Embiid leaving he’s a quitter coming from a sixers fan
Harden has gotten everything he wants, several times. This is on him to do something with it.
Harden brought this on himself. Now I don’t blame him for getting outta Brooklyn because that was a big mess. But philly is a good spot for him all he’s gotta do is ball out and he’ll be fine
Seriously I actually can’t believe a player can opt in just to be demanded a trade
Especially with Harden, who sabotage teams.
I can’t believe any player would take $14 millions dollars less just to help the team
But you could believe an owner could dump a player or sell a player out and treat them like a business product for whatever reason they wanted.. until the players understood this is a business and exerted more control over their own business needs
@@sting114 if Philly lied to him, he has every right to be pissed.
Any drama involving james harden will never end. That's just the new norm.
This dude have been in drama negotiations since his rokien extension lmao
It turns out that he gave Rockets the best gift by forcing his way out. 😂
Max contracts shouldn’t go to mercenaries. Especially aging ones who disappear at critical moments.
Then don't promise them? I don't know how this is about Harden's play (which is still at a very high level) and not about Philly breaking its word.
Yeah, the two game winners against Boston were such a disappointment from Harden
Mercenaries 🎯
@@adaam509 No one is saying he's trash. But he's not worth a max at this point. Giving a guy like him a max will hamstring a franchise, with the new CBA.
@@yajeel This I agree with. I just hate how all the blame for the Sixers failure is being put on Harden while he literally won them two games, with Embiid out of the spotlight.
Bruh when he watched the ball roll on the ground, I swear I pissed myself laughing so hard. 🤣
Shoutout to Casey very consistent with these uploads 🐐
Is embiid unlucky? sure. but he does have a history of melting down in the playoffs too. He had jimmy butler and couldn’t make it past round 2. He averaged 30 and 10 this year to win MVP and then averaged 23 on 17% from 3. He isn’t that guy.
Face of the franchise whos throwing their teammates under the bus, is not the guy. Embiid is soft like Harden.
@@gmaster0o0I’d argue Embiid is softer. Embiid constantly cries to the media. At least Harden never cried for MVP. Embiid is probably the most overrated player in the league rn and with the new flopping rules he’ll be shown to be the fraud he is.
30 point with 11 ft per game 💀
He’s unlucky but he had his chance This years & choked so bad
the MVP award is a sham. shoulda been Jokic threepeat but voter fatigue + media played a big part in sawying Embiid deserved it
I can’t believe a player can opt in just to demand a trade.
The player power reallt is getting out of hand.. would be really funny to see one of them
get burnt for this sort of behaviour soon, but they all know that if they’re good enough then worst case they’ll still get paid
@jtfc7286 it's either you trade him or he's going to walk for free at the end of the season.
@@heigherheights21 he could’ve left for nothing this year, but nobody offered Harden more than what he’s getting paid now. Philly would be better off with the cap space next year anyway
Agreed
Very well said but I hate it. But the rules allow it.
Very good point about Harden not holding the power and having to play well to earn big next off season
Player empowerment is a good thing. Let players go. Just pay the loyal ones more. Maybe the rules should require that traded players accept a lower pay ceiling for their first two seasons after a trade? Then they can't just abandon teams for a bigger check.
when he went to philly people made jokes about him immediately demanding out. turns out it only took 1 season
that advertisement that he did was absolute golden 😂
Props to you for telling the story man 😂😂
Most of the comments are weird, Harden's not a max player anymore but the 76ers front office shouldn't make promises like that either if they don't intend to keep them. Now they have to trade Harden or risk him walking for nothing, next year. Depending on the return they get in a Harden trade, it could push Embiid to want out as well. So they'll could be restarting the process all over again because they didn't want to give Harden a 2 year max deal.
I was shocked at how few comments mentioned this! I never get why people take such glee in a company doing someone over, whether it's an employee, customer, or other. They lied. The end. I'm not even trying to defend Harden's play. IMO, they made an agreement then broke it. Unless winning the conference finals was a stipulation, he lived up to his side of the bargain and should get the proper compensation.
I said ain't it
I don't believe this ever happened. If it did the team ia circus and no one gonna trust them ever again
@@elg7365 Do you have to believe it though? Couldn't you have just checked whether or not the GM made the comments? I'm sure this isn't the only person talking about it...
They would honor his request if he was worth it. If philly made a deeper playoff run I’m sure he’d get a nice 2 or 3 year max deal
As a Knicks fan I’m not trading RJ, IQ, QG and 6 first round picks for Joel
What are u gonna trade bro 😂 a bunch of role players for a MVP 🤔
Lmao ydkb
I‘m a Knicksfan and I absolutely trade for Joel
@@peacefulwarmingmeditation8085 I know it what must be done but I have a feeling one or two of those young guys can be something big
Yeah, that's an insane amount for an injury prone playoff choker, for this amount of assets you better get a Luka/Giannis/Jokic type of player.
I think this is messed. Poor James is only making $40 mil a year. He’s got kids to feed!
Kids?
Strippers, waitress, bouncers.
@@vladafr😂
Always watch your vids dude. Appreciate ya
I appreciate that
I think Harden has finally shot a big hole in his foot because no matter how well he performs this season, I don't think any team will offer him a big contract . He has shown his true colours and I will be surprised if any team will take the risk of offering anything even close to what he believes he should receive.
That hole in his foot is a big one and I don't see him getting half of what he's getting now.
I have to wonder, will this be his last season in the NBA...........
Loved the conection story for the "commertial break" 😂😂😂
Forget Dame & CJ, Brunson left Dallas and took less money so he can get starting mins as a PG. He liked Luka and the Mavs but didn’t want to play off of the ball or come off the bench. If the NY were to get Dame, that would have defeated the purpose of Brunson coming to NY!!!
nah no way that was not “less money”
@@marcusuniverse2061 not more than the reported (by Brunson’s camp) January 2022 offer. However the Mavs during the summer of 2022 offered more than NY and Brunson didn’t even care to listen to the Mavs!!!
Brunson didn't take LESS $$$. Mark Cuban is an idiot and never offered him enough $$$ -- so lost him for nothing. Cuban did the exact same thing with Steve Nash.
They offered him 50mil for three years and it was a big part of this. Brunson wanted to stay with Luka but Cuban pulled another Nash (didnt resign him right before he won two MVPs.) move and lowballed him. So he didn't leave at first chance, he wanted that deal but Mavs balked. Everything after is a different story because he had a career defining season and now had choices and suitors. Brunson dad being a Knicks assistant and having relationships with Knicks management helped convince him. But the blame for this goes with Dallas.
@@SinaSoh That was Cuban justifying his failure. He didn't even try to match the NY offer and then tried to blame it on Brunson. 😂
Cuban fired Donnie Nelson -- the GM who landed Luka and Brunson in the same draft -- and now all decisions are going to be on Mark. They could have signed Brunson earlier and then traded him to the Knicks as an option.
Mavs have good fans but I don't see them winning anything with Cuban running the entire show.
That JB contract gotta have him even more upset too 😂
What’s Good Am Hoops Early Btw Love The Vids
Admiration for doing the manscape commercial. You'll get the hang of it, like Coach Nick.
He was never really really good in Houston though .. He was great at manipulating the foul rules and made like 15-20 free-throws a game. As soon as they changed the foul rules, he's a nice player. That's it
yup
Facts 💯
Bro said 15-20 free throws at least check out the stats before commenting lies on social media ..... He had lesser free throws than giannis 😂😂
The manscape story was funny 😂 respect for sharing ✊️
You really nailed this topic bro. Harden is definitely cornered. Philly is still great with Maxey and Reed long term.
I don’t understand how OKC doesn’t beat the Knicks offer any day of the week
Because Joel doesn't want to play for OKC
@@kohsmoger1567 Why wouldn’t he want to play for the better team?
Excellent report!
James cares more about his off the court activities than actually winning a ring.
Nice Video bro finally James Harden is Happy
Man I love your videos so hard ❤
That sponsorship was hilarious 💀😂
😂💀💀
Okay ... the Manscape story was the best part of the video! 🤣 Seriously, Harden has obviously not taken a course on gmae theory! You can't cause drama and demand trades multiple time among a small population of owners and think you can continue to pull the same stunt ... especially since he can't win in the playoffs.
Favorite channel to get nba news from
Edit: am hoops every time you post I got to your channel to make sure I never miss a video

AM Hoops with 3 Vids in 3 Days 🔥🔥🔥
That waterpark story… I’m sorry man but that’s just too funny 😂😂
they wrote that rule to only be in the last year of the contract, no doubt next bargaining agreement they'll change it to any season
Yeah. He is already done after he left Houston.
Houston *The beard* was 🔥.
Harden on Houston: dribble dribble dribble, travel, shoot and flop. Every possession.
I love how you said playin in Bosnia, i know we a ghetto country but we aint that ghetto. that shit got me laughin
American phantasmagoria
I would never imagine you would mention my country as tough environment, 😂
amazing vid like always
jumpscare mentioning julian newman at the end like that
Looking at how Ben and James ended up, coupled with a fake MVP, no max contract player would want to sign with the 76ers next year
This were the NBA ratings are going down. We see Superstars demanding to be traded when they quit and wanted to go the easy way.
Great content
I don’t know who’s worse between Simmons or Harden🤷🏿♂️. Nobody is doing player empowerment better than Lebron. The man fulfills his contracts, does his best even if the team is bad. The rest of these guys are really screwing shit up for the next generation.
Lebron? 🤡🚨
Great vid keep up the good work👍
Jesus loves you and may God bless you all..
Dragic for the Pheonix Suns and Enes Kanter for the Utah Jazz are two examples of European players who demanded trades.
Thats the thing about greed some people can never have or get enough.
That Finnister clip gave me a laugh 😂😂
I wish I never heard the manscape promo too much imagery
A lot of the reason we don’t see this with European players is because they’re typically not as spoiled and entitled as American players (which is a reflection of American culture as a whole).
This is the problem of inflating NBA players (US grown) and paying them ridiculous amounts of money. What James Harden has become is the NBA's fault.
It's not just a matter of difficult conditions or something, European players don't do things like this because they grew up with the tradition of club cults, fanatical attitude towards the club and incredible love for them. This is normal in all of Europe, players grow up in such an environment and therefore understand the concept of loyalty and responsibility. All his life, Jokic was surrounded by the rivalry between Red Star and Partizan, Janis with the rivalry between Olympiakos and Panathinaikos, Doncic felt what the rivalry between Real Madrid and Barcelona meant... that simply does not exist in America. European players grow up in a fanatical fan environment and fanatical loyalty to the club, and because of this the concept of constantly changing clubs is foreign to them. Although, maybe that will change with newer generations.
damnn Jalen Brunson + Embiid !!
thats a chip right there
6:20
As a bosnian myself, its not that rough of an environment, its quite actually a beautiful place to visit.
It’s the American prejudice and the USA supposedly being “the greatest nation on earth”
@@HectorMurrietaits such a wonderful and beautiful place, took a while to rebuild and gain it’s beauty after the war, but i can 100% say that its way better than america
America rn sucks
If Joel actually demands a trade i just know he's not gonna go to the Knicks because its the Knicks Brooklyn might actually be a possibility because it's not like they're trading for him now
that manscaped plug is rough homie.
Man, I’ve nicked my scoatch several times and it hurts every time. Then I gotta shave those sideburns off my dangle and that’s a hazard too
Huge Fan This About To Be A Good Video
How much yo buy out Dame's contract or can it be bought out and play where he wants idk just a thought
That voice crack at 3:30 💀
This is the best channel in world
the only thing i need is the old chou dragon boy animation
Manscaped is waving at harden
The Beard's gotta go
That’s a good one
I might just buy that manscaped just because of that traumatizing story! Lol 😂
Harden epitomizes what sucks about the NBA
I had a small cut with that Manscape clippers. 😢
If pilly pulls that moce on harden thats insane
No team is giving Harden a max deal, harden is delusional.
Is that manscape story were your nickname came from?
Embiid to the knicks would make me an immediate NY fan.
Manscaped is making the rounds again. It’s not a terrible product, but there are much better quality ones for the same money. A pair of underwear and a travel bag don’t make a difference, and the subscription service for their lotions gets kind of pricey.
Why would any team want this guy on their team? He's will just flake on you when he dont get his way.
As a Knicks fan, I hate that trade. Embiid is not playoff proven. He hasn’t shown that he can will his team to a finals or even a conference finals.
Not playoff proven? The only reason Embiid/Sixers didn't make it to the Finals is because Kawai Leonard hit a lucky shot. In other years was left hanging by Ben Simmons and then Harden.
@@LeRoi33073lol jimmy butler was there stop it casual. Harden also won 2 games in the 2nd round by himself, while Embiid chose to choke all series. He not that guy. Also its Jimmy/Sixers who almost made the finals if not for Kawhi, not Embiid/Sixers, he not the leader of that team, u delusional.
@kuhieyei3855 When Butler was on the Sixers, he clearly was the leader, but the two played well together, which is why the Sixers went far. Harden has shown his tendencies on 3 different playoff clubs, so we already know how that plays out, and because of that, they don't mesh well.
As far as the Knicks, I didn't say anything about making Embiid the leader. The Knicks already have one in Brunson (he clearly proved himself last year, especially during the playoffs), and the two are a perfect fit together as far as how they play the game. Plus, Embiid's a HUGE improvement over Randle both on the floor and in the locker room.
Thibs is a great defensive coach, but anything outside of that he really sucks. He thrives on players who can score for themselves while everyone stands around waiting to shoot a 3. An Embiid/Brunson match-up would work well because of the space they create on the floor because their game has to be respected. Randle has already shown that he doesn't show up or can be neutralized in the playoffs.
See, you just proved yourself to be the delusional casual because you're looking for the big splash as everyone else does, whereas I'm merely looking at the productive piece that fits due to how they play.
Your a Knicks fan I don’t blame you
@@LeRoi33073 well you still delusional AF cause I never said anything about Embiid to the Knicks, I do also think he fits well there, so like 70% of your essay already doesnt make sense. I was debunking your comment that implies Embiid is indeed playoff proven when he's really not, and I presented you the reasons why. You also said it was the Embiid/Sixers, so I pointed out it was Jimmy/sixers. tf u sayin dawg HAHAHHA. Anyways Harden does choke a lot like you said, so does Embiid, he choked on nearly every postseason, and the one that you said he played well alongside Jimmy Butler, he damn averaged *20ppg* , by far the lowest in his playoff career, shooting 45% and 30% from three. If thats playing well for you, you should play Checkers instead.
Edit:
Im gonna believe you he playoff proven if he got out of the 2nd round, Harden atleast took the KD Warriors in the *WCF* to 7 games and would have won if he didnt pull an Embiid. Now they on the same team, when your 2 superstar players are the best chokers of the game, you aint goin anywhere.
As to the latter part of the vid, keep in mind that Embiid ONLY started getting in actual shape after Doc Rivers came in as the coach. The REAL question isn't about Harden, he's screwed 12pts from North. We ALL saw Embiid quit last season in the playoffs, not even TRYING to play through his injury. Will Embiid REVERT to his prev habits or double down on off-season conditioning after YET ANOTHER early exit from the post-season?
IOW: Did Doc Rivers FORCE Embiid into the physical monster he became or did he instill the habits that Embiid will now embrace for the length of his career... however long that may be with his injury issues?
Crazy how people IGNORE that he took LESS money based on an AGREEMENT and they LIED and took advantage of him but the narrative isn't communicating that AT ALL just slander James based on his behavior with OTHER ORGANIZATIONS as if that factors in THIS ONE sixers did harden dirty and made him take less shots unless embiid was down for the count making harden look like he's regressed more than he truly has if they promised him that and he played a season at HALF his worth and they now MAGICALLY want to give him ONLY what's he's worth despite conversations than yes that's WILD that's like a guy telling a girl who's waiting for marriage that he's going to marry her and gets engaged does the dirty deed the day before the wedding and the day of the wedding he breaks up with her NOONE is going to say "well she should have made him wait" EVERYONE is going to say "wow he found a virgin in today's society and immediately took advantage of her he's wrong for that ?" Cause she did what she was supposed to do in this metaphor harden is the female victim
Rough places…like BAWSKNEEUH 😂😂😂😂
Dame to the Heat 🔥
i think he's said that it was his practice jersey in his pocket
Homie says it's only Americans doing what James Harden does overlooking the fact one of the key figures of his Ben Simmons is Australian.
And as for Europeans look up Alex Len, darko Milicic and see what the rumors surrounding Luka and a trade out of Dallas.
It's not just Americans dude.
Giannis stayed cause he won a championship.
Jokic just built different.
And the Americans you referenced stayed with their teams for a long time before requesting trades.
Harden stayed in Houston for 9 seasons.
Harden is a baller he will be fine
how many steps did harden make in 3:38?
I put this on in the background doing some stuff around the house and my brain tunes back in on Casey talking bout pubes 💀
Hahaha!!
great video as always casey, but i will add that us sixers fans don't take keith pompey (or many philly sports media people) seriously, he's more often than not very inaccurate and ends up stirring controversy for no reason-- though the sixers organization is such a shitshow that i can't blame embiid if he requests a trade. i also can't wait for harden to be traded but tbh him getting doc rivers fired was like the lottery for us lmao
Nobody ever thought Julian Newman would be a top pick 💀
The amount of 1st picks teams ask for in trades is insane. Paul George and Gobert deals really screwed the league up. 5 1st rounders for PG who hasn't won anything and can't stay healthy. 4 1st rounders for Gobert who sure is good defensively but he can't guard the perimeter and has no offensive game.
Dame Lillard also doesn't have any control and he has 3 years but ppl say oh he can only go to Miami so just give Portland a second rounder and trash players. It should be the opposite dame has zero leverage and harden HAS leverage bc he is on an expiring contract and can agree to an extension to whoever he wants.
Sixers will pull a Ben Simmons but will Harden pull that too? History says no, but it will be intriguing.
6:15 "Its always the American players with the drama", wait Ben Simmons is from Australia sooooo.....
Goran Dragic: 😅 riiiight
That manscaped story makes me sad and sorry
You have to put a huge minus on that 74 mil cap space because maxey needs to be maxed out!
