      Honestly, I’m not a 76ers fan, but I think it may be time to trade Embiid. Harden seems adamant about not playing anymore and without him Philly definitely isn’t making it out the 2nd round. Maybe trade Harden to LA for Norman Powell, Terence Mann, Marcus Morris, and a 1st. See if Nurse can get all those role players to buy in or try flipping them to Chicago for DeRozan. Either way, I think Embiid requests a trade next summer if philly doesn’t make it past round 2 this year.

Too many NBA players in the current generation lack the humility to understand where they would be in life if not for the people who supported them along their journey. There's finding a way out, and then there is burning a franchise, friends (unless the bond with Embiid was for show), etc.

If Morey did not give him money someone else would have gotten him close to the number he wanted. On the other hand, Morey would not be anything without Harden. If you were referring to the team owners I would agree but the GMs are walking fine lines just like the coaches.

      @@hinjurock70 yes Dame is, you aren't wrong there, but again, your never gonna see a Philly/Portland exchange because neither player wants to go to the other teams... They have their team they want.
      Now forcibly could happen... Yes, but I can't fathom either of those two playing much for either team if that happened.... Harden moreso because he has made it clear he wants Clippers, and with Hardens history, it's not happening
      And to be honest, would Portland even want Harden given his track record?!
      To me right now assuming Dame is gone, is in rebuilding mode, Portland should not want an expiring contract in Harden then Portland is forced to make a difficult decision on its future right off the bat because of what Harden will want in his next contract. And Portland is barely rebuilding.
      So in the end, does Portland really want to add Harden, so in 2 or 3 years have to break up again because Harden handcuffs that franchise plus the fact Harden is no spring chicken either...
      If the franchise is going to be in Scooters hands for the foreseeable future, your gonna need the cap space when you have to renegotiate from Scooters rookie contract, and having an aging Harden shouldn't be in the future plans, nor should Portland trade what available assets to satisfy Harden only to know he has history when he has to perform, then the potential of him going sour on that team because he will get blamed. Again this is assuming Scooter pans out as your franchise player 4 or 5 years down the road.
