mfers doubted Morey. would've been a franchise ending disaster if he gave in and maxed out HarFatass

Idk apparently ownership pushed for the trade not Morey

[–] EaglesPvM@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

It does appear ownership bumped up the timeline Morey had, wanting to avoid another Ben Simmons fiasco. But Morey is the one who didn’t give Harden the contract, shopped him, and ultimately put the trade together (which ownership then urged him to take)

At least that’s how I interpreted it

[–] Ok_Pear6395@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah Morey not giving him what he wanted I agree with 100% correct. Granted it was reported he was willing to make him an offer for I believe a 2-3 year deal with the last year being a club option so who knows

Morey probably expected harden to be less ass in the playoffs

[–] definitelynotaspy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Come on man you can do better than HarFatass

Larden is right there

Absolutely, and the nephews on this sub acted like we were crazy for not maxing him lol. Morey is a top tier GM for a reason.

[–] Cudizonedefense@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Very few people were acting like you were crazy for not maxing him

The criticism of the sixers I saw was that Morey promised to max him and he didn’t but supposedly would trade harden to the clippers so harden opted in for that. Whether or not this is true was the debate

The majority of this sub was absolutely not saying the sixers are dumb not to max harden

[–] zaviex@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They also actually believe Morey promised him a max which makes no sense at all. the conditions for a max were better last summer.
