Mann was reportedly untouchable in a trade for Harden, and he did not get traded. How do you think he's performed since then?

While the primary goal of the trade was to get the first round picks, the Sixers got a huge upgrade getting Batum and Covington in the deal. Can't say enough about how great they are defensively. And can't say enough about how washed PJ Tucker is. Once Oubre comes back, the Sixers have a solid 9 man rotation with Covington, Batum, Reed, and Beverly coming off the bench. They went from having an extremely weak bench to a very solid one.

After the trade, I heard from Clippers fans that the Sixers were fleeced because the Clippers kept Hyland and Mann, but that doesn't really seem to be the case.
