The 76ers should just keep James Harden (alien.top)

The trade package the Clippers want to send looks like shit, and Harden was the one who chose to opt in to the deal so why should he have the right to demand a trade. They should tell Harden to either show up and stop being a baby or he’ll get fined + waste a year of his contract. If the 76ers accept that bad offer they’re still in a bad position anyway.

Nick Nurse is a good coach way better than Doc, I think Harden should give it a shot they can go far in the playoffs. If it wasn’t for him and Embiid choking plus Doc Rivers they would’ve made the conference finals easily last year.

Harden won’t be on the Sixers next season regardless.

At that point it’s better to take the 1st vs nothing especially since the Sixers currently only have their 2030 1st as Draft Capital to use in a Trade outside of a Draft Day Trade this year since they have their 2024 1st but can’t Trade it because OKC has 2025/26 and Nets have 2027/28 Protected.

Lol a lot of the takes people have on reddit are dumb. "They should just keep him on the team to spite him. Who cares if they throw away the season, let him walk for nothing, and risk losing Embiid. They should also keep him on a cap hold. Who cares if it screws up their free agency plans?". It's very /r/TopMindsOfReddit thinking right there. This is why you people are not GMs.

It's not best to take 1 FRP + scraps right now. They can get that at the deadline too.

No one is giving up a 1st at the deadline for two months of Harden
