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 did the best thing for both parties by opting in. People keep saying oh if he wanted to leave he shouldn't have opted in. If he does this the sixers essentially spent multiple 1st rounders and depth for a rental and Harden makes less money, it's a lose lose situation. But in opting in to his contract he gets more money this year and the 6ers will recoup at least 1 of their 1st round picks and maybe get lucky with the personnel they get in return.

I think he's gonna go to the heat anyway, they failed to get Dame but if they can send Lowry and a pick or 2 and get back a guy who is at least top 50 and lets be honest, probably already loves Miami, why not? Harden wants to win a chip and the heat were close last year with random dudes from the Y's slow break league next to Jimmy and Bam. He's been liked wherever he goes by his teammates and puts the work in, I think the heat culture turns him into a beast and they're back in the ecf vs the Celtics again if he goes to Miami.
