Sixers are better without Harden (alien.top)

Sixers dont need Harden. Maxey is a better player at this moment. He shoots 41% from 3's and he can finish at the rim which Harden cant do anymore. Assists arent really that impressive when youre playing with the 2x scoring champ. Anyone can just give him the ball. Sixers almost beat the championship favorites and with the acquisition of Oubre they have a solid squad.

They were actually better with Harden off the court last year, but still really great with him.
