The weird thing is, who did Sixers get instead of paying Harden? I am looking at the roster of Sixers and all I can see is PJ Tucker and I feel like that’s not a huge deal as people make it out to be. They have Embiid, Harden, Harris is a good player, now PJ Tucker and that’s about it? Do you really think that they could make it to finals with these players?
I am not saying it’s impossible, of course they could still be a good team, but not like getting a cut suddenly made them insanely good, not like they got another superstar. It would have been awesome if they somehow got a third star to the team, that would make sense, but PJ Tucker is the place where that extra money went.
I understand your opinion, but for me they already have enough scoring machines,
Harden, Embiid, Harris and Maxey all are capable of bringing you decent scoring stat, while adding tucker and Harrell
as defensive stopper which they are really missing after letting Green to be traded. It will be the rotations that are
important now for the Sixers, but like what I have said, in scoring end, they are complete in my opinion.
