Not hating. Like Bel said I hope he wrecks the leauge and kicks ass.

Just I have a feeling he's gonna have his issues when something happens.

Really tired of projecting what Ben will or won't become.

This trade was all about maximizing the current window Embiid has to win a championship. I'm not a big Harden guy, but it was time to go for it, and to get Harden without Maxey or Mattisse was really well done.

Lol. You have no idea what's been unleashed, do you?

Here's the thing. If y'all remember, I told you Simmons wasn't gonna stay in Philadelphia. I questioned whether he'd sign his extension for trying to get to LA.

Ben Simmons will be a Los Angeles Lakers after this contract ends. He'll sign his 3rd contract to be in LA. It might coincide with LeBron James retiring.

Then you acquire a Rick Mahorn type top put him on his ass. Then watch him whine and cry

Now this I certanily agree with. This was why I asked this morning about the Lakers maybe getting involved and doing a three or even four team deal with Ben going to LA.

By the way, today is Paul Millsap"s birthday, he's 37.

The great thing is the 76ers now have $67m in workable contracts over the next 2 years and when you add Harris' $33m, that's $90m in Embiid's 29th year.

That's the ability to add some real talent if this doesn't work out.

Have to think Tristan Thompson and Robin Lopez are the two main guys to look for on the "backup center buyout market"

Is it 100% they buy Thompson out?
