Irrational hate = pointing out he can’t play against length.

I've talked about this for 4 years.

The 76ers do not have the size or athleticism they need.

This is a 6-1, 6-4 starting backcourt with limited athleticism.

You're blaming him for being 22 and 6-1. You said he's not good enough.

So. Yes. That's irrational. Show me another team that allows Tatum to guard their scoring guard.

No 6-1 guard is beating a superior 6-8 defender.

Again. Yes. Irrational hate.

Maxey is not Iverson.

Tobias Harris is honestly a pretty dumb player on defense.

He is always rotating too much and just leaves his guy for open 3s.

PJ Tucker sitting in the corner isn’t going anywhere so yes he is going to have probably beat better defenders in the playoffs. If he can’t that’s fine, but Sixers will need to account for that.

We know Harden is cooked and can’t even jump. He can’t be consistently your 2nd scoring option. It has to be Maxey.

He plays flatfooted and he doesn't anticipate well at all, it shows up in blow bus and the defensive boards. His deal can't end soon enough.

And Harden is having to beat the Celtics best defender.

He can’t physically beat Brown

James Harden is Ben Simmons right now. No interest in even shooting

Whose fault is it that Tucker is starting as a F.and remains on the floor despite the obvious affect on Maxey, limiting his effectiveness while also being a 4 on 5 anchor around the offense's neck?

You attack Maxey every game.

This is the matchup problem that Boston and Miami present. This is a personnel issue created by fraud Morey and perpetuated by Rivers by not playing McDaniels or House.

Again. A Morey/Rivers issue.
