Simmons anti vaxxer lol I’m dead 😂😂

With this trade, I might actually think that KD and Kyrie are at fault here because apparently Harden was pissed with Kyrie sitting out and not getting vaxxed while carrying so much of the load. And... I think the Nets only good asset really is seth curry who's a beast. But Ben Simmons to me is an offensive liability who isn't physical enough to be a great rim protector which will be made more apparent in the playoffs. And this might be the end for Harden lmao if he can't turn it around. Embiid needs a perimeter guy but Harden's style limits the way they can play which makes the fit not bad but not that good. I just don't get why Harden doesn't go vegan like Chris Paul

I see the Sabonis trade as equivalent to the Bogut trade for the Warriors. They cleared an overstock of guards and added the big man they badly needed. I expect them to make the playoffs, barely. I agree that Tristan Thompson is the guy to get, but it’s not my money.

Crazy how Harden quit on his team 1 year ago and got rewarded with a trade. Simmons quit on his team 6 months ago and Harden quit on his team #2 a month ago....and both are rewarded with trade (that are nice for them personally). This sit out and get rewarded ain't a great look league-wide. Seems like Dubs, Grizz, PHX...are home grown, rather than merry-go round of quitter pickups.

Harden as a Trojan horse is a great analogy. Curry’s a great pick-up. He’s undervalued as a guy who contributes to actual wins.

I think we as warriors fans need to remind ourselfs of a few things 1. The league is incredibly deep and talented this year so even if we're still no2 in the west doesn't mean we're way better than no 3,4 etc especially without our second best player. What I'm trying to say is our team might look mediocre just because there isn't that big of a gap with dray out 2. Everybody among the contenders needs a reliable backup big and that means the price for one is incredibly high so probably wasn't worth it at the trade deadline. 3. I'm 100% sure if a guy like Lopez becomes available as a buy-out and he wants to come the ownership will make it happen. I understand their Standpoint of not wanting to pay for a player that makes us 1% better especially with tax stuff. I think slater eluded that if it's a good upgrade they'll do it. 4. I know and agree beli should be the first to cut. As much as I wanted him to do well, he hasn't been good at all for a long time on both sides. Now the second candidate should be Iggy. I don't believe he'll play enough games in the playoffs to warrant a rosterspot with all the injuries that keep him out for too often. At some point a player needs to get in game shape and not sure he can do that. Cut him and sign him as a consultant or to the training staff so he can still help the young guys. Of course only if they get more than one helpful buy-out guys

Idc for Harden too much but I'm taking him over Simmons anyday of the wk... I guy who sits out because his feelings are hurt, we'll see what happens when KD at some pints curses his high yellow ass out lol... Also Simmons is the same guy that "Allegedly" purposely tried to come in contact with a team masseuse that thpught to have covid to miss game 7?? Story might be satire, but one thing I've learn about this league is where is smoke there's fire... Lastly, I think Embiid is fully capable of being a great p&r/pick & pop partner, dribble hand offs with him and harden could be deadly too... I don't like that the sixers gave up Curry but he can be inconsistent at times, Drummond is a goofball out there at times and Simmons is scared to be aggressive with some reports ciming out that he doesn't want to play small ball center with the Nets... The guy is talented but he's soft Alc and you know it... Anywho Go Dubs and always appreciate the content with the jokes sprinkled in there...
