Daily News | If James Harden really wants “basketball freedom,” the Sixers should let him find it elsewhere
Wow, he feels like he is making a sacrifice to play here.Wow, he actually thinks that he can score like he used to.No. 3 is why the Sixers might be better off without him.
I’ve said this from the beginning, and I still believe it. The Sixers’ best chance at competing for a title next season is to bring back Harden alongside Embiid and give them a coach who can do a better job of using the two stars’ strengths as building blocks of team offense. Add another veteran to the mix using the mid-level exception, maybe swap Tobias Harris’s expiring contract for a complementary piece or two, and hope that Tyrese Maxey takes another step forward.
Harden can do it. His handle, his vision, his passing, his ability to think two steps ahead — all of them are off the charts. He really could be the perfect point guard. What he can’t be is put into a situation where you are relying on his finishing ability.
