The team isn’t that far removed from the whole Ben Simmons debacle, and now we’re going through something similar with Harden. Is there a point where we have to start questioning if the problem is the franchise? Twice isn’t a lot, but so far the common denominator is the 76ers. Do you think there is something going on behind the scenes that we don’t know about, or did Philadelphia just sign two divas in a row?
There are countless problems with the Sixers FO, but no, I don’t think this is one of them.
Ben Simmons got upset that he got exposed, and rather than take his lumps all summer and then come back against ATL and drop like 15 points and be aggressive (which by the way if he had done, everyone would have instantly forgave him), he got petty about it.
Harden has a history of doing this.
