    That trade made little sense then and only got worse as time went on. I had to check the timelines again (thanks wikipedia):

    11/2/2020 Daryl Morey named Sixers President of Basketball Operations
    11/18/2020 Daryl Morey trolled the Dallas Mavericks by promising them a solid wing defender in exchange for Seth Curry. Solid wing defender never arrived

    Brilliant that he never matched that Dallas paycheck

    Is it still funny holding onto Simmons when he got Harden? Asking for a friend

    Doesn't it seem like there will be some tampering allegations down the line with how everything went down here?

    Morey wheeled and dealed but sent his former players to places where they could succeed.

    76ers won if you ask me. The Draft picks are literally useless. This is basically Harden for Simmons. That's a steal. Simmons will be just as useless in the clutch as he was with the 76ers. He mentally wilts. Durant will make him a winner obviously. But I like what the 76ers did.

    Time will tell. Murray and Harden may leave Philly in shambles similar to the current Rox, BUT, like with us, they'll give Philly a legit shot at a ring.

    What's the big deal. It didn't work in Houston, it's not going to work in Phil.

    Such a dumb take. We were a CP3 hammy away from a ring so please. We were one of the most winningest teams in the league in Harden/Morey’s tenure with us. Winning a ring is pretty ****ing hard. This combo was ridiculously good.

    No point rehashing the past. Harden has digressed, Embid is not better than Durant/Irving now. Morey living a pipe dream.
