    Yeah, I lost all respect for this dude when he did this to us. How dense can he be to not think that Philly wouldn't want something decent in return for him since they gave up a lot to the Nets to get him. This is that millennial state of mind man. Morey has always supported this dude but all it takes is a single time he doesn't get his way, he pouts.

    When Udoka said acquiring Harden wasn't the way to go, Harden was really painted into a corner.

    "James, the Rockets don't want you."
    "WHAAAAAAT? Man, titty bar heaven and gametime hangovers, out. Well, Daryl, then I wanna go to the Clippers."
    "James, I'm not trading the league assist leader for a bunch of table scraps. I won't do it."
    "BUT I WANNA GO TO THE CLIPPERS!"
    "I'm tired of you ruining the team I'm running. You need a timeout. Go to your mansion!"

    I love PJ Tucker but he's getting paid a lot of money and playing a lot of minutes to be a motivational speaker. At this point he should get an exception from the league office to put a stool in the corner on offense, it's not like he's going to move anywhere else.

    Pretty huge failure of an off-season for James. Attempted to drive up his price by having his people throw out rumors while the Sixers were in the middle of a playoff run. Rockets didn't budge and Udoka wanted no part of him returning. He's pissed he took a pay-cut and didn't end up with a ring out of it. Sixers aren't going to max him so he feels slighted now. Now he's driving a wedge between himself and one of his biggest supporters in Morey. He seems to give zero ***** about burning bridges. Very difficult to defend any of his actions.

    Keith Pompey (Sixers beat writer) apparently can’t quote right.

    First said that Morey said Embiid needs a “tough” running mate then later corrected it to “top” running mate.



    Honestly, I feel just a little bad. (I side with Harden in this “dispute”.)

    He got screwed by Morey. Take a pay cut, (brings in ex-Rockets), we’ll pay you next year. (Next year — right now — comes) Just kidding. (“None of that is binding!” Blah blah blah)

    Now apparently no one else wants him.

    If no one want him, might as well go back ‘home’ and hook up with them boys in Phoenix. (Or ring chase wherever he thinks gives him the best shot. … Obviously under contract this final year but beyond that.)
