On February 9, Beijing time, before the trade deadline for the NBA's 2021-22 season, rumors about the nets' star Harden's trade intensified. According to multiple reports: The trade between Harden and Simmons is being discussed by the Nets and the 76ers, and the next two events may imply that there will be a blockbuster deal.
First: 76ers rookie Springer changed his personal Twitter ID label, changing his jersey number from the current no. 11 to no. 0, which sparked the reverie of fans. Number 11 is Springer's current jersey number, and the Nets' Number 11 happens to be Irving, which could be that Irving and Simmons are going to swap owners; or Springer is going to be sent to the Nets as a chip. (Anyway, the jersey number will not be changed for no reason)
Second: Embiid, the core emperor of the 76ers, updated social media and posted 5 mysterious tweets in a row, which also triggered the reverie of fans. Specifics include: "It's time to start", "It's time for proportions", "It's time to respond", "HALA Madrid", "This is crazy"!
According to previous reports, Philadelphia local journalist Jaon Dumas said: The 76ers are looking forward to reaching a deal with the Nets on the Harden and Simmons swaps before the trade deadline. Brian Windhorst said on the show: "No matter what news you hear from the Nets or the 76ers, the fact is that the deal negotiations between the two sides are ongoing, and in addition to getting Simmons, the Nets may also get players like Seth Curry or Sable from the 76ers." ”
Harden's desire to fight and state now shows that he is dissatisfied with the Nets, Durant has been absent from the team for a long time due to injury, Irving is still a part-time player, Harden is desperately trying to get no respect, instead of this, Harden thinks it is better to find another way out, maybe there is a chance to compete for the championship, and Embiid is also looking forward to cooperation with Harden; Simmons' contradiction with the 76ers has been continuing, and there is no sign of being resolved, so this may be the most suitable deal.
Although the Nets stated that there will be no lineup changes before the trade deadline, and the previous 76ers also said that Sebel and Cess curry are not for sale, but the NBA is a business league, the Nets are currently 9 consecutive losses, the 76ers are in good shape to see the hope of winning the championship, coupled with the two signs I mentioned earlier, not to mention that there will really be a blockbuster deal.
