Harden joins the 76ers, the Nets get Simmons, the Nets and the 76ers who will be better?

Original/Oxygen is a metro

On Feb. 11, the trade deadline, there were a lot of trades, the most important of which was: the Nets traded Harden to the 76ers for Simmons. The Nets got Curry Jr. and Drummond Jr. and two draft picks at the same time, and the 76ers got Both Harden and Millsap in addition to Harden. The deal is a win-win from a realistic point of view. Because Harden and Simmons, the Nets and the 76ers are not happy. If they are not replaced, the team simply cannot change.

Harden is particularly unhappy with the Nets, although he has Durant, the league's first superstar who is stronger than himself, and Irving, who can score at key moments, but the cohesion is really not enough, there is no leader at all. The Nets do not have a leader, Tsai Chongxin is not good at directly interfering with the team, Nash has too soft personality and the head coach himself has no right to speak when getting along with super giants, Durant who leads the team by scoring is not the leader, he is sprayed by Green in the Warriors, Irving is not a leader, and Harden himself is not a leader.

Simmons' conflict with the 76ers and Embiid is even worse. Embiid and Simmons have long been incompatible, and embiid was willing to sacrifice for the 76ers before, but Simmons never promoted himself, but made trouble. So after Simmons was sent away, Embiid even sent a picture of attending the enemy's funeral on social media to vent his emotions.

So on a realistic level, this deal is a win-win. Harden's supergiant, Simmons is also a stable All-Star bench and DPOY candidate. So, what about from the analysis of strength? It seems that the Nets have to lose a lot. After all, the superstar replaced the All-Star bench (although Harden himself is an All-Star bench, but obviously the All-Star bench and the All-Star bench are not the same thing). However, Harden's black history and the Nets' chips in addition to Simmons may make the Nets not lose in strength.

The 76ers, led by Embiid, are not in the top four in the East, but the gap is not large. Harden is average with the Nets, but that's also related to the lineup and mentality. Harden's professionalism is indeed not as good as the super average, when he is not happy with the ball, he does not want to score, so that his bad habits of rubbing will be amplified, so Harden in the Nets and Rockets final stages are negative games, even 4 points out.

Embiid is also a good leader, with a very strong competitive spirit, not as strong as Durant, but may be more compatible with Harden. The Nets' Big Three claim to be the strongest offensive in history, but overlapping positions have led to an imbalance in their lineup. The 76ers' combination of inner and outer line giants is an upgraded version of the previous one. Harden is generally defensive, but the 76ers even without Simmons have the league's top outside defense lineup, which can save it. Embiid's aggressiveness will give Harden more room to play. And Harden and Embiid's ability to create fouls, even in the playoffs, may benefit them.

It's just that Harden and Embiid have both had a series lead reversed, neither of them has reached the Finals, and their playoff ceiling is still questioned. When the Nets' big three team was founded, it was predicted that at least one championship, and even supporters began to divide the FMVP, but it turned out that there were variables in the game in which people participated. Harden has partnered with Howard, Paul, Westbrook and Durant and other super giants at the peak of the supergiants have had a black history of life and death battles and not playing at key moments, can Embiid qualitatively change Harden? This is a topic to be proven in the follow-up of the 76ers.

The Nets have lost a super giant, but the strength is not a loss. As mentioned earlier, Harden is indeed incompatible with Durant and Irving because of his position, which is on the agenda inside the Nets, believing that Harden is too dominant. In addition, the Nets believe that Harden will definitely run away after this season, so the trade is a strategic success. In terms of strength, Harden's defense is average, and Simmons has a very strong defense that can make up for the Nets' weakest link. Simmons is also good at organizing, and while not as good as Harden, he is also at the top point guard level. Curry Jr. is also a top scorer, and Drummond is average, but it also adds an interior line to the Nets that they lack. Unfortunately, Irving is a part-time player, which will make it very difficult for the Nets to win the championship, at least after they change the lineup, the maximum strength is not as good as in the Big Three era.
