Before today's trade deadline, the Nets struck a deal with the 76ers, replacing Harden and Paul Millsap with Ben Simmons, Curry Jr., Andre Drummond and two first-round picks. Many people think it's a win-win deal, but Lakers celebrity Magic Johnson is clearly not optimistic about the Nets.
The Magic wrote on Twitter: "Because Carey hasn't been vaccinated and Ben Simmons hasn't played all season, the Nets won't be a championship contender this season, but they certainly can next season." ”
"The 76ers got James Harden and made them championship contenders."
"The three best teams in the East are the Bucks, the 76ers and the Heat."
"The two best teams in the West are of course the Suns and warriors, and after them, I also like the Lone Rangers and the Grizzlies, and if Murray returns, the Nuggets are one."
