The Nets' deal with the Philadelphia 76ers can be said to be full of intrigue and wonderful encounters, Harden finally came to the 76ers as he wished, but from this transaction, we can see that the Nets' pants are not left, you know. The Nets used Le Vere plus Allen, plus four first-round picks and four picks to exchange for a Simmons.
Does Simmons have such value? No, he's a guard player who doesn't even have the ability to shoot, I don't know why a lot of fans are so bullish on Simmons, if you've watched him play against Embiid before, or watched the previous regular season, you'll find that Simmons' role on the court is even worse than the Nets' current Mills... A guard who does not shoot, the hard injury on the court is very large, although he is young now, shooting can be cultivated, but this season after entering the league for so many years, is Simmons in the sixth season of entering the league, has he shown his shooting skills? Although the data on the draft report is very good, although Simmons has a strong ability to assist in the defense and single defense ability, but the defender player who cannot shoot is a drag bottle on the court.
The 76ers side is definitely making a lot of money, Simmons has played six seasons on the 76ers side, and has not shown any signs of becoming a superstar again, and their team general manager has a very good relationship with Harden, and he has been thinking about getting Harden to the team since Harden left the Rockets. This time he only used a Simmons, and Curry Jr., plus the draft signing to get Harden at the peak, I personally think this deal, the 76ers are definitely making a lot of money.
According to the news of the Us media, the Nets and the 76ers of this deal, in fact, was not optimistic about the media at the beginning, although Irving said not to play home, but the combination between him and Harden did not have much contradiction, the contradiction is that when Hardendon joked that he hoped that Irving could get the vaccine, Owen began to be a demon, and began to suggest to the management whether to trade Harden? In order to seek better players, coupled with the Nets after Durant's injury, suffered a large wave of record decline, Harden's confidence was directly broken! Therefore, there were rumors in the free market that Harden wanted to be traded, but Harden then made it clear to the Management of the Nets that he would not leave the Nets, and he also promised his good big brother Durant that he would win a championship with him in the Nets.
This is why after the rumors of Harden's trading came out, Harden took the initiative to come forward to clarify the rumor that he would not be traded, but in this process, Harden also left a hand, he secretly contacted the management of Philadelphia, he hoped that he could be traded, and the Philadelphia side must come up with trading chips as soon as possible! So some time ago, all the rumors that flowed out of the free market are true, Harden really wants to leave, Harden also wants to stay, he is making two-handed preparations, this time in the transaction link, Harden is taking on the role of two-faced people, he hopes to leave the Nets, and hopes to have a good relationship with his big brother Durant.
The time node came to the Game when the Nets lost miserably to the Kings, and after the game, Harden contacted the general manager and Tsai Chongxin, who told the two main leaders that he hoped to leave the team, it was the team that did not create a championship-winning atmosphere for him, and Irving's current situation is also a lot of holes for the Nets, especially the Nets' current group of players, who have no hope of competing for the championship, and the 76ers next door already have embiid, a top superstar.
The Nets have retained Harden and hope he can stay here, they believe that when Durant recovers his health, especially after the All-Star Game, the Nets will usher in a wave of records to take off, but Harden obviously can't wait, he hopes to hurry up before the trade deadline! The most important thing is that Irving's attitude is very obvious, he hopes that the management will quickly send Harden away, Harden wants to leave, Irving wants Harden to leave quickly, which also prompts the Nets to complete this deal with Philadelphia.
