Sources say Joel Embiid today asked 76ers co-star Ben Simmons the question: Why do you want a trade? Simmons responded that he isn’t feeling mentally himself and needs time to get right. Details:
Happy we didn’t get Harden. Maxey will be a STAR and Simmons is no where NEAR his peak. Wasn’t worth it tbh.
I know he’s getting hate but I think @dmorey took a dub here.
James Harden being denied a trade from Houston is the first time he has been told “no” from the organization;
“I was talking to a former Rockets staffer...And he said, “Yeah he’s going to act up, he’s never heard no before.”
(via @espn_macmahon on “The Hoop Collective”)
The Sixers are 3-5 since Ben Simmons got injured — including losses to Cavs and Warriors.
They are 10-24 on the road this season, only the Hawks have more road losses.
Zhaire Smith (ankle) is available tonight vs. Golden State
Joel Embiid (hand) still listed as questionable. He will meet with his hand specialist before the game.
Man I don’t even know where to start😭😭 I started playing ball because of KOBE after watching the 2010 finals. I had never watched ball before that and that finals was the turning point of my life. I WANTED TO BE LIKE KOBE. I’m so FREAKING SAD right now!!!!
RIP LEGEND
