I can't see the Harden working for 76ers. He hasn't made a difference anywhere, so why would Philadelphia be any different. You trade for a guy to win a championship, that has never won a championship?

Harden is a difference maker though, even if a ring has yet eluded him. OKC couldn't make the finals again after they traded him, whilst Houston was a consistent contender the entire time they had him. Harden does have a reputation for putting up empty stats, but I think Brooklyn especially has been a tough situation for him and everyone because no-one can stay healthy there, especially this season with Harden having to do both his own job and Irving's most of the time.

Philidelphia meanwhile had to shake something up because Simmons has not developed in the same way Embiid has, and has started to become injury prone on top of that. I think it's a net benefit for them in the short term which is when they actually want to be trying to win a title; losing Seth Curry hurts a lot but you have to trade something of value back, Drummond was underutilised, and Simmons hasn't played this season.

I'm really, really not a Harden fan. I don't like his antics, the way he complains and the way he chooses when to play defence.

But, he has definitely added to every team he's played for, a lot.

I think him and Embiid, if they manage their egos, could be the best (offensive) duo in the league.

Farout these injuries... Especially Simon Thomas, that's tough to swallow.

Got Duffield back in time for what would've been a key BBM clash with possibly the toughest team in the comp, but with Xinlei out too there was no point in me training game shape for it because I'm still going to lose.

Certainly not me. Still feeling down about the BBM because despite how stacked sarahs team was, I think my full strength lineup could've taken them. I'm committed to moving up to B3 tier now since my world rank will probably be high enough even if I lose the cup final. But I've always said my team isn't quite going to match up against the B3 monsters.

Yeah, worst timing for injury for you.

And me. There was a chance that I could've taken out the cup and the league this season. But the injury has cost me one and might cost me both. That's the kind of bad luck I'm referring to.

With HCA you should still be the hot favourite in the league. I was always aiming for just the cup this season because I needed the extra prize money to cover my salaries, so I was willing to concede the league for that purpose.
