Holy shit that’s a lot of money:

I called this from a mile away last week. The only detail I missed was Lil Baby was going to be with him. Harden had Houston as his return game circled the minute he got a timetable on his injury. The Sixers had three days between games and that’s all the time he needed to make his rounds through every strip club in Houston catching up with old friends. Did you see that stack of money? That’s enough money to flood Houston. That’s enough money to buy out Doc Rivers’ contract:

You know you’re rich when you have to withdraw from the Houston Federal Reserve which has the second largest currency vault IN THE FUCKING COUNTRY!

I don’t even think Sixers fans are going to be upset about this either. One, because it’s James Harden and he’s known for partying after losses – even as a Sixer. Two, because I think everyone is kind of over this team right now. There’s just zero juice. No one is invested and watching games ais a chore at this point. Dumping the basketball into Joel Embiid in the post or Harden dribbling out the shot clock just to chuck a contested three isn’t fun basketball. Especially when we’ve seen the bench squad move the ball and everyone (besides PJ Tucker) could score. Instead, we’re back to the offense being run through two guys and the occasional Tobias Harris iso. We’ve all seen this movie before. The team starts off slow, they rope us back in midway or towards the end of the season, and then they lose games when they matter and we’re left wondering if they’ll ever make it past the second round.


Now don’t get me wrong, Tyrese Maxey and Harden have missed significant time. Tyrese, Embiid, and Harden have only played six games together. But it’s obvious something needs to change and if it wasn’t for the bench Sixers run and the injuries, Doc Rivers might be already out of our lives.
