I would be very sad to lose maxey. Feels like selling our soul. Plus why would kd want to be back with harden?

Why would we think thats probable?

I mean, Michael Jordan is good. But I’d rather see if Hersey Hawkins gets 2 levels better.

You have a Top 10 to 15 player of all time and best wing scorer ever available but you want to hope Maxey takes another step. 

And where is that step? Is ceiling is Donovan Mitchell, an undersized two guard, and last time I checked those guys don't lead teams to rings.

You do realize he is the best wing scorer the league has ever had.

Hersey Hawkins?  Good one.  Are you just just completely ignoring their injury history the last few years?  Harden and Durant, who will be 32 and 34 to start the season, are going to be less injury prone as they get older?  I forgot, Embiid is always available so we are good there.  🙄  They have a 2 year window and one of those years, all 3 have to available for all the playoffs.

Do you want a ring or not? 

Sixers are not the Grizzlies or Warriors where they are built for the present and future. This team is built to win right now and window is closing.

Hyperbole for the joke. 
 

Make it Clyde Drexler, who isn’t as good as KD, and it’s still insane.

It was pretty stupid.

No, I am the last guy who wants to win a championship.

Hersey Hawkins made an all-star team In 1991. Lemme know when Maxey does. 
 

I love Maxey. But for KD? Giannis? Luka? I will drive him to the airport. 

Made me lol

Yeah I forgot Maxey is 25 and hasn't gotten better in the "5 years" he has been in the league.

No thanks to Durant.

 

I'd rather watch Tobias and Maxey exit in the second round of the playoffs every year for the next 5 years until Joel retires. Just cant get enough of that fiery Maxey

1991 was Hawkins’ 3rd year. Do you even watch the Sixers?

If I am putting money on Maxey getting 2 levels better vs Embiid, Harden and Durant all being healthy together in the next 1-2 years, I am putting my money on the first one.  If one of those guys get hurt, we are done.  No money to have roll players or bench guys to help out and make much of a difference.

So you were for trading Maxey in a package to get Dame.  But not Durant?

I would not trade Maxey for most guys now.  We have no 1st round picks for a million years.  If you could guarantee me that all 3 would be healthy for 2 years, I am in.  I know Durant gives us a much better chance than Maxey.  I have no faith in Embiid, Durant and Harden ALL being healthy for a playoff run.

 

You hope they throw in Joe Harris and Steph

Also, give some context buddy.  It was before Dame was hurt and before we had Harden.  Nice try though.
