Gotta hope thybulle can develop like Danny geeen and be a good stand in the corner 3 point shooter. However by year 3 green was already shooting low 40% and for much of the rest of his career in the high 30% or low 40%. Not sure it’s ever getting better than it is. 

He's the guy teams are going to ignore late in games in hopes that he gets the ball to shoot.

At least...he can hit a free throw......wait until Ben is on the court at the end of the game and gets fouled taking the ball out of Durant's hands.......that should go over well.

 

I hate listening to Josh Harris speak.   

 

Oof 

Bob Cooney was saying the fact that the intro presser is on game day tomorrow instead of today might be another indicator that Harden won't play tomorrow night.  Also, if he doesn't fully practice today, that's another sign of DNP for the Cs game.  

Oh well.  It should still be a fun atmosphere. 

 

Harden out until after the all-star break.  Here we go

Said that would likely be the case to begin with. Why risk tweaking the hamstring when you can give him that little bit of extra rest? Only a couple games left until the break anyway

Yep. 76ers don’t play until the 25th after the all star break. That should give Harden plenty of time.

Do any of you have the Athletic? Apparently there is a recent article about Ben complaining about playing center and that he wants to play PG.

I think it’s Lane Richardsons article. 
 

Also, apparently Nash is already telling him him not shooting is no issue. 
 

Get your popcorn ready.

Anxious to see our new toy on action but,  it's a nice move for the team to give the old man some rest while he is nursing something.  Hope it helps him stay healthy for the stretch run.

I saw that posted on Facebook a few days ago and assumed it was fake since the source listed was ballsack.

It is. Cause haven’t seen that mentioned anywhere else but ballsack and they seem to be a parody Twitter account

Yep, agreed.  Gives him extra time to heal and gel with the team over the next week or two.  No reason to push him when he hasn't even practiced/worked (much) with the team yet....best to have him as close to 100% as possible for his 76ers debut, imo.

Wish he would have shaved his beard. Fresh look for a fresh start.
