Yup won't just give him away, the way it should be. With this situation though I don't think Harden would just sit out / not show up to camp, especially given his relationship with Morey. Based on the reporting (up until this point) it seems like he would prefer to be moved, but isn't ruling out or at least opposed to a possible return

Yeah it sounds like he'd play if he doesn't get traded.

Pat Bev had recently said on his podcast before signing with Philly that he was interested in going back to Houston to play with Harden 🤔

Did you hear the additional context of it with the video clip?

Windy goes “the Sixers want you to know that you can’t have Tyrese Maxey. Prime Michael Jordan is available? don’t call. 25 year old Lebron James is available? lose our number. Giannis antetokounmpo says “I want to be a Sixer”, if Tyrese Maxey is the ask, keep walking.” I have been assured Tyrese Maxey WILL NOT BE traded”

Gotta be some exaggeration on his end but they are that confident and high on him moving forward damn

They gotta have something for when Embiid demands to get the hell outta there

Daryl Morey hopes to convince James Harden to stay with the Sixers next season, per @wojespn:

- Sixers would love to keep Harden next season. Morey believes his relationship with Harden could help change his current thoughts on returning.

- Still talking to teams about a potential Harden trade, mainly the Clippers.

- This process could play out all the way until training camp begins in September.

He does seem to actually believe in Tobias. Frequently supports him

@wojespn: "Philadelphia 76ers restricted free agent F Paul Reed Jr., has signed a three-year, $23M offer sheet with the Utah Jazz, his agent Ron Shade of Octagon Basketball tells ESPN. Sixers have until Sunday at 11:59 PM ET to match sheet and retain Reed.

One of the terms of the offer sheet provides a unique twist: The first season of the contract is fully guaranteed and the two following become guaranteed for $15.7 million if Reed’s team advances to conference semi-finals in the 2023-24 season, sources said.

If Sixers match the sheet, they will exceed the $165M luxury tax threshold and incur an additional $14M in luxury tax penalties. Reed would have veto power on a trade for a year if he remains with Sixers."

I guess this is why Mo Bamba came here and Montrezl Harrell is back..
