Sixers just made a huge mistake. Nets just made a steal of a deal.

Say what you want about Daryl Morey, but he played this absolutely perfectly from beginning to end. Never got emotional, always stayed rational, and now the Sixers have James Harden.

Nothing will be funnier than if Embiid and Harden don’t end up being a good fit
— JWills (@itsjwills) February 10, 2022
Harden going 30 and 10 easily IMO creating for Embiid.. Brooklyn got another shooter in curry and then Ben Simmons as great defender which Brooklyn needs..We already kno the nets can score the ball. Both teams got better but will it be enough for Giannis?

James Harden and Joel Embiid is not a better duo than James Harden and Kevin Durant.

Congrats to Mr. Morey. Tough circumstance yet walked away with a tremendous talent and is still in pursuit with a legit chance to win a title. Kudos. Go @sixers !!
— Ruben Amaro, Jr. (@RAJr_20) February 10, 2022
Morey handled this Simmons situation about as good as he could have, and it paid off.
Again, Simmons never had leverage.

A lot of people owe Daryl Morey a huge apology wanting to trade Ben for some damn role players and wanted it done as soon as the season started. I told u that u don’t trade Ben for role players. Only or a star and that’s what Daryl did.

You months ago: trade Ben Simmons for anything!

Daryl Morey can’t let James Harden go
— Film Colossus (@FilmColossus) February 10, 2022
A LOT of my colleagues owe Daryl Morey a legit apology.
Y’all CRUSHED him for not trading Ben Simmons for pennies on the dollar months ago… and now he got the Harden for him. Just an absolute fantastic job by the best GM in the league.

I can promise you it's not going to sit quite right at Toyota Center that James Harden wanting out prompted Daryl Morey and Tad Brown to leave to Philly only to get Harden there a year later. It's going to be really wild if Eric Gordon and Mike D'Antoni are next.

Brooklyn annihilated Philly in this deal.
Morey’s love affair with Harden is his Achilles heel

And give Morey his credit, we all clowned him, but he got the guy he wanted.
