Yeah it is also a declining contract where they front loaded it and if they waive him in the final year, he does not carry a dead cap hit. It was a now move for how much money they had + financial flexibility for JDub and Chet's rookie contact extensions in a few years.

Yeah he fits our needs and people aren’t realizing that the thunder are literally asking him to move to Oklahoma after living in New York so of course we have to pay him more. If we were gonna give him the same amount as other teams the city of Oklahoma would be one of the least interests for hart. I think at least.

PG’s contract is gonna be terrible in a year or two. He’s age 34, normally the exact age all-stars decline massively in performance. Sixers still are cleared by the Knicks and Celtics, even when healthy.
@obi3924
@obi3924 3 күн бұрын
I think when Healthy they can probably compete against those teams. Embiid could potentially be a mismatch for the Celtics just like Jokic is, and he’s improved as a playmaker over the last couple seasons. They’re in a win now situation. Joel Embiid is an injury prone, 30 year old center. Centers historically fall off a cliff when they get a big injury around his age. He probably has a couple seasons max before he completely falls off. They’re paying Paul George for the now, not the fourth year.

@@obi3924 that’s fair and understandable, but given the direction the NBA has been going the past couple of seasons and with the new CBA, the Sixers probably would’ve been wiser to use their gobs of cap space on elite role players, as opposed to spending most of it on a very oft injured star who is likely past his prime after this season. The big 3 model is dead and the Knicks and Celtics have both realized that and still have WAY more depth to work with and have a likely more reliable roster to work with. Embiid and/or PG will suffer a 10+ game injury at some point this season

I completely disagree with your Tobias Harris take. How are they “solidifying their mediocrity” with a 2 year deal? And Tobias Harris is a decently good player in the regular season. His stats as a top 2-3 option on a contender reflect that. Him being a playoff choker doesn’t matter to the pistons because they’re not going to reach the playoffs next year anyway, and again, he’s only signed for 2 years.

"Most successful dynasty" ??? Bruh wym there are plenty of dynasties to win more than that. MJ's Bulls had two 3 peats that equals 6 titles. 6 is better than 4. The Showtime Lakers won 5 and the 2000s Spurs (99-2014) also won 5. what about the first Celtics dynasty that won like 9 or whatever? I feel like the Golden state dynasty based on success, which in my mind is winning the title, is the 5th best dynasty in NBA history. They simply did not win as many titles so they had less success. Please tell me how that makes them the most successful ever?

Harris isn't that bad. The contract looks like it was made to assist in a trade for a bigger name by or at the deadline. The new CBA doesn't allow the teams with higher payrolls to do much but Detroit can take on money and with teams on their last leg before a tear down/rebuild or restructuring with good young players that will be moved. Plus who wants to go to Detroit and play? Seriously who would take less money to play in Detroit? Nobody, and that means Detroit has to overpay.

I really do enjoy your videos but sometimes the Philly fandom comes out a little too much. PG is a best signing but Harden is a Worst? PG will be making $60 millon when he is almost 40 years old. Harden is making $35 millon when he just proved he is the more reliable and better player in the playoffs. Harden took another discount for the Clippers so they could fill out the roster, just like he did for the 76ers. I dont think you should act like Harden is an idot for leaving Philly. Morey clearly told him he would get a Max if he took a discount and then never gave it to him. Its odd to still be salty about that when MOREY caused him to want out Tobias got paid because Pistons need to spend the money or lose it. It becomes a good expiring contract next year.

I feel you glossed over a few aspects when it comes to cap space and market for these signings. For Detroit, they have to spend some money to get over the salary floor and Tobias Harris fits that purpose. It's a 2 year deal to be above the salary floor while they rebuild. Not really good or bad in any way. For PG, he's getting paid 60M at age 38, which is concerning given his long injury history the last 5 years. Philly is great on paper, but likely will never pass round 2 given how injury prone PG and Embiid are. Not the best contract to hand out. As for Hartenstein, he literally fills the big hole that OKC had and that fans wanted them to address this season and playoffs for so long. That contract is also frontloaded so they're paying Hartenstein while they have space, and he'll be off the books when Chet, Jdub, and shai get their new contracts. I'm surprised you didn't have OG Anunoby here, considering he just signed a 5/212 deal, has never made the all-star game or come close, and is very injury-prone. So he's a great injury-prone starter making all-star level money.

Tobias Harris is a good signing. They needed to exceed the cap floor so they spent their money on a vet that can teach the young guys. 2 years is nothing

Hartenstein contract will be worth it if he is first team player but if he is backup for chet then idk..maybe put both in?? 😅

I like Hartenstein for OKC. OKC is a talented team but a little soft. They needed a gritty player like Hart but I agree they overpaid. I happen to think that the James Harden contract was a massive overpay even at 35 million. Harden is not worth that. I don't think the Clippers were that keen on resigning Harden; but PG left and they could not make it work with only Kawhi who is always hurt. Lastly, Tobias Harris is just a very lucky player. He is a lesser talent who manages very good contracts. Philadelphia got suckered into a huge contract and the Pistons gave him good money because nobody else wants to play there.

Hartenstein was one of few player's to avg +85 blocks, 85 steals per game. On great REB, a lot Offensively and his mobility on D is phenomenal, along with his screen setting passing. He was well worth it and both Clippers and Knicks screwed up bad, by not making him a priority to retain. Knicks will feel that badly this season. Especially if M. Robinson gets injured again like he typically does. He's not nearly as mobile and of a passer either.. 4 to 5 mil more isn't a big overpay. You secure him and keep him from talking to other team's. Solid W. 👌 I'd rather have him than Pascal or Turner right now and I'm a Pacers fan. Great hustle player and is underrated on his Offense inside. He doesn't take nothing he can't get. Wish Pacers would have went after him and OG, or Miles Bridges. Instead of Pascal Suckem.. lol

I'm one of the few Cavaliers fans that wished we'd traded Donovan Mitchell along with Jarrett Allen. Not upset we retained Mitchell but now that he's staying we've definitely gotta get some offensive depth for Allen as Mobley plays better without him. Now that OKC picked up hartenstein they aren't gonna go after Allen which sucks because they'd be one of the teams with the best packages for Allen..

What big time free agents are really looking to go to Detroit? Pistons have to meet the salary floor so spend that money on the best option that fits the team - same situation with VanVleet and Brooks last season with Houston. Also guessing with playoff performances there wasn't a huge demand for Harris

Delusional. Harden did not “feel” slighted by the ineptitude of the 76ers front office; he was slighted by then, if you do not know by now them let me fill you in… Darly Morey lied to James Harden about giving him a max contract, but yeah keep spewing nonsense I’m sure you’re happy getting clicks and comments at the cost of your soul.

"...most successful dynasty in NBA history..."? Um, recency bias much? The '80's Lakers (5 championships out of 8 finals appearances in 10 seasons) the '90s Bulls (6 championships in 8 seasons) have a clearly greater claim on that title. Since '99, Timmy's Spurs (4 rings in 9 seasons and 5 rings and 6 finals in 16 seasons) and Kobe's Lakers (Three-peat and 5 rings and 7 finals in 11 seasons) would all like to put forth their candidacy as equal to Golden State's 4 championships and six finals in eight years. With all those dynasties, none can equal the Celtics 8 in a row and 11 championships in 13 seasons. Go even farther back, the Minneapolis Lakers won 5 out of 6 in the fifties. So no, the Warriors aren't "the most successful dynasty in NBA history". At absolute best third, probably sixth, and arguably, tied for sixth.

Harden is significantly better than PG. Harden has playmaking when his shots don't hit. PG has what when his shots don't hit? Oh that's right. Nothing. This guy is just a Harden hater. It doesn't make Harden look bad. It makes Morey and the Sixers look bad. It shows Harden left from betrayal more than money.
