Harden while still good, is not the same guy he was when he won MVP's with houston. and even then they never won a championship.

So, not sure why a team that had one of the worst records last year and is rebuilding wants to pay $50million to a player who is no longer what he once was and over the hill. is it to sell tickets? Why not continue the rebuild?

Also, not sure how Houston is more appealing to Harden than Philly...who while they lost to the celtics still were a #3 seed in the east. Unless at this point he just wants money, to be the man and to go to strip clubs in Houston.

I'll pass on Nick Nurse. The last time an angry white guy got the gig (Pitino), things didn't work out so well.

Nurse is def a better coach than Joe, no doubt.

Why is Nurse available? I'm pretty sure he lost the locker room.

Are we ok if our new coach loses the locker room as long as we get 1 title?  I mean probably right?

I wouldn’t bet on Nurse catching lightning in a bottle like he did that one year with a prime Kawhi Leonard. Let’s not pretend like he’s had a ton of success outside of one season.

Nurse lost the locker room because of the front office.

He spent 2 and a half years without a proper center on his roster (since M Gasol left) which hamstrung their interior defense & rebounding.

Add in that Nurse hasn't had a 2nd PG to backup VanVleet for 2 years since Lowry left for the Heat and you see how their front office screwed over their offense. VanVleet was the only guy who could run the team and he was being run into the ground because he had no live backup PG on the roster.

They had another year where they had 4-5 good players and then nothing. No decent bench players. In addition to having no center and I can't remember if Lowry was still there or not. The whole thing has been poop-show.

When you are continually putting ill-fitting lineups on the floor and getting bad results, guys lose hope / morale and stop putting in as much effort. It is darn near impossible to keep them going. He kept them going for the best part of 3 years despite the complete and utter ineptitude of TOR's front office.

Nurse did a great job there. He was screwed over by his front office and sent out to pasture so the FO could scapegoat someone else instead of taking the blame they deserved to take.

I'm not even saying it has to be Nurse.  I am am just asking if we are good with 1 title if the coach turns crap after that.

Anyone who thinks Embiid deserved the MVP over Jokic is nuts. Jokic just makes everyone around him better.
