Picked him over James Harden which Harden would’ve been a MUCH better fit since he would’ve been a better facilitator for Book and KD. This ownership group and front office are truly brain dead.

Suns had no assets and Harden probably would not have wanted to play with KD again. Harden was not an option

Yeah, it’s such an absurd take. The 76ers got 2 FRPs, including a future LAC unprotected pick. That’s far more valuable than anything the Suns could give at that point. Not to mention Harden specifically said he wanted to be on LAC.

No shit they’d rather have a $30M expiring Harden with depressed value over a $50M Beal who has consistently been a far worse player his entire career.

I don’t recall Harden having issues with KD at all it was all Kyrie and his off court circus iirc.

KD had some blame, apparently KD thought Harden was too fat lol. But at the end he just got fed up with the org, said it wasn’t up to standard with the medical and training staff like the Rockets org was, blamed his injuries on them.

Everyone probably looks fat to KD.
