    There you have it



    They'll be a really good team. Surprised narrative wise that he chose a new team and not a return to what he knows.

    Now let's get the rest of FA over with.

    If he wins a ring with a 4th team... That's big. Philly has a massive drought... I think it makes sense.

    This tells me they couldn't find anyone to pay Harden the money Cleveland wink wink'd at the deadline. If he could have gotten paid elsewhere and someone is routed back to Cleveland, I think that seals it.

    Yeah, best choice from a legacy perspective. He can win a ring in every team he played for. And they have a really good shot, that's a dope team.

    May have some chemistry, fluidity issues with Joel in and out while the others are also figuring it out.

    Expected a more flashy news break. A shams post is underwhelming lol

    Glad this is over and offseason can move on. Let's see if Cleveland goes to Kuminga as advertised, still don't get why he'd go there vs here, he'll probably be a bench player

    Remember how the East keeps trading with the East? Yeah, have fun with that SLUG FEST now in the Playoffs. Hope you guys have energy to play the West in the Finals.

    Lebitch pack your bags to the east where you belong. # always looking for the easiest road by ring chasing or finding easier schedule
