Tobias Harris to 76ers fans: Casual Sixers fans, they'll trade me for a Crumbl Cookie. But I’m 6’9, shoot 40 % from three and defend the best players

Tobias has a black agent and black lawyer and his black father is heavily involved in his business affairs and yall criticize him huh
And he is hurting....no stealing from the citizens of Philadelphia, a 40% Black city, because he is ASS
Philly fans better live thru the Eagles cuz their mlb and NBA teams ain't about to win it all anytime soon
Eagles wont either but Hey Winning The NFC East in Dominating Fashion is a Chip all its own anyway
This. The Sixers shortcomings fall squarely on Embiid then Simmons/Harden in that order. You give any other top level/mvp player of the last decade that Sixers squad in that eastern conference and they at the very least make the finals if not out right win a few rings.
Money brings expectations and at point and time Harris was being paid like a max player, yet had no impact compared to dudes who make a lot less than he does. Just because he isn’t a household name doesn’t mean that he doesn’t deserve blame for their shortcomings.
He just initially got the benefit of a doubt with Simmons taking all the blame those years.
It's cause the Sixers signed him thinking he was ascending, when he fact he had already hit his ceiling. so they paid $35 million/year for someone they thought would be a complementary star, when in fact they got a very good role player who was worth $25 million/year.
Hating him like that for getting paid an extra $10 million too much is goofy though.

The third option player on any championship caliber team is going to garner a decent salary. You gotta pay what other teams are willing to take away from you. He is slightly overpaid but his salary hasn’t hindered them from getting talent and his play isn’t the reason they haven’t won.
He averages 17/8/3 shooting 86/47/35 in the playoffs. Plenty of teams are going to pay $30 million for that.
Again you put any other mvp caliber big man (Jokic, Giannis, and AD) on that Sixers squad these last few years and they at least make the finals in that east if not outright win a ring.
Those numbers and splits mean nothing in the grand scheme of things as they make no impact whatsoever. We've seen many third options over the years put up more memorable performances than he has. I bet you couldn't even tell me a memorable Harris play or performance because you can't. He can put 25 points on 60% shooting, yet you wouldn’t even realize that he’s out on the floor because it’s quiet numbers.
Look at Jrue and Gordon/MPJ over the past few years who were 3rd options for their current teams. They made more of an impact than someone like Harris has and they make less than he does.

New nba in a nutshell.. a nikka like Tobias Harris can be straight trash, overpaid but can fall back and say he shot good from 3 so he doesnt deserve criticism. Foh
Don’t forget he got that money because he and Simmons ran Butler out. Harris team specifically said they were leaving if Butler came back. Sixers gave up a haul to get him(remember when Landry Shamet was a thing lol) so they pretty much had no choice. Another genius move by Brand. None of this would have been as issue had they drafted Tatum instead of another PG when you already had Simmons
