32 points + 37 points, 180 million pseudo-giants exploded! O'Neill is right, the emperor needs you to win the championship
The 76ers are a team that has been crushed by injuries, Embiid, Covington, Morris, Batum, Melton are all absent from the game, Embiid is absent from the 76ers, the 76ers have a 4-10 record, and now the 76ers have been bullied, Harris stepped up to carry the team forward, and he worked so hard to fight for a big contract of hundreds of millions.
With $180 million in five years, Harris has been questioned
Harris' career was traded to the Magic after the Bucks' first two seasons, and in the summer of 2015, Harris signed a four-year, $64 million contract extension with the Magic.
Harris was then traded to the Pistons for 2 seasons and went to the Clippers in a trade involving Griffin, when the Clippers' godfather West named Harris, who had already seen Harris's potential.
Harris has excelled with the Clippers, who in the summer of 2018 rejected a four-year, $80 million contract offered by the Clippers, who traded Harris to the 76ers before a mid-2019 trade to prevent asset loss.
At that time, the 76ers had the big three of Butler, Simmons, and Embiid, and they also reached the Eastern Conference Finals that year, and in the summer of 2019, the 76ers gave up Butler for various reasons, and Harris got a five-year, $180 million super-large contract due to a blessing in disguise.
According to Butler, the 76ers did not give him a maximum salary of 190 million for 5 years, but they gave Harris a 5-year contract of 180 million US dollars, so in the away game of the Heat against the 76ers, Butler shouted wildly after winning the game, you give Harris 180 million US dollars, but you are unwilling to give me 190 million US dollars.
Harris is the biggest beneficiary of the 76ers giving up Butler, if the 76ers renew Butler's contract, he will not be able to get a big contract of 180 million for 5 years, so it seems that Harris really has a money life.
Harris has performed well during his five-year, $180 million contract, and he can play consistent numbers but should not be paid an annual salary of $180 million over five years, and he is also one of the most questioned players. Harris has one year left on his contract and is worth $39.27 million, so it's reasonable for him to make a difference in the contract year.
32 points + 37 points, 180 million pseudo-giants exploded
The 76ers are currently 30-19 and in fifth place in the East, and with Embiid's injury, the 76ers' ranking will drop significantly, and the 76ers can only count on Maxey and Harris to play well to make the team win.
Embiid is the league's leading scorer this season, Maxey has risen to become an All-Star, and Harris is a consistent three-man player, with Embiid praising Harris as an overlooked player who has contributed immensely to the team.
This season, Harris played in 45 games, averaging 17.9 points + 6 rebounds + 3.3 assists in 33.9 minutes per game, ranking 36th in the league in two-point shooting of 51.6%, 15th in the league in offensive efficiency of 121.3, and 31st in the league in net efficiency of 8.7.
Harris was also able to put up pretty numbers, scoring 32 points + 10 rebounds against the Hawks on January 11 and 37 points + 7 rebounds against the Kings on January 13. According to statistics from the NBA's official website, this is the first time in Harris's career that he has scored 30+ in two consecutive games.
It is worth mentioning that Harris has two consecutive outbursts of games with the same background, that is, the emperor was exempted due to injury, and Harris got more opportunities and played a more important tactical position. In a sense, is it Harris really not good or is Harris delayed by the Emperor?
O'Neill was right, the Emperor needed him for the crown
Embiid praised Harris' performance during the injury period, and he bluntly said: Harris can do a lot of things, but few people talk about him, which is very unfair.
NBA celebrity O'Neal also said on his podcast: Harris has to take on more, he can't be a ghost, he has to output 15-20 points steadily and become the team's No. 3 man. If he can do that, he can help the Empire bring a championship to Philadelphia.
That's right, Philadelphia needs you, and the Emperor needs you! A healthy Emperor can indeed play the dominance of "the Emperor does not give birth", and the 21-year-old Maxey has also grown into an All-Star player, but if the 76ers want to make a difference, they must make good use of the Harris card, instead of letting him take the salary of a giant and do blue-collar coolies, otherwise it will only lose both.
This year, the contracts of Morris, Harris, Batum and others expire and the 76ers will free up salary space, and if the 76ers only keep Embiid and Maxey, the team will have 50 million salary space, so the 76ers can theoretically get a superstar through a trade.
Whether Harris can stay with the 76ers is also uncertain, but for Harris, even if the 76ers don't give him a contract, he is still a sweetheart, and the old Pistons are eyeing Harris. I have to say that since the 76ers have chosen to believe in the process, they must cherish the people in front of them, so as not to regret it after they have lost it! Fans and friends, what do you think about this? Come and leave me a comment to discuss.
