    an thats how they threw down his contract....ole i want to be in a better place but never played a game ass ? ..

    fukk em

    Regardless of all that happened, okafor was 19 when he did that. How long are we gonna hold a mistake a kid at 19 made over his head? Let that ? go already. I dont mean you specifically btw, im talking all Sixers fans and other people who keep bringing this up. Dude was an inexperienced 19 year old, they tend to do dumb ? .

    Ehh - IDGAF, about his age and I’m not upset with how the cards fell.

    It’s the ? entitlement that he represents



    ? had an opportunity to be a multimillionaire and build a legacy for his family ...

    ? after a few years of HARD work he could have even wrote his ticket to where he wanted to play to satisfy his ego and the expectations he had for himself.

    Like bruh, just shut the ? Up and go to work.

    We’ll see what he does with his second chance... Hopefully he learned a lesson.

    He came in the best shape of his life this season and wanted to contribute this year. Instead he was benched majority of the time while Simmons and Embiid came back with the hype of a new team that he wasn't part of. He hasn't said anything this season and even Joell backed him up dude has been as professional as you can be despite the circumstances. What are you saying??

    “Circumstances” being what - him not getting tick this year?

    That’s not a “circumstance”... That’s professional sports.

    Them ? just flat out better than he is. He’s not a part of their core anymore.

    And Professionalism and being “in shape” doesn’t guarantee you anything.

    We talking about the NBA. Those are table stakes.




    I can’t speak on dude this year. By What I can say is that his ROOKIE year, his Attitude was trash.

    In multi-million dollar professions you don’t always get second chances. I can’t say that I have any sympathy for him.

    So yall really not gonna give a 19 year old a pass? Yall the type to put athletes on pedestals and ? . They just human.

    Dude came in and did stupid ? at 19, and this year at 22 even though he got no tick and wasnt even given a chance he kept it real professional. If that dont show progress and growth, what does?

    All im saying is im willing to forgive what someone did at a young ass age. I know I personally wouldnt wanna be defined by what I did at 19.

    Why every time I watch Harden play, I think to myself............................How the ? did the defender get called for a foul and Harden is literally elbowing him in the ribs? How did he get the worst of the contact but he fouled Harden?
