Should the 76ers or Nets trade for James Harden? A debate

We debated it.

After James Harden ripped the Houston Rockets publicly after a loss on Tuesday night and the franchise sent Harden home instead of having him practice, it’s all become clear that a trade is probably imminent.

According to a report from The Athletic, that’s true. Shams Charania and Sam Amick report two teams — the Philadelphia 76ers and Brooklyn Nets — are “finalists” for the services of the eight-time All-Star.

There are some reports on what each side could be offering, which we’ll get to. But which team should acquire Harden? We had a little debate about it at For The Win between Mike Sykes and Charles Curtis, so we put it into writing.
