James Harden posted 26 points (7-for-13 FGs), nine rebounds, 10 assists, one steal, six 3-pointers and seven turnovers in the Sixers win over Orlando.
He fell one rebound short of recording his fifth triple-double of the season, but he still had a spectacular game.
Harden has averaged 21.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, 11.0 assists, 1.2 steals and 2.9 threes per game this season.
By comparison, Ben Simmons, who was traded almost a year ago for Harden, didn’t play again because of knee soreness as the Nets got their doors blown off by the Celts.
Simmons is averaging 7.4 points per game for the Nets.
So, Stephen A. Smith, who won the trade?
