This what happens when you give guaranteed contracts. there should only be 1 or 2 year guaranteeds and the team decides if they want to continue the contract after that or terminate if you dont keep up the work. That will fix all the thieving coasting and lazy players as well as the washouts. Imagine if you went to work and they told you they gonna give you 300k a yr for 4 years no matter what you do, and you realize even if you only work 1 hour a day and browse youtube all day and sleep at your desk and play games they cant fire you and still have to give you 300k each year for next 4 years 😂 Thats what nba players be doin
Thank you for explaining how Tobi got his max in Philly, a lot of Sixers fans dont even know because they heard JImmy Butler say "Tobias Harris over ME?????", when in reality it was Brett Brown and Ben Simmons over Jimmy and Elton Brand couldnt just let BOTH Jimmy and Tobias walk after trading depth for both of them.
Debatable honestly. Both play with no heart and aggression. One passes up open dunks. The other pump fakes on open 3s and shoots dumb contested fadeaways.
My 76ers choosing Tobias over Jimmy is possibly worse than OKC choosing Ibaka over Harden. Especially when Embiid hinted that he wasn’t with moving Jimmy Butler away.
Tobias Harris is the embodiment of a player being “barely mediocre”. The only guarantee within a Tobias contract is a guarantee of being stuck in NBA purgatory for the duration of the deal.
This is basically everybody in the NBA nowadays. Players who aren't even stars are getting paid more than elite superstars from 20 years ago. A lot more.
Modern NBA players soft, and everyone gets paid so the truly great guys are right next to the bums financially. I'm all for athletes getting paid but some of these guys are overpaid to a point of insanity
@@ADUSNthe thing is now that the incentive is there, those roles that are now filled with average players will be taken by better and better players as time goes on and younger players come in to the league. That’s why the league is always growing is terms of overall talent, back in the 80s, you only had so many guys who could “do it all”, now half the league can drop 30 on any given night, you see it all regular season, role player going off for a 36 pt game. And the contracts haven’t even been this high for this long, with the kind of money involved now, it’s not just a sport anymore, you’re gonna have fathers training their sons from age 5 and on with one goal of becoming a pro athlete in a specific sport, because the earning potential is higher than that of doctors, dentists, and lawyers
@@MrBubblecakeback in the 80’s you only had so many guys who could do it all. Now half the league can drop 30 on any given night…” nah. The scoring easier is more indicative of the state of the game, and the rule changes, and not with overall talent. Even players of today have said that fundamentals have been eliminated from the game. If post all star and the playoffs should’ve taught fans… defensive physicality, and enforcing rules, makes scoring much more difficult. Even the elite players aren’t scoring with the ease they did in the regular season. In the 80’s the talent was more condensed, less teams. Many NBA teams had comfortable 10 man rotations. Role players were often former stars, or designated 6th men who on any given night would be the best player on the court. The 80’s had some of the best 6th men and bench players in the history of the league. It was also a GROWN man’s league. The best players stayed in school, minimum 3 years. Occasionally you would have a talented sophomore (Isiah Thomas) would enter the draft. The narrative that the 90’s was watered down, Dan be debunked easily with a) the depth and the quality of players on NBA rosters B) the influx of foreign players, while it wouldn’t be as dramatic, there were very good, elite foreign players who entered the league c) Straight from HS to the NBA and the rise of the one and done player. The influx of talent in the NBA in the 90’s was insane. Fans who falsely suggest the league was watered down due to expansion, certainly didn’t understand the depth of talent on rosters in the 80’s. Shaq, Penny, Chris Webber, the 96’ draft Iverson, Kobe, you had Duncan, KG, Dirk, that’s just some of the top guys who actually changed the game. C.Webb, Dirk, KG became the modern prototype for versatile bigs who could do everything on the court. This modern era is a young league, much easier to score, offensively leaning. Something that the commissioner, Adam Silver has stated “the rules were changed to allow more offense, to allow smaller players, (Steph Curry) the ability to show their skills. The league after completely banning the hand check. Then ADDED rules ~ the gather step, freedom of movement. Those two rules, have made it quite easy to score. All the 450 guys who are in the league can play. Ever hear of the White Mamba ? Yeah … a “bum” to fans but at one point he was still one of the best in the world, and he had his moments. My point is, the role players aren’t better. The rules allow for easier shots, without much resistance. Also, the league made an emphasis on allowing offensive players to initiate contact on offense, along with the gather step and lack of carry, traveling calls, these guys can score points at will~ faster pace, less defense, easier shots = role players dropping 30 on any given night. 75% of the NBA viewing audience is outside of the NBA, This is according to the commissioner. Some of the top players in the NBA now, Luka, Jokic, Wemby, they aren’t from the states. They get better teaching and often have elite size for their positions, and have team oriented skills and are very coachable… Father’s training their sons from 5 years old (you mean like Emoni Bates dad) because their is incentive due to money. Not to mention, all the former players who have sons, they already have a leg up…. NBA pedigree. Genetics. When it’s all said and done it’s only 450 players in the NBA (getting the big money) it’s even less spots available per year for new players…. The league has roughly a 12% influx of new players every year. The odds of a child becoming an NBA player is far lower than becoming a professional in any of the areas you named. and it’s specialized… I mean the average height in the NBA is 6’6.5 Genetics play a role. Generally speaking, throughout the history of the NBA, the shorter you are, the better your skills had to be. FTR the average height of NBA players have only increased by 1/3 of an inch since the 1960’s. Translation ~ it’s always been difficult to make the league. We’ve b seen a man train 3 of his sons since the age of 3 (Lavar Ball) Got two of them to the league. Lavar Ball is 6’9 His wife is 6’1 and a former D-1 athlete. Have your son be an engineer, or a doctor, lol. It’s easier, and we need more. Unless you are blessed with athleticism, and height, you’re already starting at a deficit.
At the time, I thought him and Middleton were the most overpaid players in the league. Only difference is, Middleton actually balled out in the playoffs and had some big nights which ultimately led to them winning the championship in 21. He held it down when they needed him. Unlike Harris who always disappeared in big moments, especially in the playoffs.
As a Sixers fan, I've watched many many games... Watching him was one of the most frustrating things I've ever seen as a fan. He was a tumor and the main reason we've been anchored down and never had real flexibility to get embiid a solid cast.
@doriangray2020 His personality works in Philly, plus embid actually likes him but the sixers we’re expecting a bigger upside from Harris that just never happened.
@@SuperFang1 first of all that was 2020…weird and strange time…even LaBrick and the lakers made the finals that year. Second….butler as not the best player in that series…herro was just as good.
I’m not lying. Out of EVERYTHING Philly has done. The fucked up drafting , letting butler walk, harden debacle, literally EVERYTHING, Tobias Harris inflated contract was the worst. 0 points in 29 minutes, on a max contract…. Idk how they thot signing him for that much wud ever worked out
I never understood why they paid him. He is not a very agile dude and is kinda flat footed. Never really saw the dog in him either throughout his career. Just good enough and can knockdown an open shot here and there. Good bless the brother though for the pay days.
The fact that he received a max contract is diabolical from any front office. He’s a good solid NBA player, above average but he’s not elite nor is he a big game player, but he should be making 15-20m per season at best… That’s it, overpaid but that’s not his problem, just look at duncan robinson, Bradley Beal etc Also it’s 250m not 211, it was 211 not including THIS season played.
He's just good enough. Solid is a perfect word for it. Dont know when, if at all he will decline or surpass this ranking. He probably stays just good enough to be in the league and get a contract. Dont know if he can be a main contributor though
right place, right time. some people become free agents when their market is biggest and are able to continue to cash in. harrison barnes is another example of this. if there are no marquis free agents available it becomes a bidding war for a players' services. sometimes teams overpay because they have no choice. they have a need and have the salary that they must spend anyways.
As a Knicks fan, I'm hoping his playoff no show gets him on the squad for 2 years 25 millionish. He got that big contract, in part, because he's a versatile player who fits on any team. Also, his playoff performance has been overblown. Blaming the 3rd guy when he's playing with 2 guys who can get 50 is silly. Oubre was hooping. During Tobias' time in Philly, it's been Embiid who has always been trash in the playoffs compared to the regular season.
@@LL-zm9go I know he averaged 16 and 8 in 6 playoff appearances for the 76ers. I know he shoots better from 2, 3, and the free throw line than Embiid in the playoffs. I know he gives effort on defense and doesn't turn the ball over. I know you are a toxic fanbase that ALWAYS blames someone other than the real reason you can't get out the second round. You jumped on Ben. Harden. Now it's Tobias. All the while Embiid gets a pass for being dog poop in the playoffs. Every. Single. Year. Lol, only guy to ever get 8 turnovers in an elimination game and point to a teammate turning down a layup with 3 and a half minutes left in the game as the reason they lost. Tragic. We'd welcome that brother Tobias with open arms. Oubre too. Maybe they want to play for a team whose best playet isn't a choker and a psychopath.
@@Michael_Page 0 pts in 29 minutes 0 for 2 from the floor 4 rebounds 3 ast game 6. Perkins summed it up best they sent him to Chick-fil-A to get the food and he brought back straws and napkins
@@marcusbell-dixon4733 one game. You have this kind of energy for Embiid for failing year after year with talented teammates? Embiid's playoff numbers are do do.
You made absolutely NO case that TH ‘finessed’ anyone. His agent sure negotiated a hell of a contract for him. But Philly signed him, no one forced them to do so.
Right, it didn’t happen accidentally Tobias scored productively and efficiently as a Clipper. If you can go out and get 18ppg on 45% 40% then you can also “finesse” an NBA team
Tobias isn't bad if your main guy playing at the 2 or 3 is hurt. He'd be a decent addition to anyone's bench at best. I've been saying he was the most overpaid player in the NBA since 2021-2022 season & it's taken everyone till now to realize this...
Please consider making a video which examining whether a player would be able to legally create a sports agency, sign himself to that agency, and use this to have a lower tax obligation.
The 61st highest salary in the NBA is Jordan Clarkson at $23.4M. With 30 teams, then that's the best 3rd option player in the league by salary alone. So that's only 9 seasons at that salary to reach $211M. This is the new normal. For example, 24 year old Anferenee Simons already makes $25.6M.
I feel bad for Sixer fans. Every season seems like it could be theirs but always ends in drama and disappointment. So with Harris and his contract gone what should Philly do to help Embiid and Maxey? Or should they find a big trade partner and trade Embiid? Yeah hes an amazing player but between injuries snd just disappointment i feel he'll end up with a Patrick Ewing career. Where he's one of the best but never wins a ring staying where he is. I dont see them trading him but id have it as an option. Get two or three solid contributers and a couple picks to help build around Maxey possibly.
Man this video really reminded me that Harris is the most over payed average nba player ever. I had literally no idea or memory of him being on that Magic team😂😂I remember all those other good young players but not him. Since I’m a Celtics fan, I also love that he got Philli of all teams to pay him lol
Ehhh I think this is an unfair assessment 19-20pts a game is nothing to sniff at. Let's not get crazy taking this last game as a stain on his career. Certain coaches know how to utilize him like doc rivers. I think he has some compatability issues with embiid bc he isn't a catch and shiit guy he is a rhythm guy. Maxey does well bc he is great in the pick and roll. When embiid got hurt Tobias numbers increase and he plays very well. I think that sit in the corner and wait for the ball to come isn't a role for him. I mean say what you want but he is a solid team guy just in the wrong situation of playstyle.
Whichever team is looking at signing Tobias Harris would get more out of $100 Million by simply flushing it down the toilet on a livestream, than they will out of Tobias Harris. There’s never been anyone more suited to be sent to the Shanghai Sharks.
All i can say sixers and piston are two teams are crazy giving this guy a lot of money who dont show up in play off times 0 points in game 6 vs sixers as the phili said fuck tobias harris .
This stuff happens because a max contract exists. Obviously not all max players are the same, but they are paid the same. Inevitably, there must be people who just barely earn a max contract. Dumb people expect them to play like LeBron since they are paid the same
I'm just glad the Sixers got rid of him. Two closeout games this year and last. Zero points in 42 minutes played last year. 29 minutes this year. He scored the same amount of points as me except he picked up a game check north of 200K. I don't see any GM giving him a max deal.
Imagine being hardly capable of doing your current job, and yet getting paid as if you’re one of the top 15 people in your industry. Not only that, but being so delusional, that you actually believe that’s what you’re worth, and hold out accepting a job until you’re offered a contract that reflects that. Lmao. Unbelievable
I mean he’s averaged 16 ppg in the playoffs for his career, which is relatively in line with his regular season numbers. Harden is a different breed of dropping off in terms of playoff production imo
Everytime he got traded to another team , he drastically improved . Everytime he got all star caliber points , got a paycheck. Everywhere he plays in the playoffs , he didn't improve and gets blamed. That's how a soft Carmelo Anthony looks.
I followed Harris' career on the Clippers. His performance skyrocketed the year of his contract ending. He couldn't defend and the common denominator was money related when it came to his performance. He could have easily been a secondary All-Star. To say he wasn't with averaging 20, shooting 50% and 39%, is undercutting his statistical performance. He's a complete dud in the playoffs, which is predominantly why he is forgotten about. He doesn't show up when needed. He does what he wants. To be frank, he's only here for the money. The media really hyped him up to be something he's not. Send him back to Orlando lol
I don't think you guys understand why he was paid that money. When he was with the clippers my man's were scoring numbers once he got traded to the 76ers they believed in him because of his time with the clippers therefore they gave him that contract.
It depends on what he wants now. He's been paid and criticized. Does he want that to continue? Or does he want a fair amount of money and a chance to really compete even if it's a lesser role?
@@jpizel1070 Would have never recieved as much recognition and Credit if he werent on the warriors. Hed have no accolades at all, if u call being the dirtiest player of all time than ya hes a good defender.
@@jpizel1070 he was a glorified role player and is a complete goon. if he was on any other team (unless he played with Lebron) almost nobody would know who he is.

This what happens when you give guaranteed contracts. there should only be 1 or 2 year guaranteeds and the team decides if they want to continue the contract after that or terminate if you dont keep up the work.

@@LL-zm9go I know he averaged 16 and 8 in 6 playoff appearances for the 76ers. I know he shoots better from 2, 3, and the free throw line than Embiid in the playoffs. I know he gives effort on defense and doesn't turn the ball over.
I know you are a toxic fanbase that ALWAYS blames someone other than the real reason you can't get out the second round. You jumped on Ben. Harden. Now it's Tobias. All the while Embiid gets a pass for being dog poop in the playoffs. Every. Single. Year.
Lol, only guy to ever get 8 turnovers in an elimination game and point to a teammate turning down a layup with 3 and a half minutes left in the game as the reason they lost. Tragic.
We'd welcome that brother Tobias with open arms. Oubre too. Maybe they want to play for a team whose best playet isn't a choker and a psychopath.
@@Michael_Page 0 pts in 29 minutes 0 for 2 from the floor 4 rebounds 3 ast game 6. Perkins summed it up best they sent him to Chick-fil-A to get the food and he brought back straws and napkins
@@marcusbell-dixon4733 one game. You have this kind of energy for Embiid for failing year after year with talented teammates? Embiid's playoff numbers are do do.
@@Michael_Page OK we'll take OG and your team can have Harris. Sounds like a fair trade right?
You made absolutely NO case that TH ‘finessed’ anyone. His agent sure negotiated a hell of a contract for him. But Philly signed him, no one forced them to do so.
Right, it didn’t happen accidentally Tobias scored productively and efficiently as a Clipper. If you can go out and get 18ppg on 45% 40% then you can also “finesse” an NBA team
Tobias isn't bad if your main guy playing at the 2 or 3 is hurt. He'd be a decent addition to anyone's bench at best. I've been saying he was the most overpaid player in the NBA since 2021-2022 season & it's taken everyone till now to realize this...
Please consider making a video which examining whether a player would be able to legally create a sports agency, sign himself to that agency, and use this to have a lower tax obligation.
The 61st highest salary in the NBA is Jordan Clarkson at $23.4M. With 30 teams, then that's the best 3rd option player in the league by salary alone. So that's only 9 seasons at that salary to reach $211M. This is the new normal. For example, 24 year old Anferenee Simons already makes $25.6M.
Is that Mike Bibby on the Knicks?
I feel bad for Sixer fans. Every season seems like it could be theirs but always ends in drama and disappointment.
So with Harris and his contract gone what should Philly do to help Embiid and Maxey? Or should they find a big trade partner and trade Embiid? Yeah hes an amazing player but between injuries snd just disappointment i feel he'll end up with a Patrick Ewing career. Where he's one of the best but never wins a ring staying where he is.
I dont see them trading him but id have it as an option. Get two or three solid contributers and a couple picks to help build around Maxey possibly.
Remember when Tobias dad said the Sixers was using him wrong!!!’
You never get what you're worth. You get what you have the leverage to negotiate.
That Kirk Cousins comment is exactly why im done with the 2020's.
Man this video really reminded me that Harris is the most over payed average nba player ever. I had literally no idea or memory of him being on that Magic team😂😂I remember all those other good young players but not him. Since I’m a Celtics fan, I also love that he got Philli of all teams to pay him lol
Good for him
$17.5 million per season for a quality player in the NBA isn't crazy.
Emphasis on the word "Quality"
@@jpizel1070 Yup ..And he is definitely a quality player as he's shown throughout his career.
I saw his last game and could not believe his stat line. Even if you aren't trying do you put up stats like that. Guess I'm mistaken.
Tobias Harris, Ben Simmons, Bradley Beal
Ehhh I think this is an unfair assessment 19-20pts a game is nothing to sniff at. Let's not get crazy taking this last game as a stain on his career. Certain coaches know how to utilize him like doc rivers. I think he has some compatability issues with embiid bc he isn't a catch and shiit guy he is a rhythm guy. Maxey does well bc he is great in the pick and roll. When embiid got hurt Tobias numbers increase and he plays very well. I think that sit in the corner and wait for the ball to come isn't a role for him. I mean say what you want but he is a solid team guy just in the wrong situation of playstyle.
Whichever team is looking at signing Tobias Harris would get more out of $100
Million by simply flushing it down the toilet on a livestream, than they will out of Tobias Harris. There’s never been anyone more suited to be sent to the Shanghai Sharks.
All i can say sixers and piston are two teams are crazy giving this guy a lot of money who dont show up in play off times 0 points in game 6 vs sixers as the phili said fuck tobias harris .
Otto Porter also finessed the league.
Before I watched the full video I liked it for the Gangstarr sample
A man of taste I see
He just showed up to work and did just enough.
It’s makes no sense why this dude is paid like an all star.
This stuff happens because a max contract exists. Obviously not all max players are the same, but they are paid the same. Inevitably, there must be people who just barely earn a max contract. Dumb people expect them to play like LeBron since they are paid the same
I'm just glad the Sixers got rid of him. Two closeout games this year and last. Zero points in 42 minutes played last year. 29 minutes this year. He scored the same amount of points as me except he picked up a game check north of 200K. I don't see any GM giving him a max deal.
Damn I never knew J Cole finessed the NBA like this
This is too hard to watch as a Sixers fan. One of the many mistakes under this ownership group. 🤢
Imagine being hardly capable of doing your current job, and yet getting paid as if you’re one of the top 15 people in your industry. Not only that, but being so delusional, that you actually believe that’s what you’re worth, and hold out accepting a job until you’re offered a contract that reflects that. Lmao. Unbelievable
novak d-jokavic 💀💀
I’m glad someone pointed that out! 😂
Yeah NBA teams got fleeced! All those huge contracts for someone doing mostly cardio workout on the court!😂
He spazzed in Orlando
Tobias Harris to the Knicks, good look we take the 12 15 points
6th man with a max contract
Surprised you didnt go into more detail about how he is right there with james harden as a HARDCORE playoff choker
I mean he’s averaged 16 ppg in the playoffs for his career, which is relatively in line with his regular season numbers.
Harden is a different breed of dropping off in terms of playoff production imo
why would pistons get rid of jeramy grant then be interested in harris
But.. but he shot 3s better than jimmy buckets.
Everytime he got traded to another team , he drastically improved .
Everytime he got all star caliber points , got a paycheck.
Everywhere he plays in the playoffs , he didn't improve and gets blamed.
That's how a soft Carmelo Anthony looks.
I followed Harris' career on the Clippers. His performance skyrocketed the year of his contract ending.
He couldn't defend and the common denominator was money related when it came to his performance.
He could have easily been a secondary All-Star. To say he wasn't with averaging 20, shooting 50% and 39%, is undercutting his statistical performance.
He's a complete dud in the playoffs, which is predominantly why he is forgotten about. He doesn't show up when needed. He does what he wants. To be frank, he's only here for the money. The media really hyped him up to be something he's not. Send him back to Orlando lol
i wouldn't call 17.6 mil a year bad for what he brings.
I laughed when Philly gave him a max
I woud still rather have Tobias on my team than Kobe.
Send him to the suns. Knicks or Celtics. Or even better golden state. Or if you really want to max his potential. Pacers or OKC
Call him what you want that man got paid
Tobias is the player version of Doc Rivers haha......mediocre at best and keeps getting chances and big deals for nothing haha!
I actually have a video on my channel about all of the blown leads by doc rivers led teams. Be sure to check it out!
dude is the reverse nerlens noel lmao
I don't think you guys understand why he was paid that money. When he was with the clippers my man's were scoring numbers once he got traded to the 76ers they believed in him because of his time with the clippers therefore they gave him that contract.
Nobody over paying for him again….teams don’t wanna get into that second or third apron…especially for a guy that’s solid but can’t move the needle
It depends on what he wants now. He's been paid and criticized. Does he want that to continue? Or does he want a fair amount of money and a chance to really compete even if it's a lesser role?
Kudos to him , they paid 2 play tru pimpin
His agent is HIM.
good for him
Bulls will probably sign him
Timing timing sheesh
Goose Egg Harris
"TOBIAS HARRIS OVER ME?! TOBIAS HARRIS OVER ME?!!!"
Tobias is just like every other nba player. Eventually time will work against you. You won't win.
Draymond was able to finesse the nba because of steph and the warriors
Draymond was a great passer and defender on his prime and has won some accolades. No comparisons here.
@@jpizel1070 Would have never recieved as much recognition and Credit if he werent on the warriors. Hed have no accolades at all, if u call being the dirtiest player of all time than ya hes a good defender.
@@jpizel1070 he was a glorified role player and is a complete goon. if he was on any other team (unless he played with Lebron) almost nobody would know who he is.
