James Harden Traded For Ben Simmons

February 10, 2022

After much discussion, it actually happened.

Former Brooklyn Net James Harden has been traded to the Philadelphia 76ers for the disgruntled Ben Simmons.

The Nets also receive guard Seth Curry, center Andre Drummond, a 2022 first-round pick, and a 2027 protected first-round pick.

Power forward Paul Milsap goes back to the Sixers.

Who do you think won the trade and who's now the favorite in the East?
