James Harden laughs as Sixers destroy Clippers in Philadelphia

some philadelphia 76ers Without Joel Embiid and Paul George, they wondered how to survive without their star at the hands of the Los Angeles Clippers and in front of their fans (99-125), and even more painfully, their manager.

La Barba finished the Los Angeles team’s presentation in just 27 minutes, scoring 23 points, eight rebounds, and two assists on 4-of-10 field goals and 3-of-7 triples, mocking the Pennsylvania team just like Simmons did at the time.

Norman PowellDerrick Jones Jr. scored 18 points, Terrence Mann off the bench scored 13 points, and former PAOK Kevin Porter Jr. added 11 points as the players took a step forward.

Meanwhile, the Sixers are a team completely beset by injuries to their star players, with Trident in and out of the infirmary despite playing just six minutes on the hardwood in 16 games.
