The Sixers’ decision of whether or not to bring back James Harden shouldn’t be viewed in a vacuum.
Rather, it should be viewed in economic terms.
It is a matter of opportunity cost.
The alternatives are not good enough to forgo Harden’s services:

Since the days immediately after their elimination by the Boston Celtics, those familiar with the Sixers’ thinking have felt that they’ve projected a confidence about re-signing James Harden.
Ultimately, bringing Harden back is the right move:

So I guess Cam Whitmore is part of the James Harden trade – 10:30 PM

Love the culture fit of Cam Whitmore in Houston. James Harden, Kevin Porter Jr., Jalen Green, and Kenyon Martin Jr., about to be terrific veteran leaders for the 18-year-old. Harden can show him the best spots in the city, the others can show him how to run NBA Xs and Os. – 10:17 PM

Collected some rumors on Tobias Harris trade market, James Harden latest.
Rumors out of Portland and Houston Draft intel which could impact Lillard market, etc.
One stop slopping.

Is KD right when he says Harden, Kyrie and Westbrook are 3 of the most influential players? Rather build around Ohtani or Judge? & more! Guests: @adaniels33 @EphraimSalaam @martinweiss

More on this storyline

There’s a chance that another team could look to get into the mix to land the former MVP, but at this point Philly’s biggest competition for James Harden’s services comes in the form of the Houston Rockets. There are a lot of eyes on the Rockets heading into the draft and free agency as owner Tilman Fertitta looks to put his stamp on the franchise. Fertitta is said to be heavily focused on restoring winning culture in Houston, and the hiring of head coach Ime Udoka was seen as a step in that direction. -via CBSSports.com / June 21, 2023
Philadelphia has a free-agent quartet outside of Harden to manage this offseason: Paul Reed, Jalen McDaniels, Georges Niang, and Shake Milton. Milton is the least likely of those players to return next season, sources say, as the veteran guard looks for a potential opportunity for more minutes (this could change if James Harden were to walk in free agency). -via Philly Voice / June 20, 2023
