In the three games with James Harden in the fold, the Philadelphia 76ers have clearly leveled up from fringe contender only in the conversation due to possessing an MVP frontrunner, to a true contender powered by a pair of MVP-caliber stars and a worthy young apprentice. The offense is ripping through the opposition (admittedly just Minnesota and the Knicks twice thus far), scoring 133, 125, and 123 points. The bench unit that had often been an Achilles heel now has at least one star on the court at all times to keep things afloat (the backup center situation is still far from ideal).
