76ers GM Daryl Morey on the improvements made by other Eastern Conference teams Folks have speculated on the improvements of our East competitors I don't see it personally There weren't any needle movers in my opinion Zubac is now on Indiana Harden is in Cleveland Vucevic is in Boston

Darly Morey We like our chances in the East We feel like we're in the mix with the top teams there obviously we gotta prove that on the court Folks have speculated on the improvements of our East competitors I don't see it There weren't any needle-movers in my opinion

Daryl Morey The big move was with Jared Because we're playing well we were trying to upgrade the team and add to the team now We understand that we were looking to add now and nothing materialized

Daryl Morey The Jared McCain deal we felt that we see Jared as someone who is more likely to help a team in the future We thought that the draft picks we got will help us more in the future and could of helped us this deadline

Windhorst People I'm talking to believe there is real momentum for this Darius Garland is getting in his head that he's gonna be a Clipper James Harden is getting in his head that he's gonna be a Cav Hes going to get taken care of

Lebron praises the Cavs trades at the deadline adding Harden Keon Ellis and Schroeder

Windhorst on why Cleveland is doing the Harden deal The key here is that the Cavs are moving away from believing in the Core 4 and I think the genesis of this is because they're worried that Donovan is not going to re-sign this summer
