Montrezl Harrell is good, but signing him means we have to talk Doc Rivers some more

The Sixers are signing Montrezl Harrell. He’s pretty good. He really is. He’s a guy Daryl Morey drafted in Houston and later traded to the Clippers in the Chris Paul deal.

He’s also a guy Doc Rivers once infamously overplayed and cost his L.A. team a possible championship in the bubble.

The point of stuff like this isn’t to suggest Harrell can’t help a team. It’s that if he can’t, his coach won’t notice or try something else.

But it’s difficult to just talk about Trez — again, a perfectly fine talent — for these low prices late in free agency.
