In the ever-dramatic world of the NBA, Tobias Harris has found himself at the center of some fan-fueled controversy. The former Philadelphia 76ers forward recently took to social media to address comments made by 76ers fans about Paul George's performance.

The Incident

Paul George, who joined the 76ers last season, revealed on his podcast that a fan had shouted at him during a traffic jam, "We coulda kept Tobias if you gon' do this s---." This comment came after George's struggles on the court, where he averaged 16.2 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 4.3 assists in 41 games.

Harris' Response

Harris didn't take the comment lying down. He pointed out that after the Eagles' Super Bowl parade on Valentine's Day, the 76ers won only four of their next 27 games. He humorously tweeted, "After the parade...4-27 ⏰🏀➡️😂" with a link to the stats.

The Aftermath

Harris, who spent six seasons with the 76ers before moving to the Detroit Pistons, had a solid season with his new team, helping them make their first playoff appearance since the 2018-19 season. Meanwhile, the 76ers finished with a disappointing 24-58 record.

Fan Reactions

Fans have been quick to weigh in on the exchange, with many appreciating Harris' wit and the light-hearted nature of the banter. Paul George himself clarified on his podcast, "Shoutout [Tobias Harris]. It ain't no joke at TB."

Conclusion

This incident highlights the unique relationship between NBA players and their fans, where even in moments of struggle, there's room for humor and camaraderie. As the offseason progresses, it will be interesting to see how both Harris and George perform in the upcoming season.
