Rasheed Wallace rips 76ers $180 million man Tobias Harris for playoff duds: Step that st the fk up

Forget the referees and their missed calls.Former NBA star and Philadelphia native Rasheed Wallace had someone else in the crosshairs while trying to explain why the 76ers are in a 2-0 series hole against the Knicks entering Thursday’s Game 3: $180 million man Tobias Harris.“I can’t really blame Buddy [Hield], though.He just got here.
