Trade Harden for Lamarcus Aldridge, Millsap, or a PF/C. :ehh: But, if Harden does go through free agency, I think Utah would be a great place for him and would fit right in with there system.

he is not a max player....i look at him as a taller ben gordon,good scorer thats it

he's the most efficient 2 guard that has graced the league in a while, overrated as fukk but hes better then BG. plus play making full sized 2guards are hard to come by he's lucky; it's almost like being a center in the league.

It was zero chance he would get an extension before the season started as a restricted free agent

He'll get the max from someone if it ain't OKC. But Presti's right in not giving him the max right away; that franchise can't afford 3 max deals.

They can afford it they don't Want to pay it :umad: they been getting by on having kd, Russ,ibaka and harden on cheap deals. At some point you have to pay your players when they perform . It's hard to just find another j terry , harden etc in the draft so I'll stay a title contender with a young core rather than be cheap and let him go . This core can be together for years and almost won a title already .

In theory. We're dealing with reality. There's far more than 8-10 max contracts out there.

lets deal with reality
no team with james harden as their best player
is making the playoffs

dat pretty much tells you right there dat him gettin a max is retarded

hes a solid solid role player dat benefits from playing with 2 top 10 players in da league

i like his game but come on

:comeon:
52 million for one of the 20-25 best players in the NBA is kinda low.....But then again he is not even starting and hasn't shown what he can do as the guy.

Pretty much . Not resigning him to save money is cheap ,if they think he's not worth it that's one thing but to vs like they can't afford it is Wrong . That have the attendance and they have the luxury of being successful on rookie deals . Time to pay if they want to keep Being a title contender
