Lol they not giving all this up for Harden

Jrue got 3 firsts and the Lakers traded all their picks plus Zo/BI for AD

I want at least Brown; Hayward, and that Memphis pick :ld:

Give me that, then trade Westbrook to CHA for expirings, move Gordon and Tucker to Philly for Horford (shorter contract and pick/s).

Rookie pg/Devonte Graham
Daniel House
Brown/Batum
Hayward/Ariza
Horford/Cody Zeller

W/ this lineup, Hayward would fukk around and look like an All Star, given that he would be one of the only shot creators on the roster. Houston could then flip Hayward to GSW to get Wiggins(salary dump) and an extra pick or two.

If HOU misses out on their 2021 pick protection, they'll have their pick in '22 and be in the running for Emoni Bates. :ld:

People are assuming that KD is gonna be the 30ppg KD... honestly it’s over for that, at least on a consistent basis. He won’t be the player of old, and if Harden comes to Brooklyn KD would be the third option and would be 70% of the player he was before.

why do you say it’s over? He tore the Achilles on his non-jumping foot, similar to Dominique Wilkins

If Houston does this, they will regret it. Like the roster or not, this is still a 55-60 win team. Russ, Harden, Ariza, House, Tuck, Eg. Don't even take scraps for Westbrook. Give it 2 years to build a team around Harden. Worst case happens you gave it every chance to make it work. Now Harden is expiring, then you trade him. But you don't trade a franchise top 5 player with 3 years left on their deal.

honestly if I'm the Nets I'd trade Kyrie for Harden or try to make it into a 3 way trade....If the rumor that Kyrie doesn't want to play with Harden is true.
they literally cant play together. unless this is 2K that shyt will not work. needs to be a 3way

if im KD, do i really want to play with harden either?

1. Houston is capped out and have little to no assets for the next 2-4 years, there not able to sign or trade for another to star to play w/ James.

2. Harden is 31, not everyone is Bron, most stars tend to fall off at Garden's age or a few years after(Wade, Aldridge, CP3, Melo, Kobe, Pierce, etc). By the time Houston has cap space, Harden will likely not be a top 5-10 player, blow the bytch up and rebuild w/ picks/young assets.

3. The Rockets '21 pick is protected from 1-4 in a great draft, even if they don't keep their pick, they still have their pick in the '22 draft where Emoni Bates will be.

Harden rarely gets injured. With his skill set i think he can be effective in his late thirties.

Rockets FO need to hire you breh :wow: is it really worth it to be a "middle of the pack team"? or try to be the next warriors and build your team though the draft and have other stars wanting to come to your team after you build and develop a winning culture.

but that’s the only reason y’all were ever in play.

you think all this sixers talk came from Al hortford and Josh Richardson? :russ: ben Simmons is what everybody was referring to in a “young star”. Without him I don’t see how y’all have much advantage over Brooklyn.


76ers can't trade for victor oladipo none the less some james harden if they aren't including Ben....The only reason for the harden rumors is because Ben was supposed to be going to houston...I think something like Ben/someone for Harden/PJ.
