    This has LOF written all over it.

    We have 2 top 10 players on our team. That makes us the Best or second Best team in the LEAGUE.

    No.

    You don't trade Drew Brees for Teddy Bridgewater either.

    ClutchFans is getting painful.....The negativity is overwhelming. I am a realistic person and I point out deficiencies in Rockets players but in a constructive way and I ALWAYS support the team at the end of the day. Now I know this isnt everyone so dont take it personally but CF is full of some of the most ungrateful, Pessimistic, and overall negative people (dickheads) I have ever seen, it's really depressing. Again there is a difference between realism and blind hate.

    Uhhh.... The HOPE for an organization drafting in the top 5 is the get a player that might ONE DAY turn into James Harden or something close to James Harden.

    Why the hell would you trade the current version of James Harden, in his prime, locked in for 5 years minimum, for the CHANCE at getting a player that MIGHT turn into a James Harden caliber players on day????

    So.... I'm gonna go out there and say no James Harden will NEVER be traded for a lottery pick unless he is leaving in free agency, forcing a trade, or the team has been massively under-performing, and the front office wants to shake up the direction of the team (aka tank), and use the trade to shuffle the deck and reload the entire roster.

    Screw it, yes I would. Jabari Parker loves to play the game, he's humble, and looks like he'll be a great NBA player.

    I think you are one of the main culprits who constantly yell about Hardens nightlife but can you please back up any story involving him in a Houston night/strip club within the past two years that didnt involve the All-Star game? (Cause you know, he is a proven All-Star. Not just a prospect.) Harden averaged 26 points last year and was a main reason we got Dwight. By all reports he has multiple injuries but goes out night after night and gives us 20 points. But you are right. He doesnt care.

    True. Brees is like the CP3 to Bron (Manning) and KD (AP) lol.

    James isn't playing like a top 10 player as of late, but he certainly will shortly.

    It is inevitable. His shooting percentages will return to the mean, and then everyone will be eating their words.

    Playoffs makes stars.
