Should revisit in 5 more years. Why not Trae Young or Luka Doncic? Probably not getting them either. Memphis isn't a market that can get enough help around Harden. Makes less sense for them. They can get defenders though, interesting enough.
If we could attach Westbrook, Gordon and Capela's contracts for expiring's, and get mem's 2024 & 26 first, with 23 & 25 swaps, then I'd probably do it. We just got some big red flags from this team to start the season, I fear that it's likely that the rest of Harden's tenure is Houston is going to be agony with us failing to get past the second round for then next 4 years.
Tilman prolly wants a veteran star that can make the Finals or win it all for him in the next years......a rookie or sophomore is not going to cut it right now.
