    I guess now we know why Morey hasn't pulled the trigger on a trade yet!

    So...did Morey have Harden at the bar feeding him drinks? Clever ploy to get him on the cheap.

    do we have space to sign the guy?

    i assume he still gets his cash from the Nuggets the way Smith did with the Pistons...soooo...maybe that less of a consideration for him??

    interesting development for sure.

    Even if this is true, um sure someone, maybe LA would pick him up off waivers. The rockets would have to hope no one uses their waiver claim

    What other teams would be desperate to scoop him up? Mavs, Nets, Knicks?

    Why wouldn't Denver just trade him? Yeah, his stock is low right now but at least get a 2nd round pick.

    Do we go after him? We could probably get him for cheap but I wonder if Morey and McHale would want to put up with his antics.

    Or better yet, just trade him for nothing so you don't have to pay his azz.

    Seems like he would be BAD influence on Harden...

    Harden strikes me as a guy that will go with the flow and avoid conflict which means he'll be led astray.

    I think the only chance for us to get him is if the nuggets BUY him out instead of outright waiving him
