    I wouldn't call myself a hater, but acquiring an elite player has been the thing he has needed to do. He has proven to be able to make the moves to build a supporting cast.

    so giving the max to a non-max worthy player is what's hot now?

    The haters must be too busy eating crow to post here, because I don't see them.

    Harden is definitely a max player. Its just that players like Lebron, Durant, CP3, Dwight are worth more than the max. I rather give Harden the max over Brook Lopez(atrocious) or Eric I can't even stay healthy and am inferior to Harden Gordon.

    We still need another all-star so hopefully one of our own guys develops into it, but the point is, I think Morey is the Picasso of roster tweaking, hopefully he'll get to do his art pretty soon.

    ...and I'm still waiting for this max player. All I see in Harden is a legitimate 3rd scoring option on a team with two better scorers.

    Think about in the last three years he has turned Rafer into Lowry, Lowry into a lotto protected pick into a piece to the Harden deal.

    Landry + parts into KMart, KMart into a piece to the Harden Deal.

    Dalembert + 14 into Lamb and Lamb into a piece to the Harden Deal.

    Jordan Hill for Dallas' Pick (Plus Fisher ;)) and Dallas' Pick into a piece to the Harden Deal.

    So in three years, Landry, Rafer, Jordan Hill, Dalembert + #14 pick for James Harden, Cole, Cook + Pieces. NICE!

    Lin - potential
    Harden - proven all star level, good d
    Parsons - 2nd year improving could be allstar
    Patterson, Jones, DMo - ton of talent and young
    Asik - looking great so far and legit size

    Machado, white, Morris, Livingston, delphino

    That team can beat some teams

    I'm not so sure about this trade.

    Harden on this team isn't anything special. I think we should have offered Orlando this deal and gotten howard. I'm not sure why we gave up so much for a top 5 SG who isn't a franchise player.
