    God forbid James Harden has a season ending injury, hypothetically of course, would this team still have the talent to make the playoffs in the West? Obviously last year, without James Harden, most people would assume we would be a lottery team. Has the roster now changed enough for people change their opinion on how much this team would succeed without Harden? Does this make Harden a less 'valuable' player? You know with our luck, anything can happen but are we really that deep now?

    Lawson/Beverley/Terry
    Brewer/Thornton/McDaniels
    Ariza/McDaniels/Dekker
    Dmo/Jones/Harell
    Dwight/Capela/Hayes

    Not too shabby of a playoff team imo, first round exit in the West im assuming but still promising. Love the way this team is constructed, even given worst case scenario, this team will always be in the running for a championship. Good times for Houston Sports rn

    Yeah, can't be doing stuff like crossing streets. Always a chance to get hit by a car. Gotta be prepared you know.

    Losing Harden would definitely hurt but i think they could still pull it together and make the playoffs. Maybe bottom two seeds.
    They have built a pretty good defensive team and without Harden they would have to rely on that heavily.

    Hypothetically, with Ty running the offense, we could make it as one of the lower seeds.

    Realistically, you should be banned.
