    I guess it's official? Well, as long as we get the proper package, otherwise he can sit out another year of his prime.

    In the meantime, go Rockets!

    I really don't see how we aren't a contender. Why wouldn't he wait to see how Wall and Cousins start the year?

    I'm open to trading him to get the best possible assets and picks available regardless of the team Harden is sent to. Couldn't care less about him after he leaves.

    Whatever is best for the Rockets. If it conflicts with Harden's goals, that sucks for Harden but I couldn't care less.

    Morey the puppet master. He told Harden to use the Nets as leverage untill his value hits rock bottom so he can sweep in and get him cheap.
    Morey with the big F you to Tillman

    Why would any team he wants to go to be a contender after we take their best stars and change?

    Smh he told you “he wants out” keep him here and other players will be watching. You think that’s attractive to future free agents?

    If Morey isn’t willing to send Simmons or Embiid then Morey, with all due respect, can go **** himself.

    Honestly man at this point screw James. This city embraced you with open arms and defended you throughout your whole tenure. Now you're acting like a child demanding trades, holding out, and attending strip clubs during the pandemic. You don't wanna be here? GTFO

    Well if Morey thinks cheap is Ben Simmons and picks, then I'm fine. But there is nothing less that Morey can offer that should be accepted by the Rockets.

    The only team where he can be a contender with half their assets going a way for Harden would be the Nets. Possibly the Sixers.

    And only Ben Simmons and Embid intrigue me.

    let’s just get this done with Philly and end all this

    HOU and Philly are natural trade partners

    If you trade Harden you better get super stars back. Hardens considered best player in the NBA or atleast a top 3.

    What do u mean by cheap? If the deal doesn’t include Simmons or Embiid, it won’t happen.
