    He's a stud and getting a meeting and failing to land his big fish.

    Sounds like Morey minus the iPad.

    Dallas is probably being used again with Conley and Whiteside

    Not IMO. Conley at any price > Rubio, for the Rockets at least.

    Adding Conley, subtracting Dwight and minimal upgrades has the making of a mediocre team.

    Not heartbroken to hear he's not interested.

    Also reported that the team is confident with Beverley running the point and are looking for a backup. If true, SMH

    Harden will probably run point but yeah, point taken. It's time to end the Beverley starting experiment.

    Translation : We know that we already struck out with ugrades, and couldn't get value for Pat in a trade. So since we are stuck with him, we want a big season out of Pat Bev, and we need to make him feel like a million bucks.

    He is an all-star caliber point guard. Why would he want to play for a team that already has a player that handles the ball on offense.

    *referring to Mike Conley*

    Good point guards just don't want to play with harden.

    I think that's as much a commentary on how good he is as a primary offense runner as it is a insult to him as a teammate.

    Who cares I like conely but we need a guy who has scorer mentality at the guard spot opposite of harden.

    Players like lillard, Irving are who we need to pair harden with. We need a scoring threat at PG/off guard to James.

    If conely doesn't think it can work then he doesn't have the type of mindset we need. He's basically saying that he couldn't play with LeBron or any player better than him at doing what he does.
