    We all know that Martin would have scored 29 of those points in one half and took the 2nd half off....

    I dunno Deckard. Would you say that Harden is also a consummate professional?

    I wonder if we really like White, but have acted like we don't to make him more unattractive to others.

    Excited about this trade, but I have a feeling we going to get the 14th pick again this year because of it. And all the haters that say they love this trade will demand morey's head.

    Good bye Higgins.

    Like I said, rotation players. Its not as if the guys they are fighting with for minutes are superstars.

    Cook will push Delfino for time at the backup 3 and Aldrich will push Greg Smith for time at backup Center.

    But we don't know what Lamb's potential is. Thats where your off. Your completely over selling Harden and under selling Lamb. Lamb had all the needed time to develop while we rebuilded in the next 2-5 years. To say "he's no Harden" is misleading being Lamb's just a rookie.

    I would ask for the cable deal 1st, then the Josh Smith deal. What good is a championship run, if you can't watch it?:(

    I like the deal but hope Harden is ready to carry a team and can reach that superstar status without the likes of Durant and Westbrook. If he can then deal was absolutely worth it. Were not boring anymore with addition of Lin and Harden in the backcourt.

    Yes, because last year's team had no room for growth and this year's team has a player who could become one of the best in basketball. We couldn't have traded ANYONE on last years team for a player with Harden's potential.

    The team has direction now.

    Harden is only 23 man, regardless of what lamb becomes if you can trade a expiring and a rookie for a proven all star level player who is only 23 years old you do it. Harden will be good for many many years, and daryl would give up two jermey lambs to get him.

    He's overselling a Dream Team player?

    I know people like Lamb and he's got qualities that MIGHT make him a quality NBA player.

    But he will NEVER be a Dream Teamer.

    Seriously, watch more basketball.
