    so with the trade kicker, 3 years $62 million and the final year is a player option.

    Maybe I'm reading to much into this but if you are right. Meeting horford up at midnight and being his first meeting seems like there's more to this than what meets the eye.

    I'm not in any way implying that getting him gets Kd but man I doubt landing horford would be our only move. There has to be more to it than just that, maybe a trade as well as a another FA.

    Personally I think ppl are underestimating what a team with a core of harden/horford/Conley could be. I think that's a great big three with real chance to beat anyone with The right role players around them and having Ariza bev beasley and capela is a big start to that.

    The reason why I am absolutely hoping we snag Horford is his game is not predicated on athleticism. He is a genuinely skilled big who has a diverse skill set. People need to chill a bit on his age, he plays an old school game and I see him being very productive at 34/35 still.

    Sign me up. Get it done Morey pls.

    First deal Harden for Love and now trade for a post player that defends like a chemo patient against the sun?

    Just say no.

    I think OKC is the biggest threat.

    Other rumored teams are the Wizards, Pistons, and Warriors.
