    I have a hard time seeing Harden be OK with Barnes. I don't think he's an option.

    Yes, but it could be a top 55 protected second round pick which would never materialize.

    Crazy to think that one of our two best teams in 20 years and we are below the salary cap right now.

    Morey gonna sign Matt Barnes + Bogut to bring toughness to protect Harden.
    4 Enforcers with Harden
    Harden - Bev - Barnes - Ariza - Bogut

    I would imagine so. KJ would've been key to any deal the Rockets planned to make involving another player. With him gone, they're basically done trading. Now it's all about picking someone up who's waived or bought out.

    I'd say zero. Didn't we just trade for an identical player (but better) in Lou Williams?

    Hopefully we can use that money to get someone like Larry Sanders maybe

    Fair point.

    But I think at some point, Harden should understand it will be easier for him to get over this than playing with someone he needs to share the ball with.

    Yeah they have no moveable salary at this point unless Holic gets proven right and they are really trying to trade half their starting lineup.

    If Morey signs Matt Barnes, Harden is going to choke slam him at center court

    If we add Bogut, who gets benched? Clint? Nene? Trez for sure.

    They aren't signing an unstable guy who might mess with good chemistry.
