    Sure seems like outside of Simmons (and maybe JBrown) that Michael Porter Jr has the most 'star upside' of any young player we could target for Harden

    Gary Harris + Barton would have to be involved for $ match

    MPJ, Harris, Barton + 2 future 1sts ...

    Wood / Boogie
    PJ / House
    MPJ / Barton
    EGo / Harris
    Wall / Grant

    Sucks becoming a fringe playoff team now but I could def see an Ingram-like explosion for MPJ in the right situation

    Harden could vault DEN ahead of both LA teams as WC favorites

    I'd love to see him go to Boston purely to hear Simmons explode

    On the most recent Zach Lowe podcast he has Tim McMahon as a guest and they were discussing a rumor Zach heard about the Nets trying to trade for MPJ in order to offer us a package centered around him. I’m surprised that rumor hasn’t gained traction here.

    I do not see Nugs giving Porter away.

    MPJ is soft, injury prone and a big-time Diva. That's a HARD PASS for me.

    I saw a supposed Denver insider say they are interested but not trading Jokic or Murray

    Yeah wasn’t MPJ the one in the bubble saying that Covid was a lie? I don’t want that idiot on the Rockets unless he’s a secondary player in a trade. He can’t be the center piece.

    Lol Houston doesn’t want PG. Not happening. Claw, Harden and Ibaka would be super solid

    I can't imagine Harden being super excited to go to Denver....

    Jokic, Harden and Murray might not be an ideal fit but if it clicks it is a scary trio

    We gotta get Silas some high character young guys that won’t give him headaches after this **** show with Russ and Harden.

    I don’t think Harden even wants the west. He doesn’t want to deal with Lebron Ad for 2 years.

    Clippers with Harden would win it all. But we get back Lou and Bev? Hah.

    I'm not taking a deal unless we get a stud or package l.a. sent to New Orleans. I also understand why Harden is pissed! Morey spent everyday strategizing with James Harden. I'm surprised the minute Silas and Stone were hired they didn't do the same with Harden!

    Harden and the city of Denver don’t mix, but my goodness, they would be title favorites if the main piece they were giving up is a MPJ
