    I know that he hides from the media letting Silas take all the Harden heat while he leaks info to feed the ESPN hit pieces on Harden.

    Throw in Maxey' with the picks and i'm good.

    Let him run the 76ers into the ground. He'll be chasing Brooklyn in 2 years

    Wall
    Gordon/Maxey
    Thybulle
    Simmons
    Woods/Cousins

    This headline is ass backwards. The Rockets were always open to trade Harden to whichever team that wanted him as long as they met the asking price. More teams now want to trade for Harden as they realize 2021 FA market is ass. HODL strategy has paid off and Harden's value is appreciating. Just wait until Houston starts winning games and leaks start coming that Harden is softening on his stance to get traded, then only a kings ransom would be able to pry him away.

    Its 2020 haven't you simps learned the meaning of HODL. You don't sell low in a sellers market.

    I'm wondering if this is some Sun Tzu ****.
    I'm certainly not mad at the patient position they're playing and the poker face they're showing.

    This is basically, Rockets leaking info versus Morey.

    Finally the front office got off their ass and did something. Moreys been telling the media for weeks how Simmons is untradeable. How he and embid are the franchise. How great they are, blah blah blah.

    Now with the rockets leaking this info, Morey has to hurry and do damage control.

    This tweet could've easily just said "Rockets doing their due diligence".

    Shelburne is a genius.

    I was told that Harden is a cancer and no one wants him.

    I hope you are right and this is strategy instead of stupidity.

    All power to you my friend.

    I, too, was a Harden defender. I probably spent 1-2 hours a day on facebook and various other platforms defending james Harden.

    for me tho, i did that because I'm a Rockets Fan. If Harden is no longer a Rocket, my support will end there.

    You don't think Daryl called on the Sixers about Ben when he was here?
    And they always wanted James back in any of those deals, right?

    I don't think Ben Simmons is the kind of guy Morey wanted on the Rockets.

    I like a game of professional gamesmanship and it looks like the teacher is challenging the student.
    And the student is up for it.
    May be taking it personally.

    Clearly talks have ramped up. Expect Harden to be traded any moment and I am ready for disappointment.
