    heat calling the rockets bluff pretending like they have so many great offers for James. if you have such great deals then make one.

    the truth is, like I've BEEN saying a star in their 30s isn't going to get as much back as you think. the deals aren't going to get better without a team getting more than Harden back, and I don't mean throwing in PJ

    Herro and Robinson are a good haul - when you had James Harden to pair with them.

    Trade made no sense for either team. It was gift of the magi ****.

    Butler picks for Harden helps both teams more.

    The hell are you talking about. Rockets aren't bluffing. They want a King's ransom, no one has met their demands, therefore, they are keeping James. It surely isn't that difficult, is it? Price is clear at this point, maybe they will soften their stance down the road, who knows.

    Especially when Philly has the athletic glorified Chuck Wagon in Simmons waiting for us

    Herro's ego has to be at an all time high knowing that he was the centerpiece for a trade offer for James Harden.

    I got a surprise news for you.

    90% of the fans in this forum are delusional sociopaths.

    MIA as constructed didn't have an answer for Lebron and AD. By most measures Lakers gotten better. Without a shake up, if they end up in the finals again, do they think they a better chance this year.

    I'm Ok with Stone not settling for Herro and picks, even though I think Herro is gonna be a star. We MUST be blown away by the offer.

    I don't think he should settle for Simmons + picks either, even though I understand Simmons is more of a proven commodity.

    I would have been surprised if MIA decided to blow that core up for Harden anyway.

    Well its cleared that they have the right Jim that at least can lead them to the final in his first year with the team, so why trading for the one who can't do it in his last 8 years?

    I approve this deal second to a Simmons deal. Just his Giannis-like up-side is ridiculous. You wouldn’t even need to get another point guard.

    Wall
    Gordon
    House
    Simmons
    Wood

    Cousins/Caboclo
    Tucker
    MMac
    Nwaba
    Tate

    “Houston has had trade discussions with the Brooklyn Nets, Philadelphia 76ers and Denver Nuggets, among others, around Harden, who has requested a trade.”
