Stephen A- Rockets are not getting quality trade offers, don't expect to get back much in a trade

that's why clippers and paul george are on the table

 

nobody wants a locker room cancer like Harden and it only gets worse by the day

when teams see that Harden is actively sabotaging us, no one will want to give up anything for him and we'll be stuck with him for the next 2 years

 

After the season, yeah maybe.

 

Again.. Not too many were gonna gut their contending team for a 31 yr old Harden, especially with his style of play... This crap he's doing now is making it impossible to get back,what trade history tells us, we should be getting... Take the Simmons deal( if Philly still interested) and move on!

 

Whoever want Harden want to compete for the title. They can't compete if they gave up their star. It's best to trade during off season. Too bad we had a short off season.

 

Surprised that a Philly inquirer guy would have access to this info.

 

I think you have to suspend him for 2 weeks if the strip club video was within the last week. After the two weeks are up, tell him to shut up and play and you will trade him once he reestablishes his value. One of these teams will be underperforming at the deadline and make a real offer.

 

I doubt it either MPJ or the Miami deal are prolly the only options now

 

No. The proposed trades will be worse at deadline.

 

I still want the team to hold on to Harden for the next two years, and don't let him play at all in order to run his value down as low as possible then let him go having robbed him of millions of dollars on his next contract and 2 years of his prime as punishment for his b****assness.

 

Fans would riot if Tillman gave JH away for chump change.

Tilman devalues everything he comes in contact with .... even JH himself.

 

Nah. One of those teams will be underperforming and looking for a boost. If James plays like James he will have more value.

 

Not after these recent events I can’t see how anybody in their right minds would defend James.

And stop with the Tilman hate it’s old now.

This is all on James

 

Teams have no problem paying Harden top dollar. They are not going to trade away their future for it.

 

Are you sure tho?

And James isn’t going to be playing from the looks of everything right now.

 

Let's put that to the test, make him sit out of the league for the next 2 years and we'll see the kind of offers a 33 year old head case gets. I'd be willing to bet it's nowhere near what he'd have gotten if he signed that max extension that was offered at one time.

 

Still believe Nets and Knicks might be had:

then harden exercises his player option and rockets pay 45+ million for a guy who gets much less on the FA market . Plus , harden can sign a one year deal to re-establish he’s still got it .

Unless the nba stops being a players league , harden can hurt us more than we can hurt him .

sure , we can tarnish his reputation . Good luck convincing any premier FA to come plays here when they know the owner is vindictive and will try to destroy them at the first sign of trouble .

unless we wanna be overpaying mediocre free agents , you gotta treat your stars well .

now there is a balance . Rockets don’t have it .

harden is acting immature no doubt . But if the rockets do this they are shooting themselves in the foot .

think about what a professional harden has been before all of this . Before this he DIDNT pull a PG , or a Kawhi , or an AD .

he’s been all about Houston. Something changed .

harden is making himself look bad enough . When the organization stoops to that level it’s not good .

 

Tillman will still be hated here no matter what. He's garbage. Just because James is being an idiot and acting in low character does not make TIllman good.
