Woj: Rockets want to trade Harden "sooner rather than later"

I wanted him for Westbrook, but sure as **** not for Harden.

 

Price going up for Philly.

Simmons is a joke.

 

That makes sense, but I was reluctant to even do that after his terrible playoff performance.

 

This guy virtually has no offense except layups.

 

Marcus Smart just had a pretty bad collision. Looks like a shoulder injury. Back in the game but we saw that with LMM. Yea. Simmons looks awful. I’d need Maxey, Thybulle and 4FRP on top of Simmons. There’s not a realistic trade where the Rockets get close to value. Harden isn’t leaving.

Brown, Smart and 3FRP would be the most realistic deal at this point. I say he stays

 

The Rockets would have been an EC Finals team multiple times with Harden.

 

What do you think not reporting to training camp and blatantly violating COVID rules did? I swear, get me a group of suckers like you to defend me to no end lol

 

most nba gms disagree with you, harden probably high the 4th highest trade value in the league next to zion, luka, and giannis

 

Lol, and the Philly fans on one of their message boards was like "no way" "don't trade Simmons for Harden", lol. Good look with that Philly fans. Delusional. Offensive superstars win Championships, not defensive-player-of-year candidates, lol.

 

Why are y’all so eager to build around Ben Simmons again? Embiid is out, and this dude takes just 8 shots as his team gets blown out by Cleveland.

Idgaf how good your defense is or that you’ve made an All-NBA 3rd team or whatever else he’s done, if u can’t and won’t even attempt to shoot as a perimeter player, u are not someone to be building around

I don’t want to hear about how he’s a jump shot away from being on Bron’s level when he’ll need a minor miracle just to get a Westbrick caliber jumper

don’t bring up Giannis either...Giannis has been a 20+ ppg scorer since his 4th season...Simmons still stuck at 15-16 ppg

 

Terrible news, also completely takes the Nets out as a viable trading partner. His contract was needed to make it work and now he's out for the year on an expiring deal.

So Nets out.

Simmons looks awful.

The Heat cannot trade Bam this year. It would take about 6 players to make the trade make sense. Not happening.

Raptors extending OG essentially takes him out of deals.

Boston is probably the last realistic place he could land. Ainge never gives up **** in a trade. Stone isn't getting rolled over in his career defining move. It would take Brown, Smart and 3 FRP.

Harden isn't leaving.

 

True, but Brooklyn just got a bit more vulnerable with this injury. This is a major loss for them. Other teams may see this as an opportunity.

Brooklyn trade offer was not good enough anyways.

 

Oh no chance in a 2 team deal.

Brooklyn would have needed a third team. Maybe Denver for MPJ.

Dinwiddie is a valuable player. Honestly, he's better than LeVert. Denver has no use for an injured Dinwiddie at this point.

 

the Nets were never a viable trade partner unless they were including Kyrie or KD...they’ve been out for weeks

Harden not leaving is fine by me, that’s the preferred option

 

Was just about to post about Spencer. That's one team off of the Harden list

 

Jesus........ talk about opinions blowing in the wind.

 

Simmons playing like spread open ass cheeks is not helping Philly. AT ALL!

And I love it!!

While James just keeps doing James things on the court the rest of the league has been put on notice. Price is going up by the day!

Philly should have bent the knee before the dude started playing LOL

Im holding out hope James just kills everything in his path to start the year. Talking bout scorched earth - leaving a trail of devastation in his wake that would make the unguardable toor look like AAU ball. Rub all the journalists nose in their hateful articles and somehow SOMEWAY .. win this fking thing this year.

HTown needs a break in luck - we've been getting ground up for a few years now - law of averages right?

 

Simmons is horrible.
