    He did that with CP3 in 2018 when CP3 still had it, no?

    he’s not gonna defer to 2019 CP3 and Westbrick when it matters most, nor should he have...even then, he still deferred to Westbrick in the clutch at times which was the wrong move to make, but he did it

    John Wall is already a better option with the ball in his hands. I feel comfortable knowing we have a secondary ballhandler that can make better decisions and not settle for bricking long 2s or throwing the ball away.

    Probably the true story is he threw a no look pass that hit Tate in the head, because he signed rather than zagged. Then Tate ran over and they discussed how the play should have run.

    Media twists it just a little bit and he is throwing balls at people

    I’ll be honest, I didn’t know what you and James Harden were telling me back then. I was confused by your geniuses.

    As soon as we trade Harden then any chance at a championship goes too. We will be middle of the pack but not bad enough to draft a stud. That's not a good place to be.

    I am in favor of waiting till the deadline right now. There's no rush, so why push it? There are two things that waiting gives us:

    1- Teams underachieve and they come to a fuller realization of where they are as far as championship potential.
    2- This team does well and likely overachieves, in which case Harden isn't so desperate to get moved

    I don't think #2 is THAT likely, but its a possibility. My sense is he really wants out, so the team will still move him, but crazier things have occurred.

    Agree. If Harden ONLY cares about winning, then I can see him being more open minded than the reports have seemed to suggest.

    I’m still looking at those 2 Lakers games in a few weeks. Short turnaround or not, if we aren’t competitive, that could be the clincher.

    Well naturally it closes the window for a period. We aren’t trading him because we want to....

    Use the FRP to bring in another quality STARTER to BUILD AROUND Harden.



    All the trade talks for Harden are completely nonsensical.
