James Harden's Brooklyn Nets

Not sure what the tweet is supposed to imply. "Aging player misses more games than he did when he was young" isn't exactly mindblowing.

If you're Morey, you'd think about it. Even though Embiid is still young, GMs around the league probably want to buy low for Simmons, leaving you with limited options. If Harden is on the market, he instantly becomes the best piece / player you can trade for, most likely. If the 'gamble' on Harden doesn't work out this year, there's always next year. And if you don't win it next year, Harden becomes a $47M expiring contract that allows you financial flexibility. Hell, Harden might even sign for less years and less money just to stay with Embiid, allowing you to bolster your roster.

FWIW, Simmons' contract lasts for 3 more seasons after this one. If teams don't want him now or are otherwise unwilling to part with good assets now, what makes Morey think teams will want him next season, or the seasons after that?

 

The tweet was explicitly sharing the fact that Harden has missed nearly as many games in one year than he has since 2009. What anyone wants to infer from that fact is their prerogative.

Aging players do tend to miss more games, but did Harden suddenly reach some age threshold after 2020 which changed him from an ironman for over a decade to injury prone? Conversely Harden's injuries the past year could just be bad luck or an aberration rather than predictive of his future.

Harden is only under contract for 1 more year after this and that is a player option. Whether he stays or is traded or leaves as a FA next season, Harden is 99.9% going to sign a new contract or extend his existing one. The most he can get is somewhere around 5/270.

As for Morey and the prospect of trading for Harden, IMO the deal would and should be done if it were available. Trading a disgruntled Simmons and a few other assets for Harden is a no brainer.

 

Nets about to fall out of top 6. LOL

 

Showing up after back to back short off seasons 25+ pounds overweight didn't help.

 

I'm hoping for a NETS vs BUCKS first round series.

It might be the best 1st round matchup in the history of the NBA.

 

Not sure how The Bucks sweeping Brooklyn is one of the best 1st rounds in the NBA but okay....

 

Eyerie talking to Jim about commitment?
Imagine Harden's face.

 

Real talk I saw one poster on here after the Buck won a champion(in a thread in the GARM btw) say that Giannis represents the "Houston spirit" lmao, my goodnesss....

 

Are you implying Brooklyn can beat or even compete with The Bucks, this year.... Not last year... This year... Harden always conveniently gets injured, either way the results are the same healthy or actually injured...

 

sure



how you gonna say its trash, when perimeter players of the past all benefitted from weak ass touch fouls
--------------

the league changed the rules because the nets big 3 was the greatest nba offense in history

 

James Harden’s Diet Plan

Everyone desires a perfectly toned, muscular, and athletic body. The famous NBA star James Harden is someone from whom one can draw inspiration.

The 6 feet 5-inch player has a personality that one can easily distinguish from the crowd. Whether it has to be those drastic weight loss or the perfect personality, Harden has it all.

The amazing performances and victories of Harden can be largely attributed to his strict diets and rigorous exercise regimes.

Apart from his amazing basketball court techniques, one can also draw inspiration from his disciplined and strict diets.

‘The Beard’ as his friends call him, has an amazing diet plan that can be followed by anyone to achieve their desired healthy bodies. The NBA star believes that in order to perform one’s best in basketball games, one has to be physically fit. Therefore he believes in working hard and training harder.

Let’s take a deep dive into his diet secrets that keep his energy high and body fit throughout the games.

‘Nutrition means everything’ says Harden. A fairly healthy diet ensures that he delivers his best. That does not imply that he does not indulge in cheat meals; he does just like any other human being.

Harden’s diet prominently consists of healthy and clean food that keeps him energetic and fit.

Harden has a perfect exercise regime that goes hand in hand with his diet that enables him to play his best on the court. He has a big sweet tooth and loves to indulge in cookies, ice creams, brownies, hot fudge, and sundaes.

Sounds relatable right? But the healthy part of his meals is too dominant.

Harden’s diet consists of fresh fruits, fish, eggs, and smoothies. He prefers real meals. Once a lover of junk food, he avoids it at all costs now and is much more focused on foods that help him keep his performance at his best. Pineapples, apples, oranges, watermelons are all fruits that he loves to blend into smoothies coupled with some greens to meet his vitamins and minerals requirements.

For sweets, he has replaced sugary desserts with protein bars and fruits, especially watermelon slices.

Always knew he was a fatty that loves sweets.

anyway it's never too late to start a diet, just look at CP

 

No more A-1 sauce?

 

Without Durant, you would bet on Brooklyn even taking two games?

 

I don't really understand Nash's rotations. The few times I've watched the nets I feel like Bembry is a solid player for them. He is exactly what they need in a tough defender to go with the big three but for some reason he barely plays.

 

HAHAHAHAAAAAAAHAHAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
