Harden was tanking to force Nets to trade him. Nets wouldn't do the trade otherwise. Harden did Rockets a solid. Thanks James.
https://themississippilink.com/2022...s-wish-again-and-thats-a-problem-for-the-nba/ He will screw the pooch in Philly.... probably head back to California next summer.
Y'all simple minded fools don't see the truth. Harden forced the trade from rockets so that rockets can steal picks from bkn. Him and morey will return to the rockets and rockets will use the bkn picks to get kwahi. Championship guaranteed. China will be monitoring the situation and will realize how devious those 2 are and decide to free hon Kong instead of having evil geniuses are enemies.
I can see a universe where James wins his ring or two in Philly and then wants to ”come home” in his twilight and win one with our new stars. Not saying it’s a good idea or that id be for it, but I can see Fertitta milking that cash cow one last time especially if James is still serviceable in 3-4 years.
This is unfortunately the way things are for the superstar players, who can decide when they want out and sulk or quit until they are traded.
This is tough for me. I want Atlanta and Washington to pass up Brooklyn, but I also want, at minimum, a top-5 pick. I guess I can accept a Hawks win. *shrug*
I’m all for it I want Philly to win this year for James. with that said James is a rocket at the end of the day. I would love to see him come home for his last few years and if he brings us a title also even better but he needs to finish his career in Houston. The fact that he still does his charity every summer here, his house as well as his businesses. I love James win a ring or two in Philly and then come home and be a part of the new young stars we have and bring us another title.
I just had these two scenarios back to back on tankathon. Would you rather have the #1 and #14 pick? or Rather the #4 and #6 pick?
Hawks aren’t serious, and I don’t trust the Hornets hopefully Charlotte comes through tomorrow…I expect Philly to give BK a case of the beats on Thursday
I can’t decide. Both are enticing. I would consider trading the 6th for a pick next year. Then trade that and the bucks pick plus wherever the rockets end up and move as high as possible. I hope they do that regardless with the nets pick this season. Adding two more rookies would cause the tank to surface again next season. The rockets would have what 9 players 19-23 years old playing?
