No doubt, that’s the only reason why it’s been leaked from his camp most likely. I do believe he’ll come back if Philly still won’t pay him
Like a few in this thread I was done with Harden, but... You add a vet PG who is a triple double threat to our exciting youth movement and it could be magic. This is certainly leverage, but it could become a real option. Reasons to consider... - OKC owns our pick after this year, so its time to load up. - KPJ would likely accept a 6th man role if his hero returns. - Harden would get Green, Jabari and Sengun going--especially if we get a new coach/system. - Harden loves H-Town and contributed a lot to the city. - Harden's game should age well (if he can stay in shape). I'm talking myself into accepting his return, but my biggest worry is not his game, but his lack of leadership skills injected into our developing young core. Can he elevate that aspect of his game and set the example? That is the question I'm not sure is answerable until we see him in that situation, which makes this a risky potential opportunity.
Beard and Green backcourt and moving Scoot to the Ginobli role could be interesting… Beard/TyTy Green/ 6th man KPJ Bari Tari Wemby/Sengun and a new coach…
We ain't getting Wembly and Harden ain't coming back. Don't even understand how this is not considered tampering some how, even if it is "leaked"
Harden is the only free agent of real value that would even come to the worst team in the league. If he wants to come back, obviously you sign him. Especially with the picks likely going to OKC.
Absolutely want - old distributor Harden is a godsend to banish KPJ to Jamal CrawfordLand and turbocharge the youngsters Otherwise nobody else going to come and more boring tanking
Meaning he most likely failed to win a ship and his relationship with Morey sort of soured or at least wouldn't be the same.
Nah, I have to disagree with that. Harden and Sengun 2 man game would be lethal, it just wouldn't be lob threats. But what the **** do you do when both members of the P n R could hit you with insane creative passes you don't expect? And both of them can finish great inside with contact. It wouldn't be alley oops, but I'm damn sure very few would be able to defend it.
Rockets twitter is full of b****es...show some dignity instead of stanning over James Harden at the slightest hint of a possible return
At this point Harden is being passive aggressive again to Philly this time to get it done, this dude is never going to be content even if he comes back. How can a 33 year old be in this kind of, 'not knowing what he wants' inconsistency that is his career? #morebarking
That video was taken out of context.... Show the whole video, the one where Harden was mackin on the women in the front row and eating a chili dog. He knew the refs warned him about getting chili sauce on the ball.
We're a last-place team, whose draft picks won't be ours after this year and our cap space will open up. You sign him for a deal that makes sense for both sides and start building out around our three top picks.
He quit on us too many times I am not down with this at all especially when he is a shell of his former self. They better check on Morey if he does leave that dude will be on suicide watch.
