    see what? he can't get a 5 year max from philly due to the over 38 rule. he can only get a 5 year deal if its less than max. rockets can offer a 4 year max which is better than a potential 5 year deal from philly with state income tax differences

    If I was harden , I'd consider SA

    Also a boatload of cap space, fat ass Latinas, quick drive / flight to H-town in case he's feeling nostalgic. Could expand his houston business to SA


    If they get #1 they can have Victor, James, and vasell/ sochan / Keldon... plus they have about as much future ammo as we do

    Biggest plus for SA is he would have POP

    He's always been a bit weird, been his own man

    I can see him owning it .

    Besides I bet SA is gonna become more popular . It's proximity to Austin and growth is gonna make it like a mega city .

    James could buy a nice ass ranch and build his own strip club bringing in talent from across Texas

    Dallas has been the place where Parsons signed...

    I think Dallas was also a hot candidate for Dwight.

    They already have a Harden.

    SA is not a FA destination. and its even worse now that D.Murray clowned it publicly on the ATS podcast. nobody on the level of harden is going there willingly on their own free will

    In no way is SA a city harden is just wanting to go to

    I considered Dallas too , but I don't think they have the cap space and he doesn't wanna play with Irving

    I still would look for a younger superstar meanwhile, Harden has an expiration date, even if that's 3 years.

    Jalen Green does not have enough body to bump off defenders

    There way to much smoke and rumors going around for this to be a leverage play.

    Ja is smaller than he is, yet is able to do so. and be one of the top in fta's per game

    he can already get there about 5-6 times a game. It's very conceivable to take another step so he can get to the 8 range with some guidance

    Ja Is a bit of a flopper and he throws his body around

    Green also gets some fta ( by being fast and skinny and flailing )

    Neither of them have the old-man style of harden

    I’ll never forget that Harden ended his farewell Instagram post with a message akin to, “This isn’t goodbye because I pay all my debts.” That obviously could have been a throwaway line, but it always stuck-out to me.
