    Nice. I like the trade for Harden. Gives Cleveland a legit PG now. East is wide open. I think things are about to blowup in LA. Wonder if they will void the Lenard contract and he becomes a FA?

    Harden and Mitchell in the playoffs is definitely going to be something. And by that I mean very sad Cavs fans.

    Mitchell is playoff riser though. His playoffs numbers are very good.

    Cleveland got better for sure. Good enough to get to the finals? Who knows. It depends on how Mitchell and Harden gel together. I will say this, Harden's assist numbers will skyrocket with the Cavalier bigs finishing at the rim. Harden makes guys that can finish around the rim and 3 point spot shooters better. He's pretty much has done that for 15 years.

    I like this for Cleveland...East is wide open. Harden/Mitchell/Mobley/Allen (in addition to their role players) can get it done in the east versus Knicks, Celtics, Pistons and Raptors. I'm not confident in their coach though.

    Cavs might not be done, they could add a Super Small Forward to the Mix.

    OKC, Spurs, Denver have teams do all that ......what a blasphemy.

    didn't Kenny Atkinson coach Harden in BKN for a year?

    That was before Harden got there. IIRC Harden had Steve Nash as coach
