    What value does Terrence Jones have as a trade piece?

    Realistically, it would take Asik AND Parsons to get Millsap. Dish Lin out elsewhere, and that will give you a slight chance at getting Lowry.

    I like Parsons like everyone here, but Morey wouldn't hesitate to trade him for a big piece. Parsons will be getting at the very least, 8-10 million per year during his next contract. Is that enough for someone to just be a 'glue guy' ? I doubt he will ever become an all star.

    Not hating on Harden. My concern is, with this team being built to win now, the concern is, can we wait for Harden to turn into a two-way player or build a solid team and still keep him in the mix.

    I thought Howard and Parsons were like BFFs, how can we trade Parsons now?

    Love has not won one single playoff series (or even gotten there), has never had a winning season & plays no defense...... & he believes that Harden & Dwight are not winners & they don't play defense.

    Well **** you Kevin Love, let him rot in Chicago with D-Rose's broken knees.

    Let's get Melo or Rondo & get this show on the road.

    Thanks Cyberx

    Think of it this way. Who would you rather have, Jones going into the 3rd season of his rookie deal or James Michael McAdoo?

    Love is right (about Harden). Not so much about Dwight.

    I spoke to the bathroom attendant at SCORES and he told me that Harden thinks Love is a clown and doesn't really want to play with him.... also said Harden is a good tipper and that he is cool with Bosh or Anthony, but not really with Love.... however would LOVE to play with a robotic version of Olajuwon to cover for all of Harden's defensive issues.... did I mention Harden loves ranch dressing with his onion rings?

    Exactly. Harden isn't a terrible defender because he isn't capable, he's just a terrible defender because he doesn't try.

    I'll be honest - during pickup games, I'm sort of similar to Harden. I put most of my effort/energy into the offensive end, and not much in the defensive end. Not because I'm not capable, but because I don't feel like wasting my energy on defense because offense is so much funner (in my opinion) . If i was in superb professional athlete shape though, that'd be different.

    He's partially right about Harden. Harden has defensive issues that probably involve effort but to say he's not a winner? He's been to the finals, he was the 2nd clutchest player in the league last year.

    Overall Love's more wrong than he is right, & he should practice what he preaches. (If Cyberx is really right)

    You can easily hit the ignore button dude especially since you are taking things I say so serious.

    There is so much to life so I suggest you get one. Taking things personal on sports blog is so damn hilarious.

    The question is whether Harden is capable of trying. Does he have the motor?
