    And why would Sacramento do it?

    Why would they want an older, more injured player who is likely to be upset at the trade and demand to leave right away in exchange for their young stud? Just to get an extra mid-1st round pick?

    You people are unable to understand the concept that other teams have brains, too.

    Was at the game tonight, he didn't look interested. Shooting three pointers and half-court hook shots before the game, fumbling passes left and right and rebounding and defending lackadaisically.

    Hopefully he dominates in the playoffs again. If he plays like that, and Harden FINALLY brings his A game, then we can go very very deep.

    No offense taken. but i disagree. we need "mvp harden" to win a title THAT is what was absent from the playoffs last year. We had "good dwight" and we got bounced in the 1st round...

    PS im probably older than 99% of the people on cf...

    Sure, Dwight's replaceable. The problem is that person who can replace him are players who are never ever traded. So what's the point of wondering?

    everybody just take a deep breath. Dwight isn't going anywhere. His playoff performance was bananas. If Dwight plays at that level again in the playoffs and Harden can play like a MVP the sky is seriously the limit for us.

    Dwight isn't replaceable, when he's at the top of his game, he's one of, if not the best big man in the game. The problem is that he's gimped up right now and not at the top of his game. Fortunately we have a decent group of big men to take some of the pressure off of him and I'd be for lowering his minutes till he gets his legs back. We need him healthy for the playoffs.

    If you're talking about Dwight quit acting like a moron and actually look up the stats from the series.

    It depends, you could easily replace him with DMo at center and the team would be much better offensively, but rebounding would suffer.

    Dwight needs to realize that he is not the primary scorer in the post anymore, and the sooner he stops whining about his touches, and gets busy setting picks and being a bully and the best garbage man in the league the better.

    Remember all of you guys criticized Dwight just as much last season and he stepped up big time when it counted.

    Dwight played just the same in the regular season last year in terms of effort but picked it up big time.

    He hasn't been aggressive about touches this season so far... Heck even Shaq said Dwight is deferring too much to Harden.

    And quit saying he doesn't set screens and rebounds etc..... He has been doing a lot of picks this season.
