    He cant recruit those who are under contract. Unless you mean he is planning two years in advance?

    At the very least, it might reduce the concern about lingering bad feelings from Lawson's jokes about Harden's defense.

    I understand what you mean, but Morey's willingness to talk with Harden about roster moves has to make it a real possibility for next season, right?

    Well, hell, I'm sure there was recruiting going on, if not outright "so, after the trade, we'll meet at the Rockets practice facility..."

    Or maybe, "Why you dogging ME on defense, you matador, no-defense m*****f*****?"

    Harden encouraging Lawson to try to force a trade to Houston so the Rockets don't have to give up too much.

    Were they hanging out or did they just run into each other?

    He is locked up until 2017 . Who knows what happens by then. He may have already been traded to Houston ;)

    Oh yeah baby. Lawson is the one we need.

    Btw... For those noting Lawson's potential lack of defense, here's something to consider. Making your opponent play defense tires them out and makes them worse offensively. See Klay Thompson against the Rockets.

    I agree. We could not stop Curry because he doesn't have to do anything on defense accept leave his man to double Harden at the end of games.

    Look what happened with Curry when he had to guard Mike Conley. He was still great, but was not unstoppable

    Klay was guarding HARDEN. The most difficult player in the league to guard aside from maybe Lebron. Lawson is good but is not beast mode good like Harden.

    I would give the proverbial left nut for Lawson. Just knowing that the Warriors will have to work their asses off on defense would give me much pleasure. This guy is nearly a perfect fit for a team like the Rockets. Give whatever it takes to get him.

    I'm supportive. He is a realistic acquisition target. Not many that are going to be better than Bev and potentially available.

    Ty Lawson starting with Bev off the bench would've had us in the finals. I'd love to have Lawson on this squad, I hate playing against him
