    Without Tim Breaux... we would have never netted James Harden

    13. Houston Rockets: August 26, 1994
    Free agent: Tim Breaux → Othella Harrington (as future pick) → Steve Francis → Reece Gaines → Mike James → Rafer Alston → Kyle Lowry → Steven Adams (as future pick) → […]

    A. James Harden

    B. Cole Aldrich → Thomas Robinson → Kostas Papanikolaou → Isaiah Hartenstein (as future pick)

    C. Cole Aldrich → Thomas Robinson → Dillon Brooks (as future pick) → De’Anthony Melton (as future pick) → Marquese Chriss + Brandon Knight

    Breaux scored 289 points in 96 career games for Houston. Harden, his trade descendant, has scored 610 points in 14 games this month.

    Tim Breaux was featured in Double Clutch and said and I quote "The Admiral didn't know how to guard Hakeem" He was pivotal in keeping the bench warm and was even better as a cheerleader. Forever part of the ❤️ of a champion

    When we traded Breaux to the Grizzlies, among the assets we sent was a 1st rounder in the '96 draft. It was a #22 pick that Vancouver used to select a PF from the University of Alabama who would go on to one day coach none other than James Harden.

    I just appreciate Buck Johnson for not b**** about how he had to always give up taking shots so that Olajuwon can do the dream shake down low

    I think his championship ring was up for auction a few years ago. Kind of sad.

    If the fans of today were there in the 90s
    He would have a thirty page thread about his potential

    Sad but true - and they would probably highlight his 26ppg (in Australia)

    He had about as many good games as House in the NBA right?

    Les's chip rings gave you a green stain if you wore them too long
