    This site agrees; they also compare Simmons to Lebron.

    I like going back years later to see how close or far off these predictions were. Some are pretty interesting actually.

    Herro package or MPJ package. Stone is not falling for Moreys sneaky attempt to dump Simmons - knowing harden is 100% a better fit with Embiid

    I think "Hoop Central" is actually Legion Sports. It's a dogsh#t source. i'm confident we are going into the season with Harden; not even confident we deal him at the deadline, especially if we are 4th in the west, which is totally likely. i think we'd have to get a blow away offer to trade him before the season.

    Given if the alternative is the Simmons or the Herros of the world I’ll be happy

    What the hell is Hoop Central? Is that BraBra’s fake agency?

    terrible. Have said the last few days it just feels like hes gonna end up in brooklyn. Miami’s package is horrendous tyler herro is never going to be a perennial all star. At least with the nets package (while terrible) it’ll fill the roster will quality players that can eventually be flipped

    I'm confused. Why would ESPN care about Harden being traded to another team? I don't get these media conspiracy theories. It sounds like every fan base that believes the referees are against their perspective teams.

    its the nba’s wet dream to have the big 3 in brooklyn. The viewership would be off the charts, they’ll be on ESPN 3 times a week

    MPJ is a weird guy and fairly dumb, but the guy can ball. He's as good as anyone we are gonna get for Harden. Living in CO, I watch a lot of nuggets basketball and he is legit. He can be a regular all star and his ceiling is a #2 on a contender IMO.

    that being said, I think it’s a bit of a risk for denver only in that no way James sticks around there for long. Glendale isn’t enough to sustain his partying lol. But 2 years and a ring? Denver does do that deal. Makes them relevant for the first time ever.

    He has a private jet so partying for him is not an issue. And to be honest I think Denver sleepy life style could be what he needs to concentrate on his craft more.

    Denver is actually beautiful. Loved going hiking near mount evans and visiting aspen.

    Many individuals on TV clearly love LA (and live near LA).

    While I would love to see this be the case, I call BS because it’s way off track where this story has been carried so far.
