Hawks' version of cyberx says this about Rockets trade rumor

Also, he mentioned Houston isn't finding the offers it needs yet and think Harden play could rebuild and teams could become desperate once they fail. So they are going to hold out but around the league, people think Harden value is realistic. They just aren't ready to commit to it.

Im glad,, I hope he's right. Lets do it. Lets play this out. Screw these guys if they want to be stupid and low ball us. Lets dominate to start this season and renew our championship hopes.

 

Man, 2018 WCW game 7... if Chris Paul played, we would have won and Harden would have been happy going to NBA Finals.

Thanks for nothing..GS.

 

How reliable is this guy? didn’t he say Boston had a deal lined up for Harden at the draft ?

 

Not sure about this guy or not.

mainly everything he is saying is common sense.

 

For all y’all who want to keep harden and all this blah blah blah.

Remember he does not want to be here man let him go.

Y’all look like y’all begging this man y’all sound really weak.

It’s over the harden era is over let’s move on.

 

Yeah if you can’t atleast get a reasonable value deal back let him build up his value on the court and then visit this again.

 

Yeah he's not as reliable as I thought he would be either lol

 

Nobody is begging him to stay. All we’re saying is if the trade doesn’t improve is, let’s wait. Don’t panic even if we have to get “uncomfortable”.

Stop acting tough behind a keyboard.

 

Unfortunately no team with John Wall is a championship contender

 

I’m grown...my tough days are behind me I have a family I have to take care of.

But anyways back to sports.

Imo there is no oh if the deals aren’t good let’s wait.

Trade him for the best package available right now and let’s move on.

Stalling on the deal is going to hinder the development and chemistry of the team.

Cut bait now and let’s get to the games with players that want to be here and let’s go.

 

Thank God you’re not the GM
Sell low is not a good strategy

 

The reports is not that he does not want to be here. The reports are that he rejected the $50 million a year extension for the past 3 seasons and that he gave the build a contender or trade me to one ultimatum for the past 3 years as well. We are just now hearing about it now, coincidently right after Morey's departure. So he just want to be in a place where he feel like he can win.. Our best bet is to build a contender with the pieces we got to try and win this year. Cuz these trade proposals are foofoo and we'll be trash for the next decade if we accepted them.

 

Lol you that down on John Wall?

 

That's not how this works. This trade or no trade will change the franchise's history.

This is the most important decision since the team traded for James Harden.

This is Stone's legacy, Tilman's legacy and basically whether or not this team will be watchable for the next five years. This goes wrong? Tilman could literally lose this team. Economic depression is already going to hurt him next year. If the team is bad and ticket sales go away for the next 2/3 years, he will be forced to sell. He will be a laughing stock in Houston for decades. He will supplant Bud Adams as the synonym for bad ownership.

You don't rush into a bad deal because you are worried about chemistry for one season that won't end in a championship regardless. This is a decades altering move. You have to really be sure it's right. Sometimes the best deal is no deal.

 

Its better than Westbrook lol. And if Cousins and Woods can be impact players....we have a squad here.

 

So he’s not all in basically.

 

I would agree but the only “IF” that you can’t risk is “IF” harden gets hurt then we are screwed seriously.

Imagine if harden gets hurt. Like really think about that for a second.

And I agree about not selling low but I don’t think about it like that.

I look at it like owning a stock that has no chance of turning around where you can at least get back at the price you brought.

Sometimes it is best to sell the stock even if it’s at a lost and invest in other stocks that have the potential to make profit.

Trust me if we don’t sell harden now even at a low rate. Chemistry attitude and mostly injuries are a big risk to take. And whatever “cheap” deals we think we are receiving for harden will absolutely be worse later not better.

 

So we WANT Fertitta and STONE to rush into a bad deal! SWEET JAMES HARDEN to Sacramento for Whiteside and the worst contracts they got. Put us over the luxury tax and send all our picks too! Then Fertitta will have to sell!

 

its not over, until harden quits and doesnt suit up on wednesday
