    Especially with Alpi on one baseline and Jabari camped out in the opposite corner. Throw in Green for a possible kick-out. Who's going to guard all that ****?

    14% chance. (And no, it's not rigged in 2023 whether it ever was in the past or not.)

    So yes you're probably right--86% chance--but I don't know what you get out of posting this, lol.

    Anyway, I've personally made peace with wherever we pick. The top of this draft class is great so we're going to get a good prospect no matter what, unless the front office just totally sh**s the bed and reaches for some really low-end prospect, which I doubt will happen based on previous drafts.

    We all know today's superstar don't really need the contract to expire in order to force out.

    James Harden wasn't selected as All NBA teams for the past 3 seasons...

    I wouldn't take too much stock into it, it's a popularity contest at the end of the day.

    Man was still averaging over 20 pts, 10 assists over 3 seasons and was on winning teams. Not many folks can do that consistently.

    if James Harden’s name was CP3, he would’ve been on All-NBA 2nd or 3rd Team the last 3 years.

    Harden’s past 3 seasons:

    25, 9, and 11…22, 8, and 10…21, 6, and 11

    zero All-NBA

    CP3 the 3 seasons before this one:

    18, 5, and 7…16, 5, and 9…15, 4, and 11

    All-NBA 2nd Team twice, and 1 All-NBA 3rd Team

    Reading the quality and thoughtfulness of the posts on each side of the debate helped me get off of the fence on a Harden return. One side uses statistics to lay out the logic over multiple time periods and how he impacts multiple players’ developments.

    The other talks about strip clubs, uses bad jilted lover analogies and include a lot of “grrr” emoticons.

    I’m in.

    It brings out the best and the worst out of CF peeps.......that is for certain.

    I have never seen another 34 year old dude being this controversial........

    It is not like 23 year old JH knocking on the door of a Daryl Morey.
