Today's Hot Take: Trade Jalen Green for James Harden

It clearly shows who WATCHES basketball and who doesn’t! Why would ANYONE want to bring back Harden on this team? SMH

 

Jalen for LaMelo. Both And1 players who care about off the court love & less about winning.

EVEN TRADE.

 

Even if it made sense for basketball reasons, as a fan I would object. He forced his way out and that I cannot abide.

 

I agree with your premise, It will require more assets to acquire either Freak/Booker ... the only one I'm sure I want to part ways with is Jalen and I know it will take a lot more than that to get the deal done!

That's not why I'm in angst though, I simply/honestly/fervently am apposed to bringing back ANYONE who poop'd on HTown or the Rockets!! I still remember fat suit Harden doing everything in his power to force a trade WHILE sabotaging his value in negotiation! Thank goodness for the idiots in NYC or we'd of gotten screwed by every other team in the league!!

(P.S.) Before I get any responses about Tilly/Stone being part of the mess... I KNOW! I wish we as a city had an option to trade owners/gm's but we don't... I digress.

do it

 

Let me look in my crystal ball.

Harden is covering Deven Booker 1-on-1 on a switch and then gets blown by on a defensive assignment. Harden throws up his hands wondering why Alp didn't have his back.
Ime benches Harden the rest of the game. Harden shows up late for the next shoot around. Ime benches Harden for the next game. Harden goes on a podcast explaining how he's being misused. Ime benches Harden permanently and ultimately Stone cuts him for a total loss.

 

I honestly dont want eitherr. Yes I think Harden would have been better for our bigs than FVV. But then I really dont want FVV either. If I had my way Jalen Green and FVV would be traded for Lamelo Ball or someone else and Harden would only return to Houston on a vet min if not I dont want him. FVV and Jalen are too streaky and it destroys the Rockets. I dont hate either just being real.

 

The "Harden Ship" has sailed. Do not want.

 

I don't want Harden back and I'd never support trading for him... but if we had Harden instead of Jalen, we'd still be playing right now.

 

Look, fan fiction is great and all, but Harden is not beating the Warriors no matter who is around him.

 

Then Stone says “This situation is crazy. I don’t think it can be fixed.”

 

Harden already had his chance to beat GS. Failed. Went scorched earth.

You that guy that keeps calling his x, right? Maybe next time it'll work out better. Maybe. Maybe.

 

Looks like you should move on from 2018 imo. Stuck in the past.

 

Somebody didn't watch Harden in that game 7 against the Nuggets, or the game 6 last year against the Mavericks, or the game 7 in Philly against the Celtics or all the other closeout games before. You said that Harden can be our 3rd option. Did you not just see that GSW series? We don't have a 1st and 2nd option. The person we're trading for has to be the 1st option. That was like our biggest issue that whole series. I like the idea of upgrading FVV to Harden as our playmaker but only if this team also trades for a 1st option because we definitely do not have one yet.

 

Absolutely no ****ing way.
