Clippers & Cavs talking Harden-Garland trade

Make it happen Stone

 

They won the last 16 of 20 games and now he does this? Honestly still respect what he does on the court but what is his problem?

 

He’s extremely old so he probably doesn’t want to be on a team with 0% title odds at this point.

 

Lol this isn’t him doing anything.

 

Damn, and OKC has the Clippers pick.

 

Talk on the Clippers boards is the NBA is going to hammer LA bad for the Lenard situation and players are starting to hear about it.

 

Saw some rumbling that the Clippers were gonna get punished for the tree planting thing soon. Would explain this and why Kawhi isn't an allstar.

 

They would thank Harden and Westbrooks accordingly after another title, I am pretty sure of that.

Presti would make sure, Harden gets his credit.

 

Contenders to get bounced out the 1st or 2nd rounds because he sabotaged the team

 

OKC has their picks....so extending him does nothing, they may as well be mediocre until they control their draft assets again.

Otherwise they are just tanking to benefit another team.

Hell nah, I'd be a petty ass owner and would keep my team as mediocre as possible so that another team can't benefit off of my failures.

 

James Harden career timeline:

• June 2009 — Drafted by OKC
• Oct. 2012 — Traded to Houston

• Jan. 2021 — Traded to Brooklyn
• Feb. 2022 — Traded to Philly
• Oct. 2023 — Traded to Clippers
• Feb. 2026 — ❓ TBD

 

Honestly if he goes out east he has a better chance of winning it all. Just because of how bad the east is.

 

I am so past James Harden on this team. He's been gone 5 years and just seems like a malcontent wherever he goes. I enjoyed what he brought here but really does not fit our identity and despite needing his playmaking and offense, I don't think he's a good role model for the younger guys.

 

He's done this his entire career, a entitled little prima donna.

 

Lol why's that? He's probably a worse defender than Reed at this stage of his career.

 

This is also about the Clips refusing to make any deals to improve the team.

James has carried that team every season and was snubbed as an all star because of the allegations.

Quite simply, James wants a chance to win and not just go through the motions with an ambivalent Kawhii.

I know shams keeps discussing Garland, but the timberwolves are calling often. I'm watching for that based on contracts and talent.

Depending on how things go, this looks like it could be a 3 team deal.

I just don’t think it’s a three team deal if James is going to the Cavs. The salary with Garland’s lined up so well. Clippers might throw in a future swap perhaps but that’s pretty much the deal to me.

 

These posts always crack me up. Same person that was praising Harden for the Clippers turnaround lol. It’s just butt hurt.

 

wonder if that kawhi salary cap story before the season is to cause

but as @DreamShook stated earlier in this thread, very unlucky career

you cant make this up
