I would not trade Harden for Russ. Russ trade would be multiple with Russ to 3rd team and Ben coming to Houston.

Need to play Ben WITH Harden.

Unless Harden absolutely demands a trade then and only then would I trade Harden.

For example:

LAC: Russ, Richardson
PHI: CP3, PG13
OKC: Tobias, House + 76ers FRP
HOU: Simmons, Thybulle

Morey has his big 3 with Paul and George flanking Embiid.

Kawhi gets his superstar PG.

Thunder get young players and a pick for their war chest.

Rockets get much longer and younger with 6'10 version of Russ - truly a Russ/Clint hybrid

6'5 Harden
6'5 Thybulle
6'7 RoCo
6'10 Simmons
MLE (Ibaka, Wood, Baynes, Portis, Turner, Bamba, etc.)

Or play small with EGo at 2 guard and Simmons at the 5.

that makes more sense, I misunderstood.

I definitely think Simmons and roco's best position is PF. Simmons also needs a 5-out center, and we'd need a better PG and SF so I'm wondering if we could somehow end up with a lineup of: Beverley-harden-richardson-simmons-horford. maybe if we ship out roco/house to the clippers and ego/PJ to the Sixers? we'd still have enough room under the tax for the full NTMLE.

that being said, I don't think tilman will deal with the sixers since morey went there.
