    Y’all are delusional about this Harden ****. He is NOT coming here in the offseason!! It was literally a leverage play on his part to get more money from Philly. We gotta be realistic about this. We’re gonna add a 3&D player, draft pick, and veteran back up PG. not trying to rain on everyone’s parade, but I don’t want y’all to get set up for disappointment

    It’s top 4 protected so not sure that makes OKC a contender.

    Terrible conclusions. The Rockets will not trade a top 3 pick and they won’t be able to sign Harden. I do think they would trade some, if not all, of the Nets picks for Bridges. Nets are just posturing with the 4 picks bs. 4 picks from contenders aren’t worth 2 of the Nets picks, especially to the Nets.

    Lol why the hell would Cleveland give up Garland. They have a strong core identity now and that includes Garland.

    Black / Green / Middleton / Smith / Sengun

    New Coach (Sam Cassell) —> Porter blows up & is cut.

    Kris Middleton - takes our cap space

    Anthony Black - we take him with 5th pick.

    Let's be REAL!

    We need an EXPERIENCED FRONT COURT PLAYER AND BACK COURT PLAYER.

    Harden and Collins are in play. Sign Harden and trade a future #1 and one of Jabari or KJ for Collins OR resign C. Wood (ONLY BECAUSE WE HAVE NO ONE WHO CAN HIT A THREE)

    PG - Harden, KPJ, TY TY
    SG - Green, JC
    SF- Brandon Miller #3 pick, Tari Eason
    PF - C Wood or Collins via trade, Jabari or KJ
    C- Sengun, Garaba, FA

    Lol...

    #3 for John Collins, bro you wild.

    If Rockets tried that Silver should cancel it for basketball reasons
