    3 players I've never really enjoyed following even when they were excellent on the court.

    Carmelo
    Cousins
    Draymond.

    That’s great news and also dangerous news....worst possible outcome is harden plays nice for a year and then tells u he’s gone- he’ll have all the leverage. Alternatively, if the sixers don’t bring Simmons what can u do

    I'd be down to give it a chance, Wall is a better player when healthy...he's just never healthy. Anything to dump Westbrook really.

    We can only hope.

    He's a Rocket now, so I will give him a chance.

    I don’t wanna trade Russ for Wall. Russ is still a very capable scorer but Wall is a complete unknown and probably washed.

    Offensively he will be another huge weapon.

    But cannot play switch everything with him in line up.

    Get ready for more zone and drop coverage. If so, do not want to hear all the complaints about teams killing us from mid range.

    That is the trade off with this signing. More offense, less defense.

    Unless the Wizards are giving up additional assets, there is no chance I’m touching John Wall, who is coming off a torn achilles and has three years remaining on a supermax contract.

    Absolutely love this. Extremely high risk but also high reward.

    Harden is staying, and I think Westbrook too.

    There’s a LOT both can improve on if they just change their playing style. If Harden can simply CONTINUE MOVING when he passes the ball, it’s game over.

    I would in a heart beat! The guy looks more capable of playing off the ball than Westbrook. Also watching him play the guy makes dumb decisions off the court but when it comes time to lace it up his head is in the right place. I see this as a Derek Rose in need of redemption type of situation!

    Tucker at the 3? Hmmm. They still need someone who can dribble drive and produce offense at the 3. That’s why house or Gordon always filled this spot. If boogie starts then pj goes to the bench.
