Exactly we know damn well harden would leave a franchise that let's him make gm decisions to be a 2nd fiddle to another guy lmao. Come on guys u can obvious tell this is a cover for the media, so they wont have to address the fact kwahi wanted to play with harden firstvlil
Then you had to believe that a organization would get rid of the one guy that has gotten better every year n is actually underpayed lol. I guy that plays every game n can get scrubs atleast past the 1st. Come on media. U atleast gotta report believable things
clippers acquiring harden is equally possible as harden acquiring the clippers. funny that PG was actually Kawhi's 5th choice. KD, butler, harden, beal were all ahead of him.
Ring ring. Michael Winger: hey Darl Morey: What do you want Michael Michael Winger: Will you trade Har Click. Michael Winger: Darl , Darl …. you there ?! Dial Tone. Calls back Operator: The number you dialed is no longer in service.
The only thing that makes sense is if Clippers thought Rockets were in the rebuilding process. Otherwise, they actually thought they have trading pieces for Harden?! Lou, Bev and Harell are still not good enough combined for Harden.
Daryl laid out this 'Everyone is available, Harden for the right price' type of circumstance. It was tough because other teams were not willing to give up major assets.
To the fans that don't notice how hard it is to carry a team to respectable seeding year in and year out... You don't get it.
Here's another article saying the Clips made a play for Harden, this time naming Sam Amick as the source. It also confirms what we all knew anyway, that Murray never took it very seriously: https://www.nbcsports.com/bayarea/warriors/nba-rumors-clippers-tried-trade-james-harden-bradley-beal "Before the Clippers called the Thunder about George, LAC inquired about the availability of James Harden and Bradley Beal, The Athletic's Sam Amick and Jovan Buha reported Tuesday, citing league sources. Neither the Rockets or the Wizards were willing to discuss trading their star, so the Clippers moved on to the Thunder and landed George for a package of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Danilo Gallinari and a boatload of draft picks. The Rockets then pounced on the suddenly rebuilding Thunder, trading Chris Paul, two draft picks and two pick swaps to OKC for Russell Westbrook, getting Harden an in-his-prime star to lead the Rockets' charge to supplant the Warriors atop the Western Conference."
When Harden said "him or me" really what he meant was... "HIM" and so it was. This is Harden's team. This is Harden's city. Dude's buying soccer teams here, bout to build more than just a basketball roster.
Clippers was offering danilo ganario and zubac and kidd-gilcrist for harden. MULTIPLE SAUCES CONFIRMED!
