yea @cyberx, Shams, Mark Berman, Woj and basically everyone with a brain says there is no way Harden is traded this year. It makes zero sense. These are rumors trying to rock the boat.
Lol, is this Nets package even acceptable for a Bradley Beal? Put some respek on Harden’s name. this is 26 yo, always injured Levert and a moldy mayo sandwich on untoasted bread for James Harden, an MVP
You know i'm not opposed to rebuild, for me we won't be able to avoid that cause i don't see Harden resiging, and starting the process early would be better in the long run, but still, yeah, this trade is just ass. It's literally like moving James for i don't know...Turner, Brogdon, Warren and Lamb. Imagine trading an undisputed top 5 player in the league for that.
Can't rebuild until next year. we literally have to use this year as a final test. If it works, awesome, sign Harden and move on. If it doesn't work? Cool, we will have our draft pick in 2022, tank then. AD got a king's ransom in his last year of his contract. Harden is much better than AD. It's like trading for LeBron.
I’m not against trading away harden(and Westbrook) but every trade scenario has been a loser. This is depressing.
I'd be fine with this too assuming we can put a serious team out there and not just Harden and the 4 extras that can't even dribble like 5 years ago.
I'd take 2020 Harden w/ anyone . We are going to shock the NBA. I'm telling you. I want everyone to circle back. Only thing that can **** this is up is the Fertita family not fixing this. Silas is going to be head and shoulders above MDA. Harden is the best player in the NBA on offense. Top 3 seed, WCF minimum if Harden is here.
I agree. If Harden gets traded we only want players in return that will make us one of the bottom four teams in the league for at least the next three years. Lots of picks and trashy players is all we need. Nothing wrong with a proper rebuild every now and then.
We have the best offensive player in the NBA. WE have the first real complete coaching staff in the Harden era. We have two top defenders in the NBA in PJ and RoCo. Eric will bounce back or be traded. Russ will bounce back or be traded. House will bounce back or be traded. One of JaeSean Tate or Bruno Caboclo will surprise us and earn rotational minutes like McLemore did last year. We are an MLE level center and some minimum level depth gambles away from being a complete team.
On second thought that Nets package would be fair for Westbrick. It would give us excellent depth along with solid young talent around Harden to really help us. Too bad Russ isn’t a good fit there. If KD comes back even at 90% of what he was and Kyrie can stay healthy I don’t see the Nets really having a need for a 3rd star. That’s a deep and talented team that I’d favor to win the East as is.
