    Absolutely.

    Goran
    Harden
    Jimmy Butler
    Harkless
    Bam

    is flat out nasty. It really is and Riley is no dummy hence the interest. Harden will be their first option and then you have Jimmy and Bam as defensive stalwarts.


    Goran is also a perfect fit next to harden as he can flat out shoot it and move off the ball

    Maybe if Harden wasn't wasting his time at strip clubs between games he would have had a better chance.

    What are you talking about?
    No one in the Western Conference could close out Golden St. They won the West 5 years in a row.

    And no team ever took them to 7.

    Even Lebron's teams.

    Only the Rockets.

    No he doesn't he fits as much as Westbrook does. I had high hopes for him after watching Summer work outs but everytime he shoots I am hoping it goes in. Harden needs a mf'n shooter at the 3 pt. A lillard, a cp3, a steph curry. A buddy hield, or even a trae young. If Houston is smart they take Wall's contract and a couple draft picks and they trade for a young pg that CAN shoot! Harden would definitely reconsider then! I don't have faith that John Wall is someone who can take over games!
    Christian Woods on the other has been and is amazing. Maybe Harden didn't need a pg. He just needed a big that could pass and do what a pg does. Obviously Boogie and Woods can both bring the ball up!
    Harden you have your Pau Gasol!

    What's the downside to the rockets just not honoring Harden's request and keeping him for 2 years? Realistically, in 2 years at 33 how many team with cap room would offer him the full max as we could? I can't see him turning down $50MM for $15MM from a contender. The only reason he turned down our $50/yr offer was so we could trade him (and he signs am extension at his new destination).

    Harden is testing the limits of his power, the rockets should test theirs. I see no downside to keeping him, unless a star becomes available for trade.
