    Confusing post by What. Maybe just a troll post.

    Morey said he considered Harden to be a foundation piece. I think that means he views him as an important part of the puzzle. I don't see anything wrong with that statement, and I don't see where Morey is implying Harden is going to be the next Lebron.

    James Harden is 23.

    Battier had no upside coming to the Rockets. The move was to complement Tmac and Yao and not to wait around for a player like Rudy Gay to develop.

    Harden has gobs of upside coming to Houston. The Rockets still have flexibility and have a player that's so young that he's younger than some of the prospects they have on the team right now.

    Best year as a pro? Yeah, his 3rd year as a pro playing a 6th man role.

    Morey believes Harden was already playing at an all-star level at age 22, and that means he has the potential to become a superstar.

    I agree with him.

    Don't need to tell me twice. I've been living in my bomb shelter for 2 days now.

    Closer to 17 points, at 49 FG% and 39 3PT%, also a ridiculous TS%. Also 4 rebounds and 4 assists, also 1 steal, also 6th man of the year. Also 3rd season in the NBA.

    Oh wait I forgot, you're a Grizzlies troll. Don't have anything to look forward to for your team so you come and downplay ours? I could bet you would be singing a different tune if you were the team to land Harden instead.

    You realize he was on the floor with Westbrook and Durant right? Two volume shooters. He has the ability to average a lot more than 16.

    He's 23 and improving? He is also the 3rd best shooting guard in the NBA?

    This guy reminds me of that one fool that called into 790 this morning saying Harden will never get better or something

    What could be crying when Harden shows the world he is on Durant's level. ;)

    I think I'm being conservative in saying that he will average 22 pts a game while still being one of the most efficient sgs in the league. And if he becomes a volume shooter and forgets about efficiency, he can be a top 5 scorer in the league.

    Comparing Shane Battier to Harden? what, you're just jealous.

    Harden is about to show the world that he's Gay.

    The best part about all of this is that Morey clearly did NOT state ANY of this. He stated that we are NOT Championship contenders right now, but that Harden is a great building piece. He actually SPECIFICALLY stated that in his press conference. Either this is massive trolling, or you're just really, really bad at comprehension and listening, what.

    I knew I had the OP blocked for a reason. Just further cementing his reputation as one of the worst posters on ClutchFans.

    The best part is he begins with "If I was a Rockets fan...."

    You obviously are not. And you obviously also have some pretty evident disorganized speech patterns....go get that checked out.

    He's a Grizzlies fan who has actually stated that Memphis is a better and safer city than Houston (LOL!).
