Why should we beg James Harden, what should we do?

    If Green have a veteran point guard next to him, he would help him with his draft selection

    We have to spend the cap space on something. I think Amen might start on the bench if we do draft him.

    I gave it some thought but I just hope we do t draft him.

    I’d rather pick almost anyone else that will be available there or trade the pick.

    I like his passing, size and athleticism but offensively he just scares me. He will need to dominate the ball to be successful and right now he only does two things well…get to the rim and pass. He’s got no in between game, no floater, no deep range…hard no for me.

    Well in that case, here's a scenario where we keep it!

    I think he will be too raw to start. If Rockets draft him it should be with the expectation that it will be a project.
