    Not really a star player but I love the idea of Avery Bradley playing next to Harden I think he is the perfect PG to pair Harden with.

    Paul George

    Him and harden would form the most potent wing combo since lbj/Wade and maybe a little better since Wade was injured a lot during those years.

    Agree with Bradley, but I would put him at SG and Harden at the 3. I think Harden would be even deadlier at the 3, and Bradley could defend quicker players while we move Harden onto bigger players.

    Watching Kyrie ... We need someone to push the ball up the floor and finish...Lowry used to do that. James walks the ball up way too much.

    Kyrie would be great, we'd be the worst defensive backcourt in the NBA.

    Kyrie these past 3 games proved why it's impossible to win alone.

    Cousins because he is one of the few players in the league that would put Harden in his place.

    I think we should sell high on Capela as well. I'm just not sure which teams would want him. I'd do Trevor + Capela + somethingish to the Hawks for Paul Millsap though, but that's just highway robbery for the Rockets. Only thing that sucks about Millsap is that his contract ends next season because he is absolutely going to opt out if he has another tremendous season again.


    Not sure who from that list I'd want though. Boogie is a bit over rated. Whiteside is an unknown to me to be honest. I don't know how to feel about him. Derozan would be plain stupid. Love would be a major liability on defense despite having all the offensive tools to be a great second option, Horford is iffy. Don't know who on that list would be a good fit other than Millsap honestly. Teague seems solid, but we'd still be weak. Jury is out on Conley. Lmao at Beal. Millsap really is the best option. Drummond won't be the guy we can build around since he'll never be DPOTY caliber. I guess one of Sap or Horford.

    I'd add MKG to the list though. I'd definitely trade Ariza for MKG. Who cares if he seems injury prone. Take that freaking risk. He has that Green/Leonard/Gobert defensive potential. Maybe even add Noel too. I'd be more inclined to get a young player much like you. Mario had a rough season, but the potential he has could be a bit scary.
