    He'd make the Nuggets worse.

    That is your dream scenario and not Morey's....where did u see this.

    If I were Morey, I would go after Green, Jabari, Eason or Sengun.

    Idk what we could send back that would make sense...

    Martin, Christopher, Garuba? No way we include future firsts...

    Starting
    Harden - Green - Eason - Smith - Lopez?
    Amen - Porter - Whitmore - Tate - Sengun
    Bench - Washington + Vet minimums

    holy crap. I think FVV is a better fit with where we are in the rebuild but if Harden wants to opt in for $35 and goes to Houston wouldn't that preserve a big chunk of cap space for next year, with better free agents?

    How else do you make a sign and trade work? Regardless let’s see what happens before jumping to conclusions

    Sure, just speculation as always, nothing horrendous.

    Im not vouching for anyone but he is in fact a journalist for ESPN. That can’t be disputed.

    I think he said he was just checking on Knicks interest in Harden. He wasn't confirming it.

    Not a capologist but I think draft picks also count as money if I am not mistaken.

    Those rookie deals are worth something because they were Top 3 picks.

    This guy is garbage. Check out his tweets. They might as well be spam.

    And that's why Harden will get a lot of backers on a 1-year deal.

    This actually ****s the 76ers a lot more because they can't demand a lot from a Harden who can simply sign a 1-year deal with another team.

    No he isn’t. He just put that in his bio. You or I could do the same.

    Are you talking about his political thoughts? Whether I agree or not with any of that, at the end of the day he still works for espn.

    Jalen and Jabari I meant. But it is all moot if Harden is traded somewhere else on a 1 year deal.

    I’m fairly confident the rockets are not trading picks or rookie deal players for Harden
