Exactly... but evidently 77% of poll participants don't grasp the concept... everything/anybody is for sale/trade... at the right price... lol
No. End of story. Too much offensive firepower. Just needs to get his head on straight and put forth much more effort on defensive end. I have no doubt he will be better next season.
he disappeared in the playoffs on both ends. huge red flag. i'd trade him if the right offer came around, but only if we can get under the cap this summer to sign melo.
I would trade his sorry lazy ass in a heartbeat...well I would trade Milk hair first to get a NBA COACH (none-cheerleader coach-dressed up type),who can make Harden accoutabile on both end. Before figuring out what Harden truly is, you dont want to trade either piece of Harden's ass, just in case he may thrive in different system under another coach.
For the right return, yes. Anyone can be traded for the right return under the right circumstances. Harden is by no means untouchable. He is a high value commodity, but still a commodity. He has not played like the team's hero like Dwight has.
How did trading James Harden for pieces work out for OKC (a team he was less important on)? any takers?
Well having the best player in a series didn't of anything for us. I'm not saying trade just for anyone, but we could possibly have a lineup of: PG - Lowry SG - ??? SF - Melo PF - Love C - Howard I would definitely think about it and consider it.
If the return was right..... I am worried about his dedication. I wish we could trade Harden+Parsons+picks for John Wall and Brad Beal.
I wouldn't trade Harden who is a young and up coming commodity, but I would flip d12 for klove. Bev and ? Harden Parsons Love Asik Sounds alright could upgrade further, but this team would be super young and only improving!
Hurr Durr if we give Lin Harden's minutes, clearly he go linsanity again. Harden used to play decent D in OKC when he wasn't relied on to do as much as he does on offense. If we get Melo, I guarantee Harden will play tougher D. If offense takes 100% and Defense takes 100%, I'd say Harden has 125-150% to give, if he wasn't required to give 100% on offense, his defense would improve.
