The super Harden to Portland thread + The Big Blockbuster

[Fez Hammersticks]

We gotta go all in for Draymond!

Houston’s price tag is astronomical even with all the turmoil.

That sounds like what I would have wanted for Harden if I were Houston. A good young player, 4 1sts, and no super huge contracts.

Edit: I would have kept LeVert

 

[B-Roy]

whoa

Well that was unexpected.

“The list of teams left sucking hind teat in the Harden trade includes the Portland Trail Blazers.”

Not sure what to pay attention to. The trade stuff, or the impeachment vote.

Shit I still have work

Maybe we can just expand the trade and move Trump to Russia for a bunch of Vodka.

 

[RR7]

Wow, oladipo for levert. Guess Trent and stuff wasn't gonna get it done!

only one of those really makes any difference. (Basketball)

True, but I’m still a bit interested in civics.

Meh.... I'm really not convinced he was the piece that would have gotten us over the top. He doesn't solve our problems. Maybe if he was a really good defender.

I was really just hoping we might get involved as a 3rd team facilitator. LeVert would have been nice.

 

[B-Roy]

LeVert sucks. 30% usage rate 51 TS%. He's a poor mans Westbrook.

 

[e_blazer]

Kyrie, KD and Harden. That just screams, “Throw me the eff’n BALL!”

 

[BlazerBeav]

Well one thing is clear: CJ would have been a HUGE overpay.

 

[Natebishop3]

Kyrie, KD and Harden. That just screams, “Throw me the eff’n BALL!”

Kyrie = spinning off the planet
KD = fresh off a injury
Harden = ate all the donuts

Indy was gonna lose Vic for nothing. This is something

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Dray.

Mond.

 

[illmatic99]

Nets need a center in the absolute worst possible way with only DeAndre Jordan and Jeff Green available.

 

[calvin natt]

I mean, if you are a team in disarray like the Nets, with Kyrie missing in action, ego KG, in Brooklyn/NYC, and you really need to settle things down and get some chemistry and cohesion, you go get James Harden. Right?

 

[Natebishop3]

This is what I think of when I think of Kyrie right now

 

[B-Roy]

Yeah I just mean this in the context of people that were mad we didn't try to get him.

 

[B-Roy]

Well one thing is clear: CJ would have been a HUGE overpay.

It sounds like a lot of people hate this trade for the Rockets, but the Nets gave up 6 years of team control. No one knows what those picks/swaps will be at the end. Durant and Harden will not be all-nba players by then. Not to mention with Durant/Harden/Kyrie they have no ability to add depth anymore.

 

[Natebishop3]

Dray.

Mond.

Le

Bron

I can just throw out names that won't happen too.

 

[Hoopguru]

No way Houston would have sent him to Morey.
