    I’d still love to get someone good for the MLE. Otherwise yeah resign KCP and Dwight maybe Morris and Boogie.

    Who we know we have:
    Lebron
    AD
    Schroder
    Kuzma
    Caruso
    THT
    Cook

    If everyone opts out an leaves and we scramble to find players, the first 5 guys on that list are enough to make us a contender.

    The next best thing besides Harden going to BKN is him remaining with HOU disgruntled. LMFAO this is great.

    A new GM is likely to get robbed on the Harden trade ... You never get equal value in return in theis kind of deal anyways

    The only thing that makes this less than perfect is that Amphony bolted. Could have been great watching him and Haren implode.

    we may need the MLE to keep guys. just depends on a lot of other things.

    i don't disagree with houston's approach. their new gm has to live with these moves, and he might not work again if he doesn't play it right.

    that said, their hardline stance on westbrook (wanting something good in return) was pretty laughable, so it was wise to softly back off that. they have to think about whether they want kevin love or john wall or just take their lumps and reduce some salary burden (by moving him to ny, for example). you're not getting picks and prospects for westbrook at this point.

    and if all harden gets you is picks and prospects, you've done it wrong.

    i wish morey had to stay and clean up his mess. he gets to skate and be treated as a genius again. which, btw, he is--a genius at self-promotion. he's not a basketball or management genius, though.

    I bet Pelinka and the scouting department is zoning in one of these picks.

    Let's see what our boys can pull off tonight

    Lavine, he can probably get. Or maybe Gordon from ORL. No chance at Beal. He will cost more assets that Harden, I think. Factor in age and what Holiday went for. He'll cost them Simmons and the draft pick haul NO got.

    if that's the case, then it has to be philly or bust for harden

    what other team would be willing to give up a star? simmons is the best talent they'd be able to get in return

    Ainge might be trying to get Harden. This might finally be the year he cashes in all those picks. Makes too much sense

    Kemba or Brown + 4 picks should get it done.
