Really looking forward to the Wiggins + #2 + Minny pick + 8 first round picks + 8 Swaps for Harden.

It's going to lead to a new Stepien rule.

FYI, Harden can't veto a trade here. The most he can do is pull an Iggy and refuse to show-up until he's eligible to be traded again. Which is all the more baffling if they do indeed gift him to Brooklyn for scraps.

Houston would be **** moronic to accept that Brooklyn offer. I mean since we’ve traded for Holiday I’ve seen some writers and “experts” refer to him as a “star guard” which I think is somewhat accurate and misleading at the same time but for the same media to justify Levert Dinwiddie and Allen in the same regard is just infuriating honestly. How can GMs be so heavily influenced by it is even more astounding.

Brooklyn’s package for Harden would’ve gotten them Jrue Holiday if we are comparing value imho. No **** way 1 of the greatest offensive players in the sports history still in his prime should be traded for that nonsense.

Houston should be looking at Philly not BKN for this trade. Simmons, whoever that recent G high pick who's barely played, then tack on some firsts. You at least get a legit AS level player who's young who you can build around. Attempt to build their team in the Bucks mold of surrounding Simmons with shooters and let him attack the rim.

Harden to Boston would be hilarious. He’d hate it, Celtics fans would hate him and Simmons/Russillo would have heart attacks. Please make it happen.

Yea something like LeVert/Dinwiddie/Prince/Allen/several picks for Harden/McLemore would be good for Houston imo. Would have to hear what else is out there.

That's the only package I'd consider if I were HOU.

If there ever was a player for a GM to take a stand against/refuse to trade him to a super team, I'd love to see it be HOU against Harden.

This would be the most do something for the sake of doing something trade in NBA history.

Would you think that would be a good offer for Giannis?

Would Giannis be voicing similar wishes?

Edit: I also think Giannis is worth more just generally.

Just when the bucks upgrade a 65 win team the nets might blow that and the bucks title hopes right out of the water by getting harden and only giving up those guys.
I don't get why no Philly would much rather have embed or Simmons and Harris than the nets garbage what the hell is that new GM of Houston doing

I'm surprised ORL hasn't offered up something for Westbrook yet.

So a team should not seek out the highest possible value because the player voiced he'd prefer a certain team?

The Nets package is just awful. Would be one of the worst deals made for a star ever.
