If there’s any truth to this we should be trying to do whatever possible to make it happen. I know they have had beef with each other but both are Uber competitive and want to win. They both get critiqued for their play style and ability to win in the playoffs. I think having that in 2 mvp players will light a fire under their asses to prove everyone wrong, and that’s outside of the fact that they would be a great fit together.

Khris would have to be going out, and I would assume Donte too. Hopefully we could keep Brook. See if we can send DJ off for scraps and see if Ersan wants to come back on the min so he can finally get his ring with the Bucks.

Harden/Augustin
Jrue/Forbes/Merrill
Craig/Pat/Thanos
Giannis/Ersan/Nwora
Brook/Portis

I would not do Middleton + Holiday, but if we can get it done keeping Giannis and Jrue, lets go.

Anyone can claim "league sources". But it's something to talk about. I also posted this on the Giannis thread since Harden is also being discussed there.

Theoretically, could we land Harden and still fit a Holiday extension in?

Hope we get Harden. Get it done Horst.

Jrue, Harden, Giannis = Fear the Deer

(Nice picture off the internet)

Well, they have already built the best REGULAR SEASON team in the league STATS WISE .

Fixed it 4U. We were already the last 2 years ... we just rolled every dice we had to get Jrue.
I mean how much % do you give us to win the East ? And Harden is 90% coming to the East ... I give us something around 15% without even looking any game. We will see how this team works and if Sleeping Playoff Bud ever wakes the ef up

The only way I’d include Jrue and Khris is if we can get Giannis and Harden signed to extensions. When is it legal to even trade Jrue?

Thats actually not a bad idea because we could then shed salary until its just giannis and harden on the books and land one more star in FA

Heres the problem. This is so unlikely to happen, does it kill team chemistry for guys like khris finding out they are being included in talks? And poor ddv lol

I don't think it hurts team chemistry for guys to be involved in Basketball Rehab rumors.

You didn't fix a dang thing. Jrue has been terrific in the playoffs, and he replaces an all time playoff choker in Bledsoe. Also, being good in advanced stats is a good thing, because they directly correlates to winning. Trying to be anything else is just hoping for luck, and that not a plan.

Harden is a career 33% 3 point shooter in the playoffs. You've grossly overated his positive playoff impact.

Middleton, Brook and DDV for Harden and Tucker

I've read several people post this trade, and I'd do it in a heartbeat.

Jrue / Augustin / Adams
Harden / Forbes / Merrill
Pat / Craig / Nwora / Thanasis
Tucker / Wilson / Diakite
Giannis / Portis
