Clippers, good luck with that. Westbrook and Harden are the most ball-dominant team of players ever assembled.

I give it an A. I think that unprotected 2028 pick will look really good in 5 years and they also got a pick swap on top of it.

Westbrook and Harden have played together before and they reached the NBA Finals.

They were also in their early 20s and had a guy named Durant on the team. I thought it was just Laker fans but I guess all southern Californian sports fans that are delusional.

They didn't give up "the farm." Also, when you're the only bidders you can't just give away future picks like that.

They were both kids in the NBA when that happened. Ever since then, they've never been back.

I'm not much for grading, but I think both teams did what they believe will help them. Sixers have a soft reboot, while the Clippers are going all-in.

My only critique is that I believe the trade should of happened before the start of the season.

What exactly is "the farm" to you?
They swapped some rotation pieces out and gave up future picks to do it

No one going out was a factor in their playoff chances

Morris hadn't played a single minute for them. Healthy scratch in every game.

Covington was playing 25 mpg and Batum <20 mpg.

^But Harden and Tucker will immediately fill these roles.

KMJ was in the rotation for only half the games.

Going forward, Clippers will play Zu at the 5, PG/Claw at the forwards, Harden/RW at the guards.

Bones, Norm, Plumlee, and now Tucker fills out the 8-man rotation until Mann is back.

And they still have Coffey, the 2 rookies Brown/Miller + 2ways Diabte/Primo for garbage time.

It's a full roster with everything mortgaged on the next 1-2 years, same as before this trade.

as Harden has said he is the system, the guy at this stage of his career can not play with multiple high usage players.
