Pistons Hindsight: James Harden

[Warspite]

OKC would then be tradeing Monroe away in this offseason.

That offer ws way to rich to Harden and IMHO it still although harden has improved a ton.

We wouldnt have needed to include Monroe.

Prince, Knight, Singler, 2013 1st Top 5 protected for Harden

That's also a far better package than just Kevin Martin and Toronto's 12th overall

That's the trade we should have made
- instead of Bobcats (BG+1st) for unnecessary cap space in a year it doesnt matter

We would have been:

Stuckey / Harden / SF / Monroe / Drummond

Yeah a Harden/Monroe/Drum big 3 would have us set.

Harden is exactly what we need.

Oh well

OKC got a away with murder on that trade (if they get their draft picks right), Houston got what they needed too and were smart with cap money. Close to equal as it gets.


OP your original offer would have left us in 2000 Pistons mode and no one would want to sign with us other than whoever would sign with us now aka no Howard and Paul.

[Han Solo]

Monroe is over-hyped. Sell high before people across the league realize he can't defend a bit.

We couldn't trade out 2013 first rounder at the time.

Side note-

Comboguardcity is the 2nd best name i've seen on these boards. I and1 all your posts off the strength of that name alone lol
