Well, don't know how much more I can take of this shitty organization. They've been a complete joke of a franchise for as long as I have lived and when they had a chance to really make this team competitive, they turned it down.

Wizards turned down an essentially Beal/Singleton for Harden trade this summer. Ted Leonsis was too cheap to pony up for Hardens contract. Had they not made that inexcusable Okafor/Ariza trade...

I could go on. You would be looking at a Wall/Harden/Nene/Seraphin core with a shite ton of cap room. And now Love is having difficulty with the FO in Minnesota? Ugh. What could've been. The Wizards also drafted some Euro dud over Jae Crowder. Its one thing to root for a team that sucks, but to root for a sucky team that is cheap as shite and doesn't seem to care about winninh? Geez. F U Ted Leonsis. No wonder AOL failed.

On phone but a quick Google of Harden Wizards will result in the Wash Post article.

There's alot of rumors flowing around that Chicago is preparing for Love's FA in 2014. Love is supposedly very close with Rose.

Basically, Chicago would amnesty Boozer, and attempt to trade Deng sometime during the 2013/2014 season in the last year of his contract, and basically build the team around Rose, Love, and Noah.

Any trade involving Deng also probably involves Taj Gibson, despite the Bulls giving Gibson the 4 year extension after the season began.

Rip Hamilton is probably going to be traded this season sometime before the ASB.

And Love is pissed off at the TWolves Front Office yet again.

FWIW, I think Harden is way overrated. Nevertheless, he still would've improved the Wizards.

Seraphin is a guy that has had an awakening this year. I liked the original pick for him but was unsure if he would ever progress and adjust to the NBA game. He has definitely done that and become a great player. The Okafor/Ariza trade was a poor one that I guess he thought veteran leadership is what this team needed.

You could even go so far as to if he never makes that trade for Nene and holds onto McGee and later signs Love. Wall/Harden/Love/McGee core with a bench that includes Seraphin and Crawford. Singleton won't ever be more than a good hustle player and Beal won't ever reach Harden levels. No shot at Beal because I think he will become a good player, but Harden is a game changer
