re: Rorhbach speculates Harden to Pels in one of many scenarios

quote:

Boston could destroy that package. They could trade Brown, Hayward, Williams, 3 1sts this year (14, 26, 30) and a future 1st (2022) for Harden and Gordon.. Houston gets to dump Gordon and a tons of assets.. Boston has a monster trio (Walker, Harden and Tatum) and would be a contender for the next 2-3 years..

There is no way Boston would trade a controlled asset like brown, who has yet to hit his potential, and trade for Harden. He's borderline untouchable and that leaves them vulnerable still against elite big men. Their current setup with patience or making a trade for a big man would make them contenders for 5+ years.

Now if you say Washington with beal? Philly with Simmons? Indy with sabonis? Sure
