I understand boogie is upset, and he has the right to be. But this is not about him. Harden wanted out before boogie and all even joined the team. this is a ownership issue stemming from d’antoni and morey departure.


WBB, there are posts from you after the Westbrook-wall trade talking about how harden worked out with wall and really wanted him in Houston, so he could finally have his championship robin.

quote:

The two teams harden had on his list - bkn and phi.


And Boston.

And Miami.

And Milwaukee.

And Portland.



quote:

The two teams going hard for him - bkn and phi.


Brooklyn going so hard they are offering even less for harden than the pelicans got in return for jrue holiday.

Philadelphia going so hard they are not even sure it’s worth parting with Ben Simmons to get harden.

This is not about coach Silas, John Wall, none of them.


Nah, it’s about the most selfish player in the nba. Right WBB?

Simmons And picks has been Always part of the deal. Now they are Discussing adding thybulle and maxey.

If Houston wants all of BKNs picks and swaps, they will get lesser players.

just depends on what package they decide they want.

They are getting a haul either way.

The Nets have prepared a package to Houston for Harden featuring all of their four future first-round picks and three future pick swaps, multiple sources said. This would place significant pressure on the team to win immediately and the potential partnership between two former star teammates in Harden and Kevin Durant. Nets general manager Sean Marks and his front office have built an impactful culture around their players, and have been able to keep strong future flexibility in the process. For the Nets, there could be hesitation to mortgage future assets with this type of ferocity. Brooklyn does not owe any extra firsts or have any owed to it, so it has four firsts and three swaps available.

It is levert Allen dinwiddie and every pick and every swap

Or Simmons thybulle (maxey) and less picks.

Reporting w/ @ESPN_MacMahon : James Harden has recently indicated to Houston he'd be open to a trade to Philadelphia or other contenders. So far, no substantive talks with Sixers. Daryl Morey's been adamant he wants to keep his two young stars. -Woj

What else do you want to be wrong about today WBB?

So a lesser haul than the pelicans got for jrue holiday.

Not one worthy of a top 5-10 player in the league WBB. And certainly not one worthy of “the best player in the league”

WBB, never once have I run from an argument. Can you say the same?

Wait, you think you actually called this right? Are Allen and Dinwiddie in Houston now?

quote:

Damn near impossible to have pegged it better than that.


You mean besides going 1/3 on the players actually going to Houston in the trade? Given the ridiculously low threshold you require to dub someone the “best player in the league”

Let me guess. You think a borderline all star still recovering from injury, 2 end of bench guys, and 1 high draft pick, and 3-7 draft picks that by no means are guaranteed to be high picks is a haul worthy of the “best player in the league”?

Simmons not available



I pegged every single player and pick the nets have to give out to Labd him. Except for the guy out for the season w a player option. ( ie likely HOU didnt want him )

Show me where I said Simmons wasn’t available WBB.

You pegged 1/3 players WBB. 33%. You know, like hardens career 3pt percentage in the playoffs?

So you didn’t know dinwiddie was out for the year when you made that latest failure of a prediction WBB?

Well then you believed the most laughable tweet of the whole offseason.

The market from day one was to get back an all star. A young asset and picks.

That is what Philly offered.

And even that wasn’t enough. CC went with 4 firsts and oladipo instead.

The laughable tweet that said morey wanted to keep embiid and Simmons with the 76ers? If that wasn’t true then why didn’t the trade for Simmons happen weeks ago WBB?

They failed on 2/3 of those requirements then didn’t they.

Maybe. More than a month after woj tweeted that.

And let me guesss, you think that is somehow better.

The best asset going to Houston in that trade is easily the Cleveland 2022 first. Oladipo is not currently an all star level player and in the final year of his contract. The other 3 firsts are no guarantee to be high draft picks, with the 2022 first pretty much guaranteed not to be.

The most valuable return for the “best player in the league” is a single top 5 draft pick.

A players value is what someone is willing to pay for him.

Philly was willing to give up simmons thybulle and picks per shams.

All star, young asset, picks.

The return that they were getting from day 1 is what was offered. The passed on that for a diffeeejr deal that they favoured even more.

Has it been said that Nets won't win a title this year? I'll say it:

They won't win a title.

So then how is James harden “the best player in the league” when the nets don’t even value him enough to give up Durant or Kyrie WBB?

All star, young asset, picks.


Who is the all star and who is the young asset going to Houston in this trade WBB?

quote:

The return that they were getting from day 1 is what was offered.


This is another definite lie from you WBB. If that was true why didn’t the rockets accept that offer on day 1? As it is they ended up accepting a lesser offer than what the nets originally started with because they didn’t get Allen or dinwiddie.
