I would say Broussard is equally as unreliable as Bucher.

So I don’t think anyone knows.

Besides me who reported Kawhi to the Lakers first on here.

Adrian Wojnarowski @wojespn This isn't the free agency that New York fans imagined, but Knicks gathering group of serious-minded, professional players: Ellington, Bobby Portis, Taj Gibson and Julius Randle. No stars, but Randle's young and talented. It's a hard-playing, competitive group for David Fizdale.

Nate Silver @NateSilver538 Another term for "serious-minded, professional players" is "replacement-level talent". All of these guys are replacement-level players except Randle.

How much these guys are worth next year per 538 CARMELO projections / how much the Knicks are paying them. They're paying $65m for $33m of value:

Randle: $19.2m / $21.0m
Bullock: $5.4 / $10.5
Ellington: $5.1 / $8.0
Gibson: $2.1 / $10.0
Portis: $1.4 / $15.5
TOTAL: $33.2 / $65.0

If harden played in the east he would have won the title this year with ease. And he wouldn’t have had to sit out 25 games to be able to play in the playoffs either.

Except he was outplayed by harden against golden state.

There is no GM in the nba who willl take kawhi for 60 games over harden for 80. None.

Well when you count for the playoff games, the number of games played becomes much closer.

So Harden would have beaten the Raptors and Warriors? He couldn’t get it done against the Warriors, but he could have done it for sure against he team who beat them to win a title. That’s delusion, Harden will never win a title.

Why do I have to have watched the Rokits for the entire season to know those stats are gawd awful?

I know Austin Rivers. I saw him hit some timely shots in the playoffs. He seems to play better in bigger spots, which is one of the best things that can be said about a player. But the entire product isn't good.
Because if you actually watched the games you’d know why Rockets fans are extremely pleased with getting him back, especially on that contract. He helped them win games.

I’m a stats guy. But he was better than his stats show. He helped them win games no matter what his box score numbers are.

When Houston played the warriors Durant and Thompson played nearly 500 minutes.. They didn’t even play 200 minutes vs Toronto. The version of gsw that Houston played and the version that TOR played was nothing alike.


Be honest, Did you even watch those two series?

Of course I did, so you’re saying Harden would have beaten the Raptors in the East and then beaten a beat up Warriors in the finals? Makes sense, but still what if’s thrown in there. Who knows if Klay and KD get hurt if they are playing a different team. I mean you’re basing your entire argument on Harden having to play in the opposite conference to have gotten lucky to win a title. He had his best shot 2 years ago, and Chris Paul got hurt and Houston couldn’t hit a 3 and they failed to get it done.
