@TheSteinLine

The Rockets are pursuing a trade package from the 76ers that would be headlined by Ben Simmons and Tyrese Maxey, league sources say



Looks like Houston is done with fatty.

Rockets let this thing get nuclear and lost some leverage

Harden on Philly is going to be interesting, IMO

Simmons has maintained that Philly should stand their ground with offering Simmons and that's it, tell Houston "frick you, where else will you get a better offer".

I’ve been begging for this duo. Far more interesting than Harden going to Brooklyn imo

Interesting to see who gets to the buffet first. Embiid looks soft in the mid section too.

I’d be tempted to one up that.

Make Houston give up any available picks or pick swaps (I think OKC has most of them) as part of it if they start trying to get indignant about the offer.

What picks?

No team is getting harden+picks. The rockets would be better off not doing anything

Well as of now, Harden is tanking for a team which doesn’t even own its own draft picks.

So I don’t think riding that horse is necessarily a better option.

I also don’t think Simmons for Harden plus picks is a realistic trade scenario

Philly is winning a harden for Simmons straight trade

you can find basically any team in the NBA would be willing to trade for harden straight up so good luck with that

I think the biggest question is will this board continue to hate and obsess over the Rox after Harden and Boom are gone

The answer is probably

Boom stanning some Eastern Conference team won’t have the same flavor for sure
