    Or perhaps a combination of the two. Maybe seeing Henderson get instant minutes and seeing Crabbe's emergence disturbed Harkless' confidence as much as his recent poor shooting has.

    So... now Harkless is completely out of the rotation? What's with him? The guy has the talent - if he had, say, Wesley's determination, he could be Paul George. So WTF?

    Harkless seems to be back in the doghouse.

    I laugh at whoever gives Meyers a max contract.

    Harkless is a project...he hasn't done enough to steal a regular rotation spot yet but he has plenty of time

    yeah and he earned the trip to the doghouse with his crappy play he had a good chance with lot of minutes for quite a while and showed nada, contrast Vonleh who is improving with his minutes

    Seems like Harkless makes absolutely nothing happen on the court.

    Harkless is behind the curve when it comes to team ball...he tends to want to be an ISO player and that's not working with this roster

    Up until last night...Hendo had been playing well and deserved more minutes. Between he and Crabbe, not a lot of wing minutes for Harkless.

    Also if Hendo is on the block, they need to showcase him a bit...Hendo is a better player than Harkless right now..Harkless has a huge upside with his youth and talent but like I said, he's not playing a team game enough his last few outings

    Trade Harkless for what? He has no current value and potential. Extend him on a cheap deal everyday of the week.

    I agree on not trading Hendo though. He was meant to go to a team on the playoff bubble and that what we are.

    A tenner says he does. He has shown promise through December. He is still super young and none of the scrubs have been getting time lately. He would be super cheap and we won't have a draft pick coming in to take his place.

    I'm all for it.
    Let's just hope some dumb GM won't offer him 7mil' a year.

    I'd be surprised if someone offers him 700,000.
