    That's not the premise of this thread...

    The question is: Assuming Harden opts out of his $47M contract -> would you sign him to a $12M MLE deal?
    I would, but then I'd look to trade him as soon as it was legal.

    They're going to take Chet with the Laker's pick.

    Not a Harden fan, but he did learn to go to his left … eventually. MLE? No brainer. If he’s playing 16 with Dame and 16 with Hart … well, a swing who plays D and is switchable is needed anyway. His D won’t be that much worse than Simons, and he has far more gravity and overall O game. Again, not a fan, but paired with Dame is not the same as Westbrook or the absentee Kyrie Irving.
