    Why, when they have Seth Curry and Tyrese Maxey? And presumably they'd trade Tobias Harris for CJ, and then they'd have a glut of guards and be even thinner up front.

    Really hope Philly don't trade for Harden. I like their team, and they're fine as-is.

    I'm sure Harden reuniting with Durant will go at least as well as Harden reuniting with Westbrook

    It takes more than 2 good players to win a championship. Closer to 8-9 players. So can a backcourt of Dame/Cj win a championship? Of course it can if the other players are really good and compliment their skills.

    Probably if they do, they don't want one who's currently AWOL with rumors that he could retire at any second.

    Maxey doesn't have a three ball as yet. I like him but he's not there yet. If they played CJ along side Simmons, thats potent. Philly is going to need 3 point shooters if they keep Si. Morey knows he's needs shooters to compete against the best.

    We gotta go all in for Draymond!

    Houston’s price tag is astronomical even with all the turmoil.

    That sounds like what I would have wanted for Harden if I were Houston. A good young player, 4 1sts, and no super huge contracts.

    Edit: I would have kept LeVert
