Houston sports are bursting into flames.

So the Thunder are pretty much the Browns of the NBA right now. They have like 13 first td picks the next 4 years

Man, Nets would be stacked.

Considering the Bucks just traded a ridiculous haul for a mediocre player in Jrue Holiday, I’m interested to see what exactly it would take the Nets or anybody else to make the trade for Harden. You have to think the Raptors would try to make a play after what they did with Kawhi but that price may be too steep.

First thanks for starting this thread I was about to post in one of the other NBA threads

A couple of big trades so far with CP3 going to the Suns and Pelicans sending Jrue Holiday to the Bucks.

Bucks are going all in to keep Giannis. I personally don't think Jrue Holiday is worth half of this but what ever.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Besides the three future first-round picks going to New Orleans, there are also pick swaps included in the deal, per sources. All in all, this is shaping up to be a draft compensation package similar to New Orleans&#39; deal for Anthony Davis with Lakers. <a href="https://t.co/HbnLxzUI96">https://t.co/HbnLxzUI96</a></p>&mdash; Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) <a href="https://twitter.com/wojespn/status/1328559229926596608?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 17, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Thots and prayers to the strippers of Houston in these rough times.

Man. Harden wants out of Houston? After they dumped every meaningful player to build whatever that was around him?

I guess they still have Westbrook ROFL

They are probably going to get more too. Just picked up a 1st AND Kelly Oubre, Rubio and some Jags for old man Chris Paul. And I like Chris Paul but thats a great trade for the Thunder. Interesting if they flip Oubre later for picks. Looks like Schroder is going to the Lake Show too

But of course good NBA teams don't give 2 shits about draft picks.

LeMelo Ball #1 overall?

Does this mean we have to keep hearing stupidity from LaVar for the next several years?

:facepalm:

I don't love Holiday, but I'm not sure I'd call him mediocre at all. His numbers last season were really good and he's one of the best defenders at his position.

I hope so. Get Wiseman to the Warriors and profit.

Ball is the next Ricky Rubio. That's about it. Hes actually a really safe pick but teams are overestimated his potential. Great passer, inefficient scorer, avg shooter at best.

Will our new GM, Daryl Morey, be brave enough to trade Ben Simmons for Harden?? Word is my Sixers are on his list along with the Nets. If we get him and pair Harden with Embiid it would be one hell of a show at the Wells Fargo Center next season that's for sure :D

Doesn’t give a shit on D. Don’t forget that.
