3 in a row.
At least Harden hasn't made it known that he will only play for one of two teams.Enzo The Baker said:
I'll be interested to see who tanks their value more between him and Kawhi when it's all said and done.

6 straight games with 10 or fewer turnovers and tonight they only had 4.
I like what I am seeing from all of the young guys.
Lonnie. He is being more aggressive and finishing at the rim better. Two straight games with 20+ points and he is improving on defense. Who was it that said he was going to be a bust?
No I was actually referring to MookieBlaylock. He never gave Lonnie a chance.Enzo The Baker said:jteagle said:

Me. I didn't say a bust per se. But I did say that if he didn't develop this year I wouldn't see him in the nba that much longer. Primarily due to his lack of confidence and getting in his own head. I'm glad he's been showing good stuff this season and is proving me wrong so far.
We didn't get a superstar, but we got 8 picks and Oladipo. Pretty great salvage, Harden's antics consideredGuitarsoup said:At least Harden hasn't made it known that he will only play for one of two teams.Enzo The Baker said:

But Harden's a terrible teammate, disappears in the playoffs, and is generally disliked.
Siakam and filler is probably the best they will get at this point. No one is going to trade a star+5 picks for his fat ass.
More than I thought they would get. Dipo isn't quite the same player he was a few years ago, but that's a decent haul depending on the protections and stuff.canadiaggie said:We didn't get a superstar, but we got 8 picks and Oladipo.

Compare that to the Kawhi trade - Kawhi and Danny Green for Demar, Poetl, and the draft choice that turned into Keldon Johnson.jteagle said:
Interesting...they got alot of picks but spread out over 7 years. That could be a slow rebuild.

If the Nets implode or have injury issues, those picks become super valuable super quick.jteagle said:

On the pick swaps, are the Rockets assured of getting the better of the two picks?Guitarsoup said:If the Nets implode or have injury issues, those picks become super valuable super quick.jteagle said:

Yeah, I know. He is still young so I hope that he will eventually make something. They need to send him to the G-League bubble and let him get more playing time and then spend the rest of the time in the weight room.Enzo The Baker said:
Now Luka on the other hand...
Yep, they hold the option.jteagle said:On the pick swaps, are the Rockets assured of getting the better of the two picks?Guitarsoup said:If the Nets implode or have injury issues, those picks become super valuable super quick.jteagle said:
