Harden only makes sense if we are trying to be in win now mode. I'd just let the rookies develope have a shot at wemby in the draft, pick up cheap vets here and there.
How does he come back to same team and roster he gave up on?
There's no split. City does not want him back. We had him at his best and then worst š¢
can you imagine if the rockets get all those picks from nets, plus get harden back, lol that would hit hard, nets must feel dumb af
Would welcome Harden back with open arms. Its only right he retire a rocket. Now bring him back on how much is the question.
Starting lineup as follows
1 Harden
2 Green
3 Brown
4 Smith Jr
5 Wemby
He has huge influence on strip club culture in Houston šššš
Anyone That Wants James FRAUDEN Back Is A š¤” From Office To Fans… Then Listen To That š¤Ŗ That Aint Never Made A Bucket In A Pick Up Game Talkin About FRAUDEN Given Sum Crappy Shoes To A Handyman š Str8 š¤”… U Mean The Same Guy That Came Out Of Shape To A Season… Same Guy That Was Always At Strip Clubs… Same One That Had Ur Team Losing Past 3 Years Because He Wanted Out… Yea U Non NBA Knowledge š¤” He Would Be A Bad Influence On The Youth… He Was Allowed To Do What He Wanted When He Wanted & Never Even Got Us To A Finals…. Go Sit In The NBA Dungeon Forever… Like James FRAUDEN & Freaky Ime Would Gel ššš Ime Wants Defense… Man Go To The Dungeon ASAP No Dinner Either
BK trippin, no thanks, contract wont be an issue, we have plenty of cap space and he also said he don't want to sign long term contracts going forward. However, Harden is not gonan help these young guys grow. hes also going to make it about him instead of the team. The young players are the ones that are going to take this team to the next level. The sooner you develop them the sooner the Rockets will be a contender. Hes also going to hurt the chances of us getting other stars in here. A lot of players like Jaylen Brown, Khris Middleton will not want to play with Harden. KPJ and Jalen Green are already issues. Harden gonna make things worse with them. You might as well trade those 2 if thats the case, which might be a bad idea anyways. No more g league players please, please don't draft Scoot Henderson. G league players aren't about learning to be a better player, they're there to get paid. College players are much more prepared for the NBA. If we draft Victor, you ABSOLUTELY cannot bring Harden back. Yes, he might get us back to the playoffs and gives instant gratification and win more games, but long term you're setting your young players back. You gotta learn to win the right way and through the young guys thats gonna be here long term. You have a new coach and hes trying to change the culture, Harden is going to be an issue. Jalen Green and KPJ are gonna feel even more entitled instead of playing basketball the right way. Celtics will win the next 2. I'll take Jaylen Brown over Harden. Jaylen will want out of Boston after this season.
I'm down for James harden return if it doesn't mean jaylen brown won't come at all cause he wants his own team
He's not returning if we don't win the lottery and get Wembenyama
Iām not a huge fan of Hardenās mainly because of the way he forced himself out of Houston (donāt like any of the athletes that do that just because they want to play with their friends). However, I believe Harden will be a perfect fit on this team. Hopefully being a few years older he has matured and maybe be a good influence on the young guys off the court and not trying to run the organization (allegedly). But having Harden would allow Green and Porter to play off the ball more. He is an unselfish playmaker who could really sr these guys up for good open looks and would also space the floor. Plus as the guys said in the video, he can still take over when the offense is stagnant. Bring back Harden and a few other vets and you have a playoff team
PASS!!!!
F harden
Shave the beard and bring him back! Lol
they would have to trade KPJ too
