what's the market for him this year?
not sure $36M + next contract is much lower than whatever he could sign this summer
I don't think Harden is worth 36 million anymore. Pass.
Woj wouldn't be out there with he's being traded if that was the case. He'd just opt in and the news would be he's staying. The news is the Rockets didn't want him (they want FVV) and he doesn't want to be a FA cause all the teams that have cap space aren't contenders. So he only does this move if he's got one or two places he knows he wants to go.I wonder if the opt in simply puts him on the 76ers for another season.
It's gotta be LAC. It's not as much the fit with Brunson as much the fit with Thibs. NYK are a strong defensive team that plays hard all of the time, and I think frankly overachieves in the regular season, which is why they flame out come the playoffs. Harden doesn't play D and is wildly inconsistent in the playoffs. Thibs would have multiple heart attacks watching Harden defend for 82 games. And I just don't see renting Harden for 1 year being a real difference maker next season. The big shoe that may or may not drop is Dame. Dame in Philly, Miami or NYK instantly makes those teams the Eastern favorites. And because I hate all Philly and NY teams and like the Bucks and Nuggets, I'm praying Dame stays in Portland.Woj wouldn't be out there with he's being traded if that was the case.

I'm not sure he fits with Brunson and the Knicks but the Clips sure seem like a good fit in that they can send back multiple pieces to a win now team like the Sixers, and Harden can be the alpha still with Kawhi/PG
