PG for Harden. Who says no?
When can we trade PG?
Harden is literally willing to potentially kill himself and his teammates to get out of houston. All because Chris Paul held him accountable

Yeah, but hopefully Sheriff Jim is not representative of how most NBA players are handling their business.
Rockets players might have to call a Code Red on Jim if he keeps this stuff up...

Harden is a ****ing clown
I’ll hold on to him for nothing before I trade him for Brooklyn’s **** platter.
Doubt Brooklyn even wants to pay the ransom for Harden anyway
Simmons + pieces for Harden is coming. They’re just wasting everyone’s time before it’s announced.

Who said it has to be brooklyn? There were a few teams with offers but apparently Miami has moved on. Which was the whole point, the offers aren't gonna improve the longer you hold onto himI’ll hold on to him for nothing before I trade him for Brooklyn’s **** platter.

klutch doesn’t even want a part of that.
So you would rather watch him go out like that?

whew. embarrassing morning for the home squad.
absolutely not. there's only a few teams that should be in the mix and the pelicans should not be one of them. it'll be teams that are trying to capitalize on a relatively small window. most other teams are either too far away, or its the melo/knicks situation where you'd have to give up so much to get up that you gut the team and you're not much better off than before.
the only teams that should be interested imo are brooklyn, philly, clippers, warriors, bucks (screwed it by trading for jrue), and maybe denver imo.
I disagree with your definition of what is being professional, but don't disagree with your conclusion. his behavior off court really isn't new. he's legit been doing all the same clubbing for years. it's just amplified now because 1) we're in a global pandemic, 2) he doesn't even care about hiding it anymore, and 3) he's openly asked to be traded. his current behavior isn't acceptable, especially because of those 3 circumstances, but the point remains that the behavior isn't anything new and isn't anything that's precluded him from producing on court.
he's added to his game and improved every season, he's produced at a high level and made the rockets relevant every season, played in 613/646 (95%) of houston's games since being traded here in 2012-2013 in the era of load management, and has been among the league leaders in minutes played every season. he deserves the criticism he's getting for his recklessness right now, but if we're going to talk about his level of professionalism, you have to take the totality of his career into account. until this point, he's always showed up to work and been pretty good in doing so. he's not hassan whiteside, larry sanders, shawn kemp, andrew bynum etc.
funny enough, he's telling the truth about it not being a strip club, but the truth is still a violation of nba covid protocol by being at an event with 15+ people. the girl's IG is @bookedbymolo and apparently she's some sort of event planner. still a pretty stupid response. like telling your girl you didn't cheat on her with A, you were with B that night.
it was a good run. appreciate the good basketball he gave us for 8 years. the philly deal + the contracts currently on the books should give this team enough flexibility to transition through the Silas/Wall/Simmons/Gordon/Wood era of rockets basketball.

Miami pulled out. Simmons ain't on the table for real, thought the offers are supposed to get better no?

Harden's status at the beginning of the season was one the main variables of his trade value IMO. If he's going full buffoon and also not even playing, of course the offers won't get better. They might not get worse either though. Top 10 player is a top 10 player. Houston could potentially cave to one of the preliminary offers if he keeps Antonio Browning. Who knows.
