you think so? I think Beal could develop into a star. Sure Harden is arguably OKC best play-maker but he was a phantom in the finals and to be real OKC cant afford to pay Westbrook KD him AND Ibaka. this could be just what the doctor ordered for their books. this way they get something for him.
not to mention whispers of Jeff Green coming back to give them a lift
yea man i stand by my words. Harden was a good player, one that commands max money soon i think regardless of if he comes off the bench. the fact of the matter is theres a strong chance he'll be gone come 2014 when he's an Unrestricted Free Agent. Why not get a good player now? A Starter for cheap?
could mess with chemistry and i want harden in OKC as much as the next man, i think he westbrook and durant are a fantastic core, but i dont think they can pay all three of them what their skills command under this new CBA

Brad Beal = Eric Gordon without the super athleticism?
Just dont get how some people are saying he's the 2nd best player in the draft.

Because he's a prolific shooter who knocked down an outlandish 34% of his 3 point shots.

Because you can win the championship next season before Harden walks. I'd rather a title then see Harden walk then trade Harden away and wonder what if

This is insanity, a 6-3 combo guard, who's kind a fat, not a super athlete, not a great shooter. This can't be life.

i agree
this is why i said above, i dont make the deal unless someone blows me away.. give this group another year at it AND then decide what to do with who.. hell could even wait and let the market dictate, since both ibaka and harden will be restricted
FOR ME.. i do the deal if the bobcats offer the second pick AND the option to swap first round picks in the next 5 years
hell i would even throw in a future 2nd in that deal.. or give them reggie jackson

One of the radio guys in Memphis tweeted "would you do ZBO for Thomas Robinson if it was offered" and only ONE fan said yes.

He isn't fat
He's strong, a little thick. Which helps him. And maybe not super athletic. But he's far above average.

When you have a 30-31 yr old PF coming off a major injury and he may not be the same again, you take that deal and run with it. Tied for 3rd best record in the West without ZBO for the most part. The team would be fine.Originally Posted by Bigmike23

Sullinger is reportedly not even getting consideration from teams in the late teens.

Waiters outside of 7 is a good pick. Waiters in the top 5, is a bad pick. Simple as that.

Why does Neil Olshey want to get fired already?
