^Read a post from reddit a few days ago that Joe Harris will most likely to re-sign with the Nets.

Interested naman daw ang Lakers kay Wes Matthews pang replace kay Danny Green. Solid 3&D player din sya and will be a nice pickup if true ang rumors

^ Matthews will be a good pick up. Low cost but effective in short minutes. Vet minimum na lang si Matthews at this point of his career (34 na sya). He will be glad to have an opportunity to win a ring before he retires.

If Harden joins KD and Kyrie in Brooklyn, Joe Harris might get 2 to 3 shots a game and that's about it.

TBD .......... largely depends on Harden - if he can change and adapt. Iso-ball lang ang alam ni Harden all these years sa ROCKETS.

If I were the NETS, re-sign Harris then go for a low-maintenance contributor instead, si Gallinari kung payag siyang mid-level exception.

Sabi ni Gallinari kelan lang, hindi na importante ang pera sa kanya, at this point in his career.

Too risky si Harden para sa akin.

Lets just look at the most recent Harden and Westbrook combo to understand how difficult it is to mesh two ball dominant stars. They tried hard to co-exist but they failed. Now both of them want a trade. Majority of the season it was iso ball galore between the two. If Harden is on the attack...Westbrook just stands out there in the 3pt line where he is a liability. Conversely, when Westbrook has the ball...Harden just stand out there in the 3 pt line as well. Its like your turn my turn iso ball.

So siguro sa Nets it will be: Your turn, my turn, his turn iso ball as well. Honestly I dont see anyone of them sacrificing their individual games for the sake of team success. The key ingredient there is how their games will complement each other. Yan ang ginawa ni Lebron from day 1 when they landed AD.

We havent even seen how Kyrie and KD will play with each other...add to the mix pa si Harden. I see this simply as a Super Team on paper. They will win games yes because of their superior individual skills but can they win a series? Big question mark.

Team with individual superstars.Di talaga enough na magagaling lang individually ang players. Matagal na ding nasa HOU si Harden and was surrounded with superstars din naman.

Siguro malaking factor kaya naging tagumpay ang GSW with KD was not because of KD but the sacrifices done by Klay and Curry. Please correct me if im wrong.

You are correct. Prior to KD, the Warriors are among the top teams in assists already. It is a very unselfish team. KD came in and he was just asked to be KD. Steph and Klay willingly took a back seat for the team to be successful.

OKC got what they wanted in exchange for CP3. Quality young assets and a draft pick. In essence they flipped Russel Westbrook for 4 players and three first round draft picks. Last year in the PG13 trade, they got Gallinari, SGA and 5 1st round picks. Depending on the pick swaps, the Thunder could have 15 first-round picks and swap rights in four different seasons between 2020 and 2026.

Not bad at all

^Sam Presti is good hehe. He drafted 3 former mvps before and he might find more future mvps with all of their stockpiled draft picks hehehe

Na encourage yung Phoenix after their undefeated bubble run. Sayang lang kinapos at di umabot sa playoffs. Solid narin yung big 3 nila with Paul, Booker and the improving DeAndre Ayton.

synchro_01 · « **Reply #197 on:** Nov 17, 2020 at 06:06 AM »

Wag lang ma involve ulit si Ayton sa PED eh kaya na nila umabot sa playoffs. How they surround the big 3 with role players is now the challenge for the Suns.

Sam Presti is really good kaso problema lagi small market ang OKC. kaya lagi nagtitipid..imagine kung noon eh intact ang big3 nila.

Na malabo sigurong gawin ni Harden at Irving kung magkakasama sila.

GSW will remain a top contender without KD but KD will not contend anymore kahit pa siguro saang Team lumagay except Lakers or Heat.

lol Harden turned down a $50m a year extension with the Rockets. Houston we have a problem. Pero mag stay kaya si Westbrook if mauna ma trade si Harden kung sakali kasi he can be the number one option again. Sa kanya na lagi ulit bola

More trades reported:

* The Milwaukee Bucks are acquiring Jrue Holiday from the New Orleans Pelicans in exchange for Eric Bledsoe, George Hill and draft picks.

EDIT: The draft picks received by the Pels consist of three future first-round picks, including the Bucks' first-rounder in Thursday's draft (#24), and two pick swaps. Nice haul there for the Pels, although those picks might not be high ones if the Bucks continue to contend with the core of Giannis, Middleton and Holiday. Remains to be seen if this move is enough to keep Giannis.

* The Houston Rockets continue to break up its team by shipping Robert Covington to the Portland Trailblazers in exchange for Trevor Ariza and draft picks.

Jrue Holiday is a nice piece for the BUCKS ........... but giving up 3-first round picks & 2 pick-swaps (aside from Bledsoe & Hill) is absolutely ridiculous !

Correct bro. This is an outright robbery. Desperation is the key word sa Bucks. I dont see Jrue Holiday as a major upgrade over Bledsoe and Hill though

Jrue Holiday is elite defensively and has scoring chops ......... KD recently called him the best PG defender in the NBA.

Bledsoe is also good defensively, but he always chokes during the playoffs. George Hill is a solid back-up PG (among the best 3pt% in the league), though he's slowing down really fast.

Those 3-picks and 2-swaps are used for getting top-tier superstar players .......... indeed it's desperation time and t's all in for the BUCKS.

EDIT: BUCKS made a new trade for the KINGS Bogdan Bogdanovic ......... great trade, they lose only Divincenzo, Wilson & the carcass of the Ilyasova. No picks involved.
