Maybe KD, Harden and Westbrook should go join each other on a team again now that all of their current teams have flamed out.

Always wondered if they'd have won a title together in OKC if they all stayed together.

Finances were always going to be an issue down there. Just add it to the list of "what if an organization with money had been the ones to end up with them?" I find the dumb luck of where players get drafted to be fascinating.

I think KD has had enough of both those dudes.
He coulda/shoulda won 2-3 more titles in Golden State.

Lot of quality FA available. Teams like the Kings should reach out to guys such as Kyrie, Harden, Westbrook, Ayton, LaVine, Bridges, Valanciunas, Tucker, etc, and see who wants to play together for 5-10 million a season and try and win a championship.

Harden sure acts like he has other places to be since his glory days. Philly's biggest problem has been finding guys with passion to play there.

The irony is Harden basically replaced Simmons and the guy who is known as a shooter - took a grand total of 2 shots in the 2nd half of an elimination game.

The icing on the cake is Brand and Morey are basically blowing Rivers today.
Seems the organization is regressing. I feel bad for Joel.

^^^^

it’ll be sad if he can’t get the right pieces around him while in his prime
Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

They had Jimmy Butler and let him go to keep Harris/Simmons.

Simmons hadn’t imploded yet so it’s tough to blame the 6ers there.

I think I saw a graphic a week ago that Memphis is actually more efficient with him OFF the floor.

Definitely made me rewind

Yes. Their record without him is insane. Like 20-something wins and only 6 or 7 losses.


Side note: Wiggins having a huge 2nd half.

It's insane. I think he's someone we will always say "if he just coulda..."...and it's not like he's not good, he was an all star. But just feels/looks like he could be so much more. Can you imagine if he had Kobe/MJ work ethic and fire to compete?
