Yes I know. People will bring up the Westbrook fail from years ago. Yes we know Harden can be a major distraction & has been toxic.
But Harden is a different player from Westbrook. He can shoot the Ball & be that Playmaker we need when Bron is resting.
He can also score in the Halfcourt when our Offense stalls & we need a bucket. Would come up bigger than DLo vs Denver.
If there’s one man that can turn his toxicity & bad habits around it’s LeBron.
This time around we’re not trading the whole farm like for Westbrook.
It’s a 1 for 1 trade. DLo for Harden. Throw in a 2nd round pick or two (not an expert with salary cap so don’t know if it aligns) Point is,
Sixers have no leverage & they’ll let him come home for cheap.
Foot injuries probably. Also the sixers would NEVER do Harden for Dlo straight up. We would probably have to throw it like Rui and a pick or two which is not worth it.
