I've heard 50/50 arguments for both teams. I think it's an excellent deal for OKC. I think it's excellent for HOU too.

People tripping off of the Lin/Asik deals, but if nothing else they are short, and that 3rd year is a crazy expiring. This summer, they can add the 2nd big piece. This trade gave them their first. And I'm in the school of thought who thinks James Harden will trend up as the man. nikkas mad at him, but Houston can offer that 5th year, which makes it a 20 mil difference, not a 4.5 mil difference. He'd be dumb not to take that. He's 23, get yo paper.

OKC, though :lawd: I'm gonna enjoy these couple years with the Fantastic Four, cause around 2014, these nikkas will run the West and we will be looking up to them. They will be Miami West in terms of positionless basketball if PJIII pans out like I hope he will. But they getting whooped this year :pachaha:

i actually think he will be worse this year, he hasnt shown anything new or promising in preseason or the Olympics. I've been saying this for weeks now you can check for earlier postings; this aint just a "jump the ship type shyt" from me. im not even sure harden played basketball this off season.

@Loose would still try to spin this in a positive light if it was Westbrook or Durant

nikka please stop frontin and let those tears fall. Yall finished.

Sohh... overnight Harden is now trash and overrated player? Kevin Martin and Jeremy Lamb are now the holy savior for OKC? Okay. Wow.

it's called denial. These OKC fans are either retarded or they watch just a handful of games

I'm not trying to change anybody's mind...I think that with an offense tailored around him rather than being a role player will let him do what he does at a higher level.

Lol @ comparing James Harden to one-dimensional Kevin Martin...

Harden is a more explosive scorer, way younger, more athletic, 10x the playmaker, better defender, just better overall...

EXACTLY. I think people here mistaken Kevin Martin of Sac-town. He's NOT the same player he was in Houston. Dude's been awful the past 2-3 seasons for the Rockets.
