    Golden State has 4 All Stars on the floor, with 2 MVP's. Rockets have...Harden. Hence the Rockets attempts to add another superstar.


    With another super star to share the load, turnovers would go down. At least that would be their thinking.

    Of course, wanting another super star and getting another super star are two different things. Every team wants one, only a couple get one.

    You don't have to have another superstar for turnovers to go down. You have to share the ball and share playmaking duties.

    Turnovers would not go down with Westbrook added to Harden. They'd go up. Because both players do the same thing, wind the clock and attempt to make the play themselves.

    You have to have a balanced attack with multiple playmakers.

    After game 6, why would trading Harden not be a option?

    4.1 is stuff all, you are too fixed on that number and yes the Warriors had more turnovers than their opposition in the Playoffs as i originally said

    I'm sorry that you always look for perfection....but that just doesn't happen.


    just quietly.....LeBron averaged 4.4 turnovers per game in the Finals last year

    Because Morey isn't a reactionary ass clown like half of you on here and doesn't determine one player's worth by a 60 minute sample size rather than an available 4 year sample size

    60 minutes? Have you not watched Harden's other playoff performances?

    Morey should try to send Beverley to the wolves for that #16 pick.

    Because #16 is better than Beverley.

    Says who? Beverly is a starting NBA PG, whoever is at 16 is probably 3 years away from playing and probably not good

    Actually, it's to include in a trade. Can't do that without a first. It's pretty much the topic of every thread right now.;)
    I thought #16 might be possible with the Bulls. Even though it switched teams, it might still be a viable option. Especially if the Wolves are looking to move Rubio somewhere (not to the Rockets).

    I agree wholeheartedly, but both look like long term deals. I won't be watching the Rockets until both are gone. The only exception is if Harden admits that he has an addiction problem and gets help. During the stress of the playoffs he apparently goes clubbing, gets smashed, and quits on his team. Sort of nullifies the whole season.I am not going to follow or support a player like that. I believe there many more fans who feel the same way.

    Well, the ship sailed on a Bev trade happening tonight, way too deep into the draft at this point.

    i actually hope that's the case b/c perhaps his addiction can be cured. the other possibilities, that he just don't care or is a major headcase, would be a lot more complicated

    No pictures that I know of but reports that he was clubbing late before the SA collapse and the record setting turnover performance against GS were in the social media. In both cases he appeared hung over. May never happened, but there are many pics of him in the clubs over the years. If it didn't, how do you explain the way he looked and performed on both occasions? If he was not hung over or under the influence on those occasions then he just chokes under real pressure. I guess we can pick one or the other.
