James Harden and his agent were probably blindsided by the Houston Rockets situation, which they thought gave Harden absolute leverage. Most people never imagined a situation where Ime Udoka would roll in, sign a contract and immediately CANCEL James. There's a lot of guys who've been around the league who believed Udoka would have to wait years for another NBA head coaching opportunity. It looks like Ferttita has given Ime the keys, so he decided he wanted none of that smoke. On the other side, Harden seems to forget that he was the one who demanded out of Houston in the first place, and currently works for the guy Fertitta fired (Daryl Morey). 🏀

The difference between a real Superstar & a regular season player is pretty clear to see. Lets say, Luka & Embiid. Luka gets better in the Playoffs, Embiid gets worse.

Heck, if they can get Lillard pull that trade without thinking about it. Even if Embiid doesn’t leave, I don’t believe he will keep being a top player by the time Maxey is an all star, he’s injury prone and story shows injury prone big men don’t last long in the league.

Or like keeping the no. 3 pick when everybody and their pet thought that pick was being shipped somewhere else and drafting Lillard’s replacement. Or like shedding cap space just to use it on 160 mil for Jerami Grant. Or not trading Anfernee Simons and Shaedon Sharpe for someone established. Yes, Dame was loyal and then switched up, but Portland never deserved his loyalty in the first place and need to realize that if they want to better their franchise. They still have expressed no loyalty to him throughout this entire situation. Dame realized that he wasn’t getting out what he was giving. And that’s what all their current young guys plus any future draft picks will realize if they decide to trade Dame anywhere other than Miami. That this organization is completely disloyal and dysfunctional. If Kevin Durant last offseason, who was at an older age, also did not have a no-trade clause, was making honestly less money than he should have, and was owed nothing from the Nets was granted his wish to be traded to the Suns, even if it took months, than Lillard will get his wish at some point and there is nothing anybody can do about it.

[@kaysheye7784]

@@aquatazer Same Giannis whose lack of shooting ability hurt Bucks in previous playoff series and also avoided accountability, saying "there's no such thing as failure, just steps to success"? Also dropping in EVERY category is a stretch. Defensively, Embiid steps up even if his offense struggles, he jumped from 1.7 BPG in regular season to 2.8 BPG in playoffs. Also his ppg didn't drop in 2020 or 2021 playoffs either.

[@vibangigan5336]

Realistically blazers kinda have to do right by Dame, if they don’t it paints a bad picture to players. Think about it if you’re not gonna do right by Damian freaking Lillard…than how can any players expect them to treat them right?

[@randygraham926]

Is Portland running a Lillard charity? He's had good players around him, never gone anywhere in the playoffs, and they've paid him a ton of $$$$. No one put a gun to his head to sign that incredibly lucrative contract. Portland GM needs to look out for his TEAM. Lillard hasn't been playing for free for all these years so this nonsense doesn't fly.

[@dwaynehoward240]

I only feel bad for lonzo cause of how he came in .. knees have messed up many players career..

[@randygraham926]

I do feel sorry for him because he fixed his shot, plays team basketball, and the Bulls looked good with him when he was healthy. Just unfortunate.

After what KD, Harden, and Kyrie have done to the NBA and player empowerment, no, Portland does not owe Dame anything. They'll trade him to a contender so he can win a title, THAT'S IT. It may not be Miami.

[@bandito241]

I think the Suns are going to be super dangerous. Yes, they don’t have a PG but there are many players off the free agency’s that can fill that role and have a decent output. Brooks could help there anyways. Of course, the depth went to the crap, but, if healthy, this team could win it if they put it together. They have 3 legit all stars and Ayton who’s a fringe all star (imo he can thank CP3 for his all star status) is a solid center.

[@JibronLames]

😂

[@KenpoKid77]

You're gonna see a decline in Ayton's progress if they can't get a competent playmaker. People forget CP3 has a long history of elevating bigs. He makes any big look really good. Look at what happened to DeAndre Jordan and Blake after they stopped playing with CP3.

[@smoothsavage2870]

The Suns actually have depth now. But nobody want to admit it because the #1 hated NBA player in the world is on the team. Everybody is going to nitpick the Suns to death all next season because of it.

Jeff Green has been on a ton of teams -- 13 or 14?? -- and finally won a chip. But he doesn't seem like a malcontent at all. Not sure why he's bounced around. Harden looks ridiculous demanding another trade. Russ is sticking with the Clippers for a small contract so .... Harden the winner. 😂
