The Hypothetical Trade

Wow, this would be a massive blockbuster that would re-shape both teams. Harden is going to command a ton of value no matter where he is traded. Denver would be giving up a lot of talent and a lot of draft capital as well.

It appears that the Rockets should already be planning to move on from Harden. Whether or not they can convince him to stick around remains to be seen. That might be a tough sell though.

As for the Rockets, they need to be searching for a young player who has proven that they can be a star to go along with other talent and draft assets.
