    Sorry man. I don't think my post made it clear, but I assume the Bulls look to blow it up and get draft picks plus Mann from the Clippers, Clippers get Harden and Sixers get Derozan in a three team deal.

    Possibly need some expirings in the mix, and the Bulls can flip Mann for more picks.

    All assuming the Bulls blow it up or try to get younger and the Clippers get more desperate watching their season slip away.

    Clippers don't want to give up Mann or Harden would already be on the Clippers

    Other way around. We don't want Mann. PG was the desired asset

    They offered Mann, Norman Powell, and pick and it was turned down

    Yeah but if the start out 2-8 is Lawrence Frank still going to value him like an MVP candidate when Uncle Dennis comes knocking?

    The longer the season goes on Morey gets more power in the negotiation, not less, especially if the Clippers don't live up to their own expectations.

    Mann is injured also. Harden is on the bench right now and is set to play next game against Toronto. If he plays well the Clippers need to be mindful of what happened to the Heat in the Dame situation, if they are not already. Pluss if the Bulls want in, maybe the get desperate enough they don't even need Mann in a deal.

    I can't imagine anyone wanting Harden right now....except for maybe the Wizards. I mean, they have nowhere to go but up.

    Think only Clippers, China and Puerto Rico have any interest. Maybe Taiwan?

    He is inside the top 15 for PER this season and climbing.

    It's a rebirth.

    Not sure how long it will last he has to come back to earth a little at some point, but right now he unbelievable.

    He is on the verge of cult status I feel.

    He brings that good energy. He allows Maxey to be Maxey and gets that high tempo game going.

    I'd like us to go get Desmond Bane. He'd suit the culture here

    Oubre been a surprise. Hopefully it lasts. Not holding my breath at all. Maxey is the truth and if he can find ways to get to the charity stripe? Even better. I’m talking 6-7 Fta per game. Probably the best Sixers find in a very long time. I can’t think offhand if someone as good in last drafts.


    Is Kenyon Jr any good potential wise?

    I foresee Oubre having another great game against the Wizards on Monday making everyone finally believe he is for real and then on Wednesday against Celtics have a stinker and shoot them out the game in another embarrassing loss.

    He was promising in Houston, but they drafted better rookies that played similar roles hence why he found his way to LA. The Clippers moved him on pretty quick so it's tough to say how much better he will be or if Nurse will put him in the rotation. I think Morey may even flip him again.

    Oubre's best season from 3 is 35%. Don't get your hopes up too much.

    Maxey is a beast though.
