Remember that Harden never came into his own until after the Jeff Green trade. A lot of people seem to forget that. At the time the best thing about the trade to me was getting Harden and Ibaka Green's shots. When Harden became aggressive he was awesome. When Green was there he truly played like a bench player.

Cleveland has 7 first rounds in the next 3 years, along with extra 2nds. They have the power to trade up and might be in the lottery at least this one more year.

Good timing, as you won't just see good players, you could see some really good players get shipped off than usual. |

I don't know what you're talking about. They have done nothing but acquire assets since James left. If anything, they cut some dead weight, stayed the course and drafted well. I think Chris Grant has done a solid job.

I don't have a problem with him doing anything he could to put a team around LeBron. I think he did a good job, but Mike Brown just wasn't the right coach.

Now they are in a position where the team is 1 or 2 key players away from a very good team. They will be a very attractive trade partner. And they can afford the top free agents a lot of teams cannot. |

If he can be a threat from 3, along with Bayless, that bench is much better than last season. They had Mayo playing PG with the 2nd team last season, and he was ill equipped to handle that role. He killed them against the Clips. If they get Arthur back healthy, I love them as a dark horse in the West.

they match up well against the Heat because Memphis has a bunch of 6'9 to 7 foot guys that are like 250 lbs+ and the Heat just play Lebron or Bosh at the 5 pending the guy because they can match up with 90 percent of the league like that. Memphis is not one of those

Memphis will be a good team in the playoffs. Even when they lose a series, the team they play won't be fresh going into the next round.

yea I like Memphis too, it's a bummer a team make up like that in a smaller market still has no shot at a title. I'd like to see a market with a team composition like that actually win one
