Heat vs. Sixers would've made more sense but they must've really wanted Zion on Christmas.
I think LeBron vs. Luka is a great match up for the primetime game.

Can't be mad at that. Lots of interesting storylines in the first game with Durant and Curry's return from injuries, Durant vs. his old team, first game Durant and Kyrie play together, Wiseman's debut, etc. Clippers/Lakers is also one of the best match ups on paper and they had a couple of good games last season.

He's arguably the most hyped prospect to be drafted since LeBron James. A lot of that has to do with the social media era we live in, but make no mistake about it he's clearly pegged by the NBA as "the next one"

Wall immediately gets into the paint and lays it in on the first possession. He was being defended by Colby White but still, that's good to see after his injuries. Then he sets up Boogie for a three on the next possession.
Happy to have basketball back.

Always liked Stak's style. No need to sugarcoat anything. That time he beefed Wiggins & his bro was hilarious.
He's right tho. Harden needs to grow up and be "the guy."
Also hilarious how he threw in that tidbit of Harden borrowing his watch
so unnecessary

I think putting the Bucks on the list is just for show. Similar to how AD put them on his list when he had no interest in going there and knew they couldn't actually trade for him. You do it because everyone is talking about how he only wants to go to one team, he's putting the Rockets in a tough spot, it's unrealistic, there's no market, etc. Harden and Giannis also don't seem to like each other based on what we've seen. It's probably Nets, Sixers, and maybe Heat in that order.

No doubt. Some dudes just can't be the lead cat and have to be that #2.
Regardless of his gaudy regular season numbers, Harden might be better off in that role - especially in the playoffs.

As much as I think Harden is overrated, I'm not sure I understand Philadelphia's reluctance to include Ben Simmons in a trade for Harden.
Unless the Rockets are demanding multiple 1st round picks, then I could understand. But if the ask isn't very much on top of Simmons, that's a trade Philadelphia should be all over.

Harden gives up so much defensively. Simmons is already a lock down defender and if he can develop some semblance of a shot to go along with his passing and dribbling, he’s better to build around than Harden.
