We just saw Giannis play with a ball dominant guard who isnt an engaged defender...what if we did it again hahaha. With all that said, Harden would be good for our offense that has struggled with getting to the line and not turning the ball over. It also shows Giannis we are serious about contending.

Obviously this is not an ideal return for the clips, but idk if the market for Harden is exactly booming either. They do get KPJ, a young guy who puts up decent stats, Kuz who could be flipped in the offseason for more pieces, and the 2031 unprotected FRP, which could be a huge get. The other 2 are salary fillers but also young enough to be future pieces if Ty Lue can get them right.

The elephant in the room is that Giannis and Harden might not like each other. If thats really true this would not be a great deal, but my guess is that its an overblown storyline.

Bucks lineup: Harden-Rollins-Green-Giannis-Turner Bench: Gary Harris (really its Rollins in stagger minutes or Giannis) - GTJ - Taurean Prince - BP - Sims

This is not exactly ideal for either team, but it does check some boxes for both...interesting to think about.
