    I don't think the Rockets would be willing to give up Harden without an all-star in return so the packages involving Levert/Dinwiddie don't seem to stack up.

    This trade returns Houston a bonafide all-star in Kyrie to help them stay competitive and sell jerseys. They also get a collection of younger talent - Allen, RJ, Knox and picks.

    Brooklyn get Harden to pair with KD while also keeping Levert and Dinwiddie producing offence to rival GSW.

    Knicks lose RJ (questionable potential) and smaller assets but get back a superstar that will help sell out MSG, sell jerseys and maybe drag NYK to the 8th seed. They would need to count on Russ and Leon Rose to coax some FA action in 2021 which is possible with the cap space and allure of playing with Russ (notoriously great team mate).

    Who says no? Probably Kyrie.
