Rockets giving Harden the max deal

Huge OKC fan, but harden is about to find out how good he had it here with the unstoppable forces durrant and Westbrook. 6th man of the year is a huge accomplishment but to be a go to starter is a completely different ball game. He'll do ok, but that's it, ok.... Nothing more.
 
this wreaks of Joe Johnson leaving Phoenix for ATL, I ain't eem mad James Harden. get your bread and all star appearances
 
If he's going to be Joe Johnson 2.0, why is this such a bad thing? Harden is 23...no one knows what his ceiling will be. He's one of the best 2 guards in the league and was WELL worth the max. I don't get what's so :lol about his deal.
 
Houston gonna be the ATL Hawks of the West but an even worse version :lol

What a horrible contract between Asik, Lin and Harden :rollin
 
5/87 was the max for him wasn't it? Why did he sign for 5/80? Did he in fact take "less" money to help Houston or something?
 
It's not like those contracts completely hinder the Rockets from pursuing other people in free agency in the coming years.
 
is he going to be joe johnson 2.0?

what were the hawks before joe johnson? what's wrong with being the man (and getting paid)?

kids act like joe johnson paid himself. the hawks went from being the armpit of the NBA to a playoff team for 6 years. no he wasn't worth the 100M. but honestly that team was always the 3rd or 4th best team in the east. i'm not mad at iso joe or james harden

I don't get it either. Harden can and probably will be the best SG since Kobe.

The max is $78M (or 80 depending on the cap and incentives).
 
Kobe, Wade, and Ginobili are all getting a little long in the tooth. When these three noticeably fall off, my guess is that Harden will be considered the best 2-guard in the league. Assuming he keeps getting better - which he should.
