James Harden: "Daryl Morey is a liar and I will never be a part of an organization that he’s a part of."

Remember when I said he was mad yesterday lmao pic.twitter.com/EwiifHk69f
Harden doing the best he can to destroy any trade value he had.
While calling Daryl Morey a liar, he is showing his off-ball movement and perimeter defense skills.

If Morey really did promise him a certain wink wink nudge nudge number for an extension to get him to take less last year and sign PJ/House, just to pull the rug out afterwards, then I understand why James is so upset.
But he has also spent the past half decade acting like a toddler on and off the court, so I find it pretty hard to muster any sympathy.

Lillard to Milwaukee
"The Blazers remain engaged elsewhere on deals and will are expected to immediately engage contending teams on trade talks to move on Jrue Holiday, sources tell ESPN. Portland is committed to its young group of talented guards."

Lillard goes Milwaukee as part of a 3-team deal with Jrue Holiday, Deandre Ayton, Toumani Camara, a 2029 unprotected MIL 1st, and unprotected MIL swap rights in 2028 and 2030 to Blazers. Phoenix lands Jusuf Nurkic, Grayson Allen, Nassir Little and Keon Johnson. https://t.co/Ge0H91AiIA

As a Phoenix suns hater, I love to see them whiff on this one. That's all they could get for Ayton?

What a ridiculous trade for everybody involved.
Suns get Nurkic who is horrible and two guys who are below average role players. Go from a top 5 center to a bottom 5 center.
Milwaukee gets a guy who wanted to be in Miami and doesn't pair well with Giannis, IMO. They get much worse defensively.
Portland gets a win-now guard when they need to be playing their 3 young guards as much as possible.

I think anyone pairs well with Giannis and Dame is one hell of a competitor. They are definitely going to miss Jrue, but I think this is definitely an upgrade.

I'm guessing Portland will move Jrue in another deal possibly after the season starts.

Blazers GM Joe Cronin is so mad at the HEAT that he may deal Robert WIlliams or Jerami Grant to the Knicks just to help out every team that the Heat played in the playoffs last year.
