Not Mann. But they could throw in Bones and maybe Coffey. Sadly it is what's coming out right now. Not happy about losing Mann. That's not good if it's true. Mann is probably our best younger player (along with Zubac). And for 1 year of Harden?

I don't like seeing Mann and Powell go either. I didn't realize until recently that Harden lead the league in assists last year.

Moo Moo Shelbourne said Harden will probably stay w 6’ers.

I think we'll probably be giving up more than we'd like to for just essentially a sign and trade, but hoping it's not Mann and a pick. Roco/Powell/Morris/1st. If it's some combo of that, that's fine but I'm sure they'll be pushing for more. But who else is out there that makes sense? Not sure why Harden opted in early either, he kinda gave the 6ers a bit of leverage.

It's a one-year rental of Harden and not your typical S&T. So overpaying for one year of Harden shouldn't be happening. We may be bidding against Miami with Herro to offer, so there's that.

Yeah doesn't feel like we should have to give up Mann for a possible 1 year rental, but we have no real way to acquire a player like that. Plus obv the Morris anvil has to be greased. Will they take Kobe instead?

Will they take Kobe instead? How good is Harden now? He's not the Harden of yesterday, is he? Powell is a nice player for them to get, plus we can throw in Bones/Coffey/Kobe/Boston. I really hope Mann isn't included and also not a pick.

He's still an excellent passer/creator, but obv not the MVP level player he used to be.

Harden is still good enough as the 3rd option. He would be better than most 2nds on a given night

Reporting seems to be counting this as pretty much a done deal. Obv the elephant in the room is what do we end up having to give up. Hopefully not Mann or future 1sts. Would be ok with Powell, Bones and contracts. And possibly 1 of '28 1st or Kobe. I think Tucker is someone they want to salary dump to us too. Kawhi, PG and Harden all on board with it.

I think this also likely means Russ is gone

I don't think it's a done deal yet. I think Heat or Knicks or even an unknown team can still muck this up.
And I don't think it means Russ is out. I don't think Harden cares which guard position he plays.
