Who wins the trade?
Does Selflosha keep his starting job?
Thats going to be a really good bench for the Thunder. Lamb, Martin, PJ3, Collison, and Thabeet.

That is a lot for James Harden. Just Kevin Martin, Jeremy Lamb plus the filler is a pretty good deal, both those 2013 draft picks (Toronto and Dallas) could be lottery picks.

I'm still hoping that when Harden's current deal expires, he goes to the Suns.. XD

I really could see Harden going to the Suns, if they offer him the max. Houston is set to offer the max as well. But he's from the desert.

THE RAPTORS pick though is PERFECT the pick is top 3 protected and protected from 15-30 so from 4 to 14 the OKC gets a great chance to upgrade the roster, possibly get a Nerlen Noels or Cody Zeller if they fall around picks 5-6 range pending the Raptors completely sucks balls this season.

The more I think about it, the more the Thunder may have gotten a good deal. I am not 100% Harden is a superstar, and they do get some nice pieces. If that Toronto pick turns into something good, they may even win the deal after it is all said and done. Toronto's pick ending up being good for a team is something I should know something about!

Yeah I reckon OKC got the better deal here. I love Harden, he's amazing, but he's never played without Durant/Westbrook/Ibaka or on Team USA. He plays incredibly well with a bunch of amazing guys around him, but I don't think he'll dominate as the #1 option.

Rockets got the better trade in this one. Harden will be effective although his efficiency may take a hit. Martin has never played with quality players and Lamb just become the next Dequan Cook.
Houston won immediately, but the Thunder have a decent chance of winning the trade five years from now.

okay so I am trying to project next year's line-up pending TOR picks sucks and they end up getting 4th pick in the draft (OKC THAT IS FROM TOR).
and I presume Shabazz, Noel, and McAdoo has great chance to be top 3 pick and that possibly could eliminate Zeller from top 3.
AGAIN THIS IS JUST A PREDICTION NOTHING MORE THEN THAT.
PG Westbrook SG Lamb SF Durant PF Ibaka C Zeller
6th man: Perry Jones the third
I think that's a dangerous team and if anything that's a team that can win the title for next 10 years and be a bigger threat to Miami then they would be with Harden.

As a Raptors fan it always amazes me that no matter how good or bad the team is everyone always thinks they suck. The Raps are a playoff bubble team this year and their pick will likely be late lottery.

I think they are a playoff team this year actually, but they are screwed in the sense that they are in the toughest division in basketball right now.
