Big story last week, but he's not happy about the future of the Rockets.

Doesn't think he can win.

Ah, championship there obviously put two and two together.

Kevin Durant and James Harden were teammates with the Oklahoma City Thunder back when Harden wasn't exactly Harden, but they've discussed the possibility.

Then you throw Kyrie Irving into the mix as well.

I want you to listen to awoke this morning on SportsCenter.

You think it's crazy?

Harden Durant, Kyrie.

Here's Whoa, John!

How it could end up happening if Hardened decides that Brooklyn is the place he wants to be and really starts to push the organization on it.

You know, I think that's the mo mentum that it's going to take to get him to New York.

You know, Brooklyn has, uh, some assets and young players and potential picks and all those things that you're gonna want.

But a player of James Harden's caliber, Houston is going to have to get a monster hall back to justify trading.

You know, maybe one of the two or three best players in the NBA.

They might as well go ahead and just go with Westbrook to bring their own band back.

I'm just saying, man, a couple of days were up in the show talking about this, and you said it was a reality and I was suddenly is coming to fruition.

Interesting.

All I'm saying is that James Harden, if you wanted to get the Brooklyn, could get the Brooklyn him, Kyrie and Kevin Durant, regardless of whatever assets they had to give up, You think that Sean Marks would be able to find complementary pieces?

If that happens, they will be the favorite to come out of the East.

And I gotta tell you something else that happened the other day.

Lap.

You are gonna talk about Dennis Schroder going to the Los Angeles Lakers, which huge for the Lakers.

It gives him another scoring.

It gives them somebody that at times is the best player on the floor for O.

K.

C.

And is that could be your MBA finals next year.

The Lakers LeBron a D.

Dennis Schroder versus the Brooklyn Nets, Kevin Durant, Kyrie and James Harden.

So let me ask you this, though.

Uh, J yeah, I got you.

I was just trying to think of a name for you.

Um, the fact that James Harden is pushing, or so allegedly pushing to get out of Houston to go join Katie in New Jersey.

Does he get the same kind of push back that Katie got going to Golden State?

No, I don't think so.

I don't think so.

It's almost I would have quit.

I mean, just because he hasn't been able to win a championship in Houston and so many things have been changing around him.

I think it's the fact that the rug has been pulled up underneath from him, like losing Daryl, Morey, losing your head coach, guys that you've had that continuity with, I don't think it's the same people not gonna act like they act when Katie went to Golden State and left, Okay, see, because he lost the Golden State.

Is that you know, I don't think cause it's not.

I mean, it's not ones in the West.

He's going on east.

I think it's easy to get to a championship.

Come from the east, going up through Yannis or not everybody like ring chasing.

You know?

E mean well, that I mean, let's talk about it.

I mean, Anthony Davis.

I remember he wore that shirt to the pelicans games.

That's all folks.

E mean guy.

We live in a league now in MBA, where guys air able to dictate where they wanna be.

No, no question, no problem with, you know, I don't have a problem with it.

Go get your money, get your rings and everything else.

I'm just saying, for the people that you communicate with on Social Media and Twitter and all the different stuff that you are behaviors, Of course they are.

Get yourself caught in, or people going to try and create this narrative that he couldn't do it in Houston.

He only could do it with Katie.

That's why he's running.

I hate this, though, gets me angry, and I know you are.

It gets me because people like, well, you can't win it on your own.

How you win it on your own has a lot to do with who's running your organization, the style in which you play when they come in.

When Stephen Solace comes in and I give him a lot of credit, look, he he's going to be a tremendous coach to come into that organization with those expectations I think are unfair for a first year head coach.

But when you hear internally from them that, yes, we're going to run it back.

I don't want to run small ball back anymore With P.

J.

Tucker at my five p.

J.

Tucker is having issues with this contract.

We may not even have P.

J.

Tucker moving forward.

We got complimentary players getting frustrated with.

I'm worried about my role.

Austin Rivers.

You wanna play with a 65?

No, I don't want to play with the 65 center.

I love you, P J.

You grind it out, but go grind it out somewhere else.

I want to win a chip and I'm playing with Katie.

And Kyrie is the best way for me to do that.

And I could come East and go through Milwaukee from Miami.

There's a question.

There's no question he should get out of there as well as Westbrook.

Find a home that fits their style.

I'm just saying from a I don't know, a gossip social media hater standpoint.

What's gonna be that message that people try toe, you know, create?

See, that's all I was just asking you.
