Re: Harden traded to Brooklyn
Brooklyn:
It's James Harden. His game and his resume speaks for itself. It also speaks for how Brooklyn wants to ensure that Durant is paired with a lethal offensive threat because at this point, they can't count on Kyrie Irving. In doing so, they gave up a bright young, productive center in Jarrett Allen. Currently, the team is very top-heavy so they'll have to fill those spots without many resources to do so.
Cleveland:
Jarrett Allen immediately becomes a young, talented building block for the future of the cavaliers to go with Garland and Sexton. He isn't a floor stretcher but he does so many other things well to compliment Cleveland's current roster. He's a great finisher at the rim, great rim defender, good FT shooter, and his mobile enough to be effective as a high screener. This move also allows them to unload Andre Drummond, who is still productive but doesn't quite fit what they're trying to do with their young roster.
Houston:
Getting rid of a disgruntled James Harden marks the end of an era. Four unprotected first-round picks and Victor Oladipo's expiring contract sets the Rockets up to rebuild and make another run at competing.
Indiana:
Caris LeVert showed what he could do with playing time and a larger role in last year's bubble. LeVert is 2 inches taller and 2 years younger than Oladipo. He's also in the first year of a 3 year $54 million contract extension as opposed to Oladipo, who was in the final year of his contract and was looking for a huge payday that Indiana was not going to be able to afford and stay competitive.
*Sooooo, now that LeVert's having health issues that will hopefully only keep him out for a short bit, Indiana will have to come up with another plan to replace that production in the line up.
