i would say no to Harden... if we get the #3 pick i trade down w/a team looking to pick Thabeet & take Derozan, & w/the extra late round pick take either Mullens or Taj Gibson.

Why not? Just curious. He doesn't seem like a system guy he seems like an overall very good player who can adjust to whatever system he plays in.
On a side note, in this scenario would you trade Harrington and Curry for Steven Hunter and KMart?
i seriously got turned off to Harden when he came up invisible in that Pac10 championship game vs. USC... they gave him the ball w/a chance to score some key baskets down the stretch of that game & 1 time he lanched up a brick and another time he ended up turning the ball over... plus he doesn't strike me as a guy who can anchor an offense at the NBA level... seems more like a second fiddle scorer guy & we have enough of those on this team already.
i would not make that trade w/DEN cuz we'd be taking on too much longterm salary w/KMart's contract... if they wanted Curry & Fishlips for KMart i do it in a heartbeat but i doubt DEN wants any part of that deal either.
We could probably get KMart for Curry and JJ2 if we add a draft pick or two

.
I do like KMart though and think he would be an excellent addition to this team as a PF/C(in Dantoni's system he would probably start at center, imo). I would love to get a player or two of the KMart/RonRon ilk and attitude in here. I think JR Smith would make an excellent addition also.
How about a resigned Lee, Curry, and Jefferies(or Hughes) for KMart, Smith(resigned to a reasonable contract), and Steven Hunter(FA after next year).
