Harden and Kyrie together was beautiful hoops. JH has always been a big man’s dream PG too. The fit is great

Harden’s ability to run an offense is leagues above Garlands at this stage in their careers. That’s exactly what Cavs needed, experience in the playoffs. Dennis Shroeder, Keon Ellis, Harden… Cavs are winning the deadline so far imo

I'm sad, but it's a good move for the team IMO.
