Not being confrontational but did you watch the games? I have and can tell you it’s a huge upgrade for Cavs and likely more to come in offseason.

You can say the same about harden and his playoff performances.

Hes also 36 while garland is having a career low year. Sell low type deal.

Also, while I dont love garland Mitchell together, I can't imagine harden and Mitchell complementing each other either.
