1 week away from the deadline for Harden to sign. Any news or info and what all do you guys think will go down?
I've heard absolutely nothing, im not even sure what to think, but i know if he doesnt sign an extension by the 31st he's as good as gone.
I don't know... I don't think it's over for us if he doesn't sign by then. He'll still get signed eventually, in my opinion.Quote:

Bonuses for things like reaching conference finals would not count against tax number but are realistic with the Thunder and could bump his salary close to what he wants. It is the most promising news I have heard from the Harden front
This is unverified but thought it might be interesting to follow up on baller while I stay watching the Power Lunch
Yea i posted it in the training camp thread, guess i wasnt bright enough to post contract situation info in the contract info thread lol
I'm interested to see what these bonuses they offer him to try and help him get the max. Sam Presti is a genius!!!!!Quote:

dion waiters + ?? for harden
Marc Stein: For the record, tho, plenty of pessimism still circulating about Harden & OKC striking deal by WED cause OKC insisting on deal less than max Twitter @ESPNSteinLine

Where is the Frenchie guy here?
He was trying tot tell me that I'm stupid because I didn't think Harden would take less money than OKC. He kept telling me that Harden would "stay here with his brothers" and that the Thunder are a "family" and a bunch of crap like that. I kept trying to tell him that money rules everything but he tried to mock me then.
Where you at Frenchie???
He told me that Ben Gordon was greedy and harden was not:Quote:
