There is some serious upside in this trade. Harden is an all-time great scorer with tons of experience. It could be a needle mover.

Stings that we had to give up Garland, but the man can't stay healthy.

We got rid of Garland's contract and got an upgrade in the process. Koby Altman killed it tonight.
 
This gives us size in the backcourt finally. Combined with the size in the frontcourt, and great depth, this is a better built roster for the playoffs.
Harden playing second fiddle to Don, and setting up Mobley/Allen sounds like a good plan to me.
 
Wow.... What has he done that has shown he's worth that much and will actually get us over the hump?
 
Better make it to the NBA finals you just traded a 2 time all star under team control who was only 26 years old for a guy who will play a half a season for you then likely bolt.

Seems like one odd trade when you give up a young guy under control for an old dude on his last year.
 
In a world where the Cavs have had Derrick Rose, the real D Wade, Shaq, Ben Wallace, Rajon Rondo, Andre Drummond, Deron Williams, etc… this one is right up there on the strange meter.

Welp, he’s our our guy now. Fear the beard!
 
I hope Harden loves Kenny, we keep Mobley, Harden opts out and re-ups for more years at lower cost to stay
