Which backcourt would you rather have-- Jeremy Lin and James Harden
or
Deron Williams and Joe Johnson

OKC just committed 10 counts of 'NBA robbery' in the first degree

lin and harden all day. assuming money counts.

[SWedd523]

Hell no. Deron is an elite PG and a top 10 NBA player and Lin is nowhere near that caliber. Right now, Joe and Harden are a wash.

[Toocool]

Wow Rockets just shot themselves in the foot.

[Plowright]

Is it weird that I like this deal for Houston? They get their go to guy, plus Cole Aldrich who has had a really good pre season and some bench guys who will do a job. Only thing is if Harden doesnt sign an extensions with Houston then they gave up Martin, Lamb and their picks for nothing

[isguros]

The disturbing thing is; this deal only makes sence for the Rockets if they're extending Harden's contract.

i am not sure deron is top 10 anymore. in fact i am not sure he is a top 5 pg anymore. he has played like ass the last 2 1/2 years. yes his team sucks but he has sucked pretty bad too. i think my top 5 pg's might be paul, rose, westbrook, rondo, irving or nash.
