MODERATORS
really weird decision by harden. You'd think this is his best chance to lock in a long term deal. Maybe he didn't like the vibes his agent was getting around the market.
I'm not surprised to see him take his option. According to spotrac there's only 5 teams under the cap and 7 teams with practical cap space so not a lot of possible suitors. He gets more money overall by waiting until next offseason to pursue a 2-3 year deal before retiring.
yeah but I'm not sure why he expects next year to be any better in that regard. CBA consequences will be even more set in stone and he'll be another year older.
I wonder if he's thinking that whoever trades for him now is going to be absolutely cornered into extending him next year, since it will presumably be a deep tax contender.
I don't think he's right, but that's my best theory?
