都是今天的消息，一個是火箭老闆Tilman Fertitta傳出有意退休James Harden的背號，另一個是Bleacher Report有篇文章指出有關Harden本季在被火箭交易之前的脫序表現其實不只是表面上看起來的樣子，還有一段火箭和籃網早就談妥交易但火箭臨時反悔衍生出的各種枝微末節。
而今天，是James Harden在被火箭交易到籃網後，首度重返休士頓的日子。
現場沒有爆滿觀眾，無法聽見太多無論是歡呼聲或是噓聲，但火箭製作的致敬影片，其實已經說明了一切——無論最後我們怎麼分手的，但過往這段絕對堪稱「Harden時代」的日子，火箭由衷感謝Harden的貢獻。
的確如此，不論喜不喜歡Harden這個人、不論要怎麼採信Harden最終離開火箭的肥皂劇，都無法抹滅在這八年多，Harden的確把他的生涯精華、最傑出的表現都奉獻給了火箭，火箭在這段日子拿下隊史最佳戰績、Harden成為史上第三個拿下年度MVP的火箭球員，都是個人與團隊雙贏的結果，唯一可惜的就是沒能奪下總冠軍。
但到了如今，總是得將個人喜好與成就肯定分開來談，那火箭和Harden，的確在2012到2020年間留下了一段精彩。

...Rockets attempt to build from a lottery team into a playoff threat. Owner
Tilman Fertitta has labeled this iteration of Houston’s construction as “
Phase 2” of the team’s retooling from its past championship window starring
James Harden. All three of Fertitta, Udoka and Rockets general manager Rafael
Stone mentioned Houston’s bounty of cap space during Udoka’s introductory
news conference on Wednesday, and it seems quite apparent the Rockets hold
motivations to add significant talent this offseason.
Houston’s long-rumored potential reunion with Harden, the 76ers guard who
holds a player option for 2023-24, in addition to the Rockets’ chances at
landing other primary free agents and top-billing trade targets this
offseason, were repeated themes throughout Houston’s conversations with
coaching candidates, sources said. Middleton has been another potential
target discussed throughout the Rockets’ coaching search, sources said.
Udoka spent time with Harden as an assistant during the All-Star guard’s
first season in Brooklyn. And Celtics All-Star Jaylen Brown, whom rival
executives are closely monitoring as he becomes extension eligible this
summer, has been one of Udoka’s most public supporters after Boston
suspended the coach following an improper relationship with a Celtics
staffer. The Rockets, sources said, also addressed the idea of including
second-year guard Jalen Green, the No. 2 pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, as part
of a package for acquiring established star talent.
...火箭正在嘗試從樂透區球隊變成季後賽球隊。老闆Tilman Fertitta說火箭已經來到
自從James Harden離開後重整的"第二階段"。無論是老闆、新總教練Udoka與總管 Rafael
Stone在記者會上都提到了火箭的薪資空間紅利。很顯然的，他們有動力在這次休賽期買入
更好的球員。
火箭除了透過自由球員簽約以外，另一個便是透過交易買來被流傳已久的76人後衛James
Harden(23-24球員選項)。而他也一直是火箭遴選新教頭時與人選對話的主題之一。公鹿
前鋒Kris Middleton則是另一個火箭在教練遴選時時常討論的另一個名字。Udoka曾經在
James Harden在布魯克林的時候做過他的助教。且賽爾提克全明星Jaylen Brown(另一個各
大總經理本休賽季都在關注的目標)也在賽爾提克禁賽Udoka時公開且大聲地為他發聲。根
據內線情報，火箭已經在考慮將二年級生同時也是2021榜眼的後衛Jalen Green作為交易包
裹的一部份來換回已經有成就的球星。
短評或心得：
漁夫放出的消息 先看看
