You might've seen the Harden Herro poll already and use that to clown Herro but it's a poll and people always accidentally click on the wrong option and "babygoat_14" saying that they wouldn't trade Herro isn't a Front Office decision. Also every fanbase has dumb fans
I've seen Laker fans say that they wouldn't trade THT for Lowry, seen a Celtics fan say they wouldn't trade Aaron Naismith for Beal, I've seen 76er fans say they wouldn't trade Maxey or Thybulle for Lowry but no one talks about it/cares. And IDC that Harden > than those guys if..
..You're gonna slander herro for not being traded for harden than be consistent and unbiased and slander those other players that weren't traded.
This poll was tweeted on Decenber 10th. In December Harden trade rumors started getting serious but Harden wasn't reporting to training camp and was going to clubs. He also looked out of shape during that time. You've probably heard of the strict rules that the Heat have and
The front office could have looked at this saying he's not committed to playing basketball and other things like that.
This tweet saying the Heat weren't interested in trading Herro was in December before the season started. Whenever a 
is traded teams don't throw out their best offer ASAP. They wait and see what other teams offer. A few days after the trade went down there was a trade package

This was the trade package and the reason why Miami said no is bc they didn't have the draft assets that the 
wanted. The Nets offered Levert, Allen, Prince, Kurucs and 7 DPs. Miami didn't and still don't have 7 available 1st round draft picks. In 2021, they don't have their

Pick, it goes to OKC (It orginally was PHX's pick in the 
trade but it was traded and landed in OKC. In 2022, 2024, 2025 and 2026 they have a pick. In 2023 THEY DO NOT HAVE A PICK. It goes to LAC BC of the Butler sign and trade. They didn't have the picks to match Brooklyn.

Keep in mind that a lot of teams have been dealing with covid so trading all your depth (6 players) for 1 player could've been a problem. If Harden gets injured or gets covid (He would be out for 10-14 days) than you dont have a lot of options bc you traded all of that depth.
The 3 teams that had shown serious interest were the Heat, 76ers and BKN. Harden wanted to go to BKN but was willing to go to the Heat or 76ers.

Some people also thought that Harden wouldn't be traded to Philadelphia because Stone didn't want to trade Harden right back to Morey
This tweet and BR article also show that Miami eventually showed interested (A week before the trade went down)
This whole rumor has made Herro become one of the most hated young players in the NBA and he hasn't done anything wrong. If you want to blame someone than blame his stans
This the end of this thread. I hope yall now know everything about this.
IDK why people leave out so much context (I also don't get y ppl think that it was Herro for Harden straight up ) If you see a dumbass say the heat didnt trade herro for harden than use this tweet
