This article suggest Al Jefferson Going to Houston, to pair up with James Harden is a good idea.
I kinda wanna laugh at the idea, what do you guys think?

I don't have to read it... it's a great idea.

Yes, please. Anywhere but here. He might actually be a decent role player in Houston next to Harden, but would get a lot less touches there with Harden taking most of the shots. It would be interesting to see Al play without being the focus of the offense.

or said differently.. his lack of defense being even more on display.

With Asik there, Al can just focus on offense, no?

I've said for awhile that I think he ends up in Houston or Charlotte. If I'm Houston, I don't touch him. If I'm Charlotte, I would LOVE to have him.

The notion was proposed about Harden being the offensive focus.. thus my post.

You mean because Charlotte is stupid?

I doubt it, Al with Favors sucked on defense, and Favors is a better defender than Asik. Al is so bad on defense that he would be on a below average defensive team even if he were paired with Bill Russell.

Yes!! The notion that we need to read this is crazy. Houston if listening.... Al is better then Howard.

I always wanted to see how that would work with the jazz. less al main focus in the offense and divide whats left with the young guys.

Interesting idea.

Yeah sadly it never happened. Al was the main focus of the jazz offense for every single second he played of his jazz career.

Interesting idea.
