You seem to think he has more value than 17, how about you share what value you think he has instead of trying to confront me on mine? We can then agree to disagree and move on.
That was in response to your talking about a "feeling" that I was trying to voice his potential rather than his value, as if the two don't at least coexist for a rookie. You said that his value hasn't increased since putting up favorable production to OG's second season. You were wrong about the two season's being analogous. I proved that, yet you didn't change your opinion or "feeling".
To answer you, he's definitely worth more than his draft spot of 17. IMO the starting asking price would be #10, probably involving a third team who adds talent to the trade to HOU with our taking on a bad contract from the third team.

I wonder how Philly pivots if Harden really walks. Will Embiid demand out? Is there another star that could become available. Maxey (and Harris) for Beal? Same for Lillard? Are their contracts really any better than Harden one?
I think Maxi/Harris for Dame makes a lot of sense for both franchises.
