The Rockets sent Kevin Martin, Jeremy Lamb and future draft considerations to the Thunder for Harden, sources told Y! Sports. Along with Harden, the Thunder will send Cole Aldridge, Lazar Hayward and Daequan Cook to the Rockets.

As part of the deal, the Thunder will receive "significant" future draft picks from Houston, a source told Y! Sports.

Like they need anymore.

What a dumb decision by OKC... They got an injury prone guard along with other pieces for harden. They could have gotten more IMO

I don't know.... Harden did disappear during the finals.

Martin is a proven scorer, and Lamb is great prospect IMO.

2 1st rounds picks as well.....,

Would rather have Kevin Martin, Jeremy Lamb and 2 first round picks, one which belongs to the Raptors than pay Harden 60 mill

Kinda funny that the Thunder got more from trading Harden than the Magic got from trading Dwight Howard. Value of Harden compared to Dwight isn't even close

Lamb is a potential all-star . He couldn't have fell into a better situation
