Rockets: Woj: CP3 traded to the Rockets

[TimDunkem]

Paul would've been better served in San Antone. Don't get how Harden and Paul coexist. And say what you want about CP, he's more of a winner than Harden will ever be.

Basketball isn't that complicated. They'll be fine.

Not exactly a high bar to clear, tbh

Giving up Beverly and Lou..... tbh I bet this makes Houston way worse.

They gave us a first-round pick on top of that, too

Morey

lol sons. This is a no brainer for the Rockets. They have just surpassed the Spurs as the second best team in the West.

lmao....we can still spank this choke dynasty

[Chris Fall]

He only opted in to get more money

"class"

Hey . I informed Uncle Tom and Logo I was going to sign with Houston anyway. This way, they got something out of it. Nailed it. Like a good neighbor.

Me and James. Us two gonna be a problem. We can hit from anywhere.

Not sure how CP3 makes Houston better, or any contending team better for that matter. As I mentioned before, he is way too ball-dominant, and that only takes away the ball from alphas of dominant teams, which is never a good thing. He is not good enough a shooter to be a spot up, he gets abused easily on defense (despite the list of all-D selections), he doesn't necessarily move particularly well without the ball, he is not clutch.

Sure it was a great deal for Houston, but it just doesn't get them any closer to a championship. I never wanted him on the Spurs (not at that price), just like I didn't want LMA at the max. that said, there really aren't too many players I want on the Spurs. I think Gordan Hayward or Patrick Beverley would be great additions to the Spurs at the right price, I would love to have Millsap or Gobert, but those are not going to happen.

Now you sound like me!
Dont overpay #2s
In the end you cant win tbh

[TimDunkem]

^Another one overthinking basketball and stating the obvious that GS are still the favorites.

[TimDunkem]

[Chris Fall]

Lol not a good enough shooter

Shot better from three than pizza face and just as well as as his chef point guard last season, and y'all jerk your chickens over their shooting.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Paul is like Steve Nash + defense. D'Antoni is perfect for that. The Rockets will be great next year.

We finally know what it would have been like if the Suns had traded Kobe for Marion + Raja Bell + Kurt Thomas back in '07.

[Raven]

houston will basically be the least watchable team in history from now on...

[TimDunkem]

[Killakobe81]

smartwork by Morey ...
doubt they get George but they will get someone ...

[Clipper Nation]

We're not paying Choke-P $207 million AND we didn't lose him for nothing. And we've still got Jerry West, while the Lakers have the Magic/Kobe/Pelinka "brain trust." Hold this L, Javier.

And they just got a player and a pick in next year's draft.

We'll see son. CP0 made Blake the player he is. I wanna see the "point forward" Blake for 82 games without CP0 tbh.

[LkrFan]

This trade is worst than our Shaq trade tbh at CN thinking they won set trade

[Chillen]

Two ball dominant players, CP3 was a better fit for the Spurs. It's gonna be funny to see Paul's face when Harden jacks up some crazy three and bricks it. On paper this seems like a good fit and it may or may not work. Not enough to beat the Warriors though, not yet unless Rockets make some other moves.

[TimDunkem]

^That's stating the obvious. At least they're trying to compete and not standing pat like some teams...

[Clipper Nation]

So do I.

[LkrFan]

Prediction: Melo to Rox.

CP0
Beard
Melo

WCF team tbh

[LkrFan]

So do I.

, you should be happy if he can play in 82 games without getting hurt

Hope they get George first.
