Strictly as a backup that will never be on the floor together with Fox.
He would be a fantastic backup PG if he accepted that role.

Hope not
He'll be 41 during the playoffs next year.
As a 15 to 20 mpg backup PG, he would be ideal, imho. If we really want to compete next season (and we better do), we need to have as many wins influencing veterans as we can. CP3 is one of those.
I’ve enjoyed watching CP3 this year…. but…. a championship team can’t have him starting at this point. Father Time is a scoundrel.
I’d be happy to have him as a backup to Fox. Max 15-20 MPG. I’m not sure I’d trust Mitch to not start him though.
If he’s content with being a 15-20mpg backup sure
As an assistant coach to Becky, sure
If Mitch is still around making decisions, this team is doomed.
It's a no for me if he will insist on being a starter, with starter minutes. Im ok with him as a back up for 10-15minutes. I hope he keeps his ego in check and accept that it's time for him to give his slot to Fox and Castle
I'd like him as a coach, but he can make more money as a player than as an assistant. Pay him as a backup PG, but have his role as a "coach on the court". He's also valuable as a coach who can jump in the game and actually play as needed (for depth).
If he doesnt demand to start, yeah, keep him in house.
What are you going to tell him, you can't start or get so many minutes anymore?
Especially if he signed to be a starter.
Absolutely not. We don't really get much out of Chris Paul pick and roll cause he virtually never goes all the way to the rim, so the big never has to drop down to guard him. His defense is non existent which means there is no way you can play him with Fox. Hard pass.
As most have said, in a bench role I'd keep him.
I am okay with him replacing Mitch
Don’t know if you watch the games, but at least 75% of the time when the ball is inbounded to him, he gives it up to Castle to bring up and initiate the offense. He’s already taking a back seat,and becoming a spot up shooter much of the time.
No. He doesn't pair well with Fox because he's too small, and it's time to give whoever's going to be the back up PG more minutes and more experience. The CP3 experiment was fine, but I feel like it's time to move on.
I hope not tbh. Appreciate his contributions this season but the backup PG role needs to go to Wesley with Castle taking over at stretches when Fox is resting. CP3 is just too old. He's cooked. Dude can barely move out there and can't get by anyone, even bigs. A 15-20 min role as a backup might not be terrible but I doubt he'll accept it and it's time to let Wesley get his shot at the role imo.
