    I just want elite talent next to harden.

    Cp3 is elite MVP HOF talent.

    He's older so that is a concern but harden is younger.

    You never know maybe cp3 likes the fact that he can get off ball more with harden who can easily power a historic offense.

    Not to mention there is a few players who are perfect fits in MDA offense and cp3 and obviously harden are two of them. (Curry would be great also)

    But if you do land cp3 you have two top 10 guys who are top 5 in MVP voting damn near every year.

    Then you become the premier destination for the next available star because your the closest to truely competing with golden state.

    Maybe Paul George or cousins wants in next summer maybe Lebron does truely want to play with his friend cp3 and lessen his load with a guy in harden who can run the offense at the highest level and let Lebron coast till the closing moments and he can take over.

    I mean options like that become realistic and not a pipe dream if you pair cp3 with harden I truely don't understand how any rockets fan or anyone in the organization from ownership down to the players wouldn't want to add cp3.

    It's a no brainer

    I'm sure it would involve bringing in CP3's buddy Melo from NY via trade of Ryno.

    Shades of Olajuwon/Drexler/Barkley

    I'm OK with that, but we would just need someone bigger than Harrell. We just need a lane-clogging C for defensive purposes.

    I actually think THIS is revisionist history. I recall tons of us -- myself included -- calling the series over after Game 5. Not because we lost, but because of how we lost.

    CP3 just creating leverage. Who's going to give a 32 years old injury prone point guard that has never made it pass the 2nd round?

    Answer: Just the Clippers.

    CP3 isn't going anywhere.

    Makes no sense to to Nuggets or Rockets
