    The Clips would be stewpeed to give up the little depth they have for a 34 yr old.

    I never said I believe what onSMASH is saying, but I bet there’s plenty of posters here who would believe them with little hesitation since they still seem to easily put their faith in randoms online.

    They would have to give up Mo Harkless, Lou Williams and bunch of irrelevant players after that and it would work. Then the Clippers get a true point guard which would take them to a higher level.

    In other words: it's made up and not even remotely true. Moving on.

    It was your guy Morey who gave CP3 the contract. Blame should lie on Morey but of course you won't blame him because you think he can do no wrong

    Yeah. You have to question why the Thunder have not come close to winning anything with a core of George/Westbrook/Adams .... yet we are going to trade a successful core for Westbrook and Adams?

    Had we gotten Butler and decided to target Adams, fine.

    There is a common denominator and it isn’t Paul George and I doubt it is Steven Adams.

    Good luck getting James Harden 25 shots a game with Westbrook on the Rockets. Not to mention Westbrook defensively is terrible.

    How about this MAVS, Rockets and OKC trade, but not sure if OKC getting too much or too little in what would be a pure salary dump.

    Mavs - get CP3
    Rockets - get Westbrook
    OKC - gets Hardaway (18+mil, player option in 20/21) & 1 or 2 first round pick from Mavs & 1 or 2 from Rockets
