    At this moment in time, i do not want to see CP3 taking the starting position over gordon.
    Gordon has been playing too good with harden.
    What's the chances of CP3 being a 6-man and running the 2nd unit without much complaining?

    Not very high. Pringles will make sure they get their time on the court together. I doubt it will be in a starting role for Gordon though. He’s been great but our bench needs that punch back.

    Terrible, terrible thread title. I was expecting to see an article stating that he was going to be playing on Tuesday. If you want to pose a question about something, OP, actually pose the question in the title. Don't give us a generic, ambiguous headline that makes us think something totally different.

    Regarding OP's actual point, I'm not completely opposed to Paul coming off the bench, but I think it's kind of pointless. Harden, Paul and Gordon will get their 30+ minutes a game regardless of who starts and who comes off the bench, and Gordon will get minutes next to both Harden and Paul. But you don't go out of your way to acquire a Hall of Famer like Paul and then ask him to come off the bench. He'll be starting when he gets back, and the rest of the roster will need to adapt accordingly.

    Ginobili was never on CP3’s level...CP3 did not come here to be a 6th man...it’s not happening

    Was the most exciting thing about this team not CP3 and Harden sharing the backcourt together? Did I just imagine all of the hype this summer? Now because CP3’s been out for a while, him coming off the bench is actually a topic. Y’all need to stop with these knee jerk reactions. There was a thread on here saying that CP3 was better than Harden just a couple of weeks ago, now we’ve got 1 about him being a 6th man. C’mon man.

    Harden and CP3 have played in like 4 games together, u don’t even know how it will work yet. Plus, there will be plenty of time for Ego to play with Harden or CP3 in the backcourt.

    I'm not the type to go around telling people "This is a stupid thread title and you know it", but this is a stupid thread title and you know it.

    Can we change title to "CP3 off the bench?"

    That at least is worth debate.
