    I am interested which teams have touches and ISO plays to offer.

    Maybe there are teams that fall for that honey trap named house hold names.

    I am imagining the trade partner has to go from rebuilding to wait, we can contend within a year.

    It is probably just getting the story out there, I imagine Anthony Davis be like, wait what, I wanted to be the main guy in the news!

    And Kawhi and Durant are still on the front page.

    For those of you saying this is not news, I could not disagree more.

    This is absolutely blowing up right now.

    Starting to think Paul is gone. If the Rockets are dangling his name, Paul will not be happy unless he already wants out.

    Woj on ESPN now saying Paul is on the table but would be tough to move. Might need to take back salary instead of trading into another team’s cap space.

    “Capela most tradable and this name has come up more than anyone”

    "Even Chris Paul."

    Seriously? That's news? With Paul's contract, age, and injury history, Houston should be BEGGING someone to take him off their hands.

    Anyone else feels like this is a smart leak by another team.

    Of course, but to me it seems there's starting to be too much smoke around Paul's name at this point...the rumors on him and Harden, all the various trade rumors came out lately (which i still don't value much tbh), now this...

    He didn’t say he was on the block, but didn’t completely kill the idea.

    Everybody's available at the right price. This isn't happening, but if New Orleans offered AD for Harden tomorrow (and AD was willing to sign long term), do you honestly think Morey would turn it down??

    "The possibility of trading All-NBA guard James Harden is believed to be extremely limited"

    But sounds like they are open to it

    I swear Chris Paul knows things earlier than we do... so dun be worried.

    He has enough connections thruout the league, also LA would welcome him.

    the people that are far more likely gone will be capela/EG over him. and even harden limited scenarios are being thrown in there

    Only if he agrees to cut his salary in half. And somehow I don't see that happening.
