    Boo.

    Would rather have Paul George.

    More dynamic player and will match up better against Warrior's perimeter players.

    We can stick Paul George on Durant defensively.

    Millsap is meh...not going to be the difference maker.

    I absolutely hate Melo but a lineup of CP3 + Harden + PG + Melo + whoever would drive GSW nuts on defense.

    Cash consideration is the true winner out of all this

    I don't know if that speculation is true. Chris Paul, James Harden, Daryl Morey and Les would unanimously pull the trigger if it meant George, even if Ariza helped recruit. Right now, I think Morey would trade his own family if he had to imo.

    To those who have reservations about Paul being a whiny little biatch, flopping, etc - remember, that's only a factor when he's on the other team. Now he's gonna be our whiny little biatch, and we will happily welcome every little flop that results in freethrows or penalties on the other guys...

    Off the table once Bricky Rubio became available on the trading block.

    My source at the Mavs tells me that Magic is desperately trying to get George to LA now that the CP3 domino has fallen.

    We need to pull off one of those synchronized flops like the Jazz did against us those MFers.

    So weren't the "supermaxes" supposed to help teams retain players and help avoid the concentration of stars?? If that's the case then Morey and CP3 are really undermining the new CBA with this trade, not that I'm complaining lol, just wondering how the league will respond to this.

    The Clippers were not willing to give the full max to Chris Paul. Apparently he and Doc are not buddies anymore.
