    Is this a reliable source or even a site? if so then yes I would be happy with a guy like Paul with an elite turnover assist ratio

    It would be stupid to CP3 full max at his age.

    lmao at Wiltjer as the starting PF, talk about a weak link

    Morey would have to find a way to get 2-Pat here, Wiltjer as a starter isn't a serious option...2-Pat isn't too great as a starter either but we're limited in what we can do

    CP3
    Harden
    Ariza
    2-Pat
    Clint

    If you want James Harden to stay in Houston, you don't really have a choice. As long as Golden State is around, our window is only cracked open slightly anyways. Might as well swing for the fences.

    I think most Rockets fans don't really care what harden wants or if he wants to leave. We don't owe him ****

    It's not about owing him anything. It's about whether you want the Rockets to be relevant or not. Harden is one of the most recognizable faces in the NBA, and despite his performance in Game 6, an MVP-caliber talent. The team recognizes this, and is going to do whatever they can to try and keep him happy here in Houston.

    Yeah, thought it was weird that it listed Wiltjer as our lone PF with Chinanu and Trez at center.

    This site is a successor to Grantland... so 10x more legit than BSPN.

    It's Bill Simmons' new site for sports journalism after ESPN pulled the plug on Grantland. It's fine for opinion pieces.

    This article isn't reporting--it's not trying to say Paul to the Rockets will or won't happen. It's mostly "How can it be done?" (from a cap perspective) and would it be a good idea. Plus some context stuff (Morey saying he had something up his sleeve, etc).

    Why did you post this? Jeremy Lin is now offended. AGAIN. Thanks to you.
