    Because CP3 asked to be traded but then Morey realized that no team wants his albatross contract and he is unmovable. He informed CP3 of this fact so now they are deciding that it's best to deny it and pretend it never happened because nothing was going to change anyway.

    don't be an fool. When Woj, Shams, Guys who are credible state something I will believe it more often than not. NOT this guy! He was on first things first today and said the "petty" things he was referring too were chris paul disturbing Harden's one on one drills in practice?? Chris paul then went too the length to dispute it publicly. Is there disdain? Im sure there is and it's very much necessary as it should be there after the bs we laid out in game 6. If these guys were fine and dandy, I would be the one wanting to trade it and blow it up. Overall, the fact that only a few have said it, another of which was Stephen A who said he wanted out and even he was very hesitant to backtrack on what he said today.

    CP best chance to win is in Houston granted with a 3rd star but he will not get another opportunity like this unless he goes to LA? cant think of another

    When things were great in 2018 and in the offseason, I never heard any of this, Winning solves all.

    They probably have Hartenstein and Vinny Edwards modeling.

    When did the first report of Paul and Harden having issues come out? It seems like the media started putting this on screen after the AD trade to the Lakers was announced.

    This is getting silly. Like, Harden and Paul need to do whatever it takes to squash the rumor mill. Press conference? Harden isn’t an attention seeking person but at some point you can’t let other people just make **** up and attach it to you.

    I was speaking about ISO ball not our record...and what good was it? We didn't win at all...just had another WCF loss to show for it with a ton of excuses.

    I have season tickets and follow the team as much as any. And I don't think the worst...but there is some truth to all this. Where is Harden? He has not come out and said this is all BS. This is the same stuff we heard about Dwight Howard and James not getting along. Later turned out it was true.

    No one likes Dwight so I wouldn’t use that relationship as a baseline for Harden and Paul’s

    ESPN radio said its a foolish contract, no team willing to take CP3.

    Morey is genious, huh?

    Man, I feel absolutely terrible for Chris Paul :(

    All he wants to do is win, but he has to put up with this crap from Harden and the coach. Harden doesn't want to give up ISO for some reason, I wonder why...

    I hope Paul can go somewhere where he can actually win.

    In theory everyone got split personalities, I believe fully Chris is contemplating his future, and some of his brainstormings got leaked.

    And Harden cares more about being the "star" and having the ball in his hands more than winning. I saw it coming as soon as he was traded here and the way he played with Lin.
