    Yes, CP3 is a very strong leader and gives a lot and expects a lot.

    James has never had a teammate like Paul that has accomplished a lot and also is so regimented.

    Not as embarrassing as Daryl Morey not being able to close the deal when he held all the cards.

    Technically Melo held the cards and folded early.

    Really the only outlet that does not believe in streaming?

    Must be outdated.

    There is still the possibility that Westbrook never signs his extension with the Thunder and OKC flips all three of their guys at the deadline to start the rebuild.

    Not getting Melo was a speed bump, not a brick wall.

    I think Morey told CP3 that he'd try to get Melo, but only at a certain price...I think he would break down to CP3 who could be lost from the rotation and not make the team worse overall after the addition of Melo

    OKC did not have to give up players the caliber of Ariza or Gordon from their rotation for Melo...Kanter was unplayable for them in the playoffs and McBuckets has been a bonafide scrub so far in his career

    you can say plenty about him. If its actually warranted. In this case, we obviously aren't crying as much as you are.

    his track record speaks for itself as far as being a GM. is he perfect nope? but hes as good of a GM as it gets.
