    He’s half the player he was in his prime. Steep drop off from last year. His contract given age and injury history will be one of the worst in the league. Maybe rockets get lucky and can package him with 1st round picks for better contracts like Gordon Hayward or Andrew Wiggins . This is the ryan Anderson situation all over again where we praise Morey for getting out of a bad situation by dumping all our picks to get rid of a bad contract

    Good luck contending after KD leaves

    Yeah, this is a good point. I rag on Chris Paul as much as anyone, but Clint has been the bigger problem so far this series.

    We should not see Chumpert again in this series. If we do, it will tell you a lot about DA's coaching. And, yes, Capela has been an even bigger disappointment than Paul.

    Yeah, that guy. You know the one who lost the three best players on his team. Had a starting lineup that featured a G league call up who got cut twice, an undersized PF who was rotting on the bench and got waived and a hated PG/SG that was waived as well.
    Same guy dragged that merry band of Shanghai Shark candidates back from the dead.

    dribble the clock out and pass to a role player at the end of the shot clock.

    -struggle to drive by opposing centers on the perimeter
    -commit offensive fouls by running into guys

    40 million for 3 more years, that’s the point.

    Starting to get the same feeling with Chris that I have with Clint.

    Just not made to play the warriors anymore.

    Still can be great against a lot if not most other teams, but he can’t get by anyone on the warriors.

    I might be on board with these CP3 "who's laughing now?" bumps if I hadn't seen him quit on us with my own eyes in last year's playoffs.

    I don't think this was a "who's laughing now?" bump but rather a preemptive bump to that kind of bumps...
    From the last page alone you can see cf been fed up with him perhaps even more than being fed up with russ now...

    Oh he quit now. Last I saw he played like he didn’t want to go home in the last game while He and harden did what they could. And the rest being garbage. Oh that’s right trying to rely on fringe nba players to beat GS. Just laughable. Imagine giving that team some depth like Jeff green who they should have gone after a long time ago.

    you know what quit looks like, the team tonight. Led by a garbage low iq guard next to harden. They stayed up and watched film together allegedly. Boy did that turn out great

    Good thing the geniuses blew it up after KD/Iggy leave and Klay is done for a season.
