    Uhm actually only Horry worked out like that. Maybe because Bullard is a commentator now you’d think he was a contributor to our championships, but he wasn’t. He barely played.

    Remember DeAndre Jordan has a high chance to sign with rockets meaning we can trade away Capella without losing much.

    So the potential starting lineup would be:

    CP3
    Harden
    Tucker
    Love
    Jordan

    I mean we need to make some big changes if we are going to get anywhere.

    Cleveland will take Capela in an instant for Kevin Love. We should consider this if we strike out on some bigger names (and we probably will). Capela is replaceable for the MLE but bigs who can rebound shoot the 3 and pass are very rare and we have a glaring rebounding problem. Love would probably be unplayable against the warriors but you never know he did pull out that stop on Curry in game 7 :p.

    We’re craving for a capable stretch big so count me in.

    Relieved after hearing they 'need to add' instead of 'they are about to add' and 'they already added'.

    Three way trade that puts CP3 in LAL, KLove and Lonzo in Houston, and Capela in Cleveland.

    skillset is almost perfect for us, except for the defense. the rebounding, post scoring, and outside shooting are great and much needed.

    the injuries and that contract though... I'd be on the fence. it depends what we give up to get him.

    KLove would be easier to offload than CP3.

    IMO for CP3 we're in a race against time until his contract becomes immovable. IIRC, Love's contract either declines or stagnates at the end.

    Starts with Harden getting his head out his ass and learning to play without the ball

    yeah, but you’d now be stuck with albatross CP0 and injury prone Kevin Love who is also on a bad deal

    never in my life would I have imagined that Morey would have 2 sh*tty contracts of that caliber on the roster at the same time

    I was talking about a deal where CP3 left and Love came in. I wasn't clear in my post.

    don’t think that’s realistic tho...we’ll be looking at adding Love to a Harden-CP3 core
