    if Morey somehow trades for Paul George after acquiring CP3 then his suit and tie should be hung in the rafters

    I know we tend ignore the Jazz, but there was another decent pick and roll point guard that played well until his late 30's. He also is the career leader in assists.

    Really, really want Reddick in the Dekker role backing up Ariza. Then get Millsap. And LETS GO

    Too imbalanced IMO. We need a front court presence. Millsap or bust.

    They should just put his picture up there in the rafters. We all know which picture I'm talking about.

    The part the guy forgets is that neither guy shot a ton of off ball catch and shoot three pointers.

    But one can certainly hope both players get a lot more next year.

    The reality now is that SO MUCH of this is on MDA. For a guy that just completely reinvigorated his career, this is as big a challenge to him as turning Melo into an MDA type system player. MDA better be putting in some late nights.

    That isn't gonna happen. You can't play with 2 bigs that don't space the floor in today's NBA, and especially not in MDA's system.

    Beverly probably going to be a huge culture change for the Clippers...i trade DeAndre and start the rebuild around Blake and i think Jerry West will eventually help build a really tough team.

    The only reason why I voted no was because Bev got traded. But there was no other way to get it done. I love Bev, and I liked Lou a
    lot, and saw promise in Dekker too, but Chris Paul is a big catch for our Houston Rockets. I'm happy that Harden wants to play with
    Chris. I hope we can get a PF, I'm not keen on Melo, but Paul George would be all right with me, provided if he agrees to an extension with Houston first. I do feel that Paul George might not fit in well with us, because of two ball handlers in Harden/Chris though.
    Is there any protection on the first round pick? And is it, the 2018 pick?

    I hope the league office won't sabotage the deal this time. Welcome to Houston, Chris Paul!

    I don't know exactly but Nash played almost till he was 40 I'm sure, and was still very good outside of his last year as a Laker.

    Chris Paul's defense will be the first thing to go unfortunately.
