    im sure pacers would have taken Beverley , Decker , and harrel with 1st rd pick for george, then we could have signed Chriss outright, i just don't understand the move, as matter of fact we are actually renting him now.

    I suppose it was the fear of losing Paul to San Antonio. It speaks volumes to how bad your from office wanted him and how much they fear him going elsewhere.

    not going to lie... The Paul George trade makes this CP3 deal look a little worse to me.

    The difference being PG is likely to leave after one year and we have CP3 for most likely the rest of his career.

    CP3 is way better than PG. PG has the reputation of a superstar, but actually produces at a typical All-star player level.

    Ehhh, I guess, but the fact is, CP3 is walking to Houston, no matter what. PG is walking to LAL, no matter what. Both teams had to scramble to get anything for a guy out the door with a single suitor.

    If by "pure" you mean one lacking what Westbrook also brings to the table.

    And if by "ever" you are an insipid millennial.

    Yes, lacking of turnovers, lacking of no defense, lacking of inefficiency, lacking of bad decisions, lacking of selfishness.

    Still with this? We couldn't afford to sign him outright and he saved us money this season opting in. Educate yourself

    I agree. Should have held onto that 1st round pick.

    You didn't understand because I was talking about Patterson (six man of the year) it was replay to someone, and you thought i was talking about James Harden.

    So maybe you shouldn't call anyone idiot.

    About Harden I was saying he has a problem with defense and turnovers and it's true.

    These highlights make the point Paul and Harden have the same role and Paul is the least complementary person the Rockets could have added.
