    In terms of a play making/shooting complimenting each other. Plus chemistry between those two is on fire.

    Paul/Harden
    Curry/Thompson
    Dame/CJ

    All say wassup.

    Yes, they play well together, but this is reaching. We are capable of putting together a better backcourt once Paul is healthy, let alone the Blazers and Warriors.

    So Gordon is better than CP3?

    *not gassed Harden/Gordon may be the best backcourt in the league.

    I think Gordon and Paul can be great too, Gordon is literally the key to the championship

    Our guard rotation is the best in the league, when healthy

    Those two didn't say a thing. They kept their mouths zipped tightly.

    I think Gordon at 2 with either Paul or Harden at 1 is a great backcourt combo.

    Once CP3 gets healthy, and then gets comfortable in this offence, 34 plus minutes each of Hardon/CP3/Gordon will dominate and kill most teams by themselves.

    Exactly. The bottom line isn't just that we'll have Harden or Paul on the court at all times. It's that we'll have 2 of the 3 on the court at all times. And that's with each of them resting 16 of the 48.

    I'm not loving it. The ball movement is super lacking and we do not control tempo like we should. I want CP3 back and Gordon back off the bench.

    Not NBA, they are the best in the NBA. no doubt. John Wall can't shoot so he and Beal ain't all that

    Chill dawg, Harden is my favorite player lol. I was disappointed in how he played in the 3rd and beginning of 4th quarter. He was definitely clutch...he just should've had 40.

    I'd personally take Wall/Beal over Dame/CJ, but it's close.

    Beal is a young Eric Gordon. Never really thought about how much they are alike.
