    Thanks Bima, for improving my education about Chris' acquisition. We are indeed very fortunate to have him. I was scared about the 1 year rental. I believe Chris will agree to stay in Houston, if the team gives it's best effort in the playoffs, irrespective of whether they win a Championship or not. I don't know how Morey can acquire Lebron and re-sign CP3 to a long term deals along with Harden for the next season, that too without breaking up everything else. Maybe a podcast with Clutch regarding the current season, and the team's future would be looked into soon.

    One of the true genius things about making the Paul trade in June instead of waiting to try and sign him as a free agent during the summer is that we were able to concentrate on acquiring quality depth. Would we have been able to sign PJTucker, Luc Mbah a Moute, Tariq Black or resigned Nene if we had spent all summer trying to create cap room to sign Paul? No disrespect to the guys we gave up but we have the best bench in the NBA right now.

    We swapped:

    Bev, Harrell, Dekker and Lou

    For

    CP3, Luc, and PJ Tucker.

    No wonder we’re top 5 defense. Oh and CP3 is a better defender than Bev ever was.

    If you watched CP3 chapter 3 on ESPN videos you would think he is here to stay forever. He was soo heart broken to uproot his family to move to Houston, I doubt he would make his kids do that again. Also he bought a freaking mansion in Houston.

    It's funny joe the same negative dudes in this thread about the cp3 trade are the same dudes now saying trade harden. These clearly aren't rockets fans.
