I would love Julius Randle or Aaron Gordon and have Serge Ibaka as a consolation prize if we can’t get 1 of the top 2. As far as cap implications, both those guys are restricted free agents. Can we sign and trade as long as we stay under 129 mill? Also would it be conceivable to try and get a deal done with Clint before he signs a max offer sheet to keep his salary around 18-20 mill. Rid Anderson’s contract via trade or stretch, sign CP to a 3 yr max and still have enough to bring back Trevor, Luc, and one of those players? I honestly feel like all we are missing is a little more playmaking from the front court and Julius and Aaron checks those boxes.
He’s referencing CP3 introducing himself as Chris Paul, Houston Rockets right now, when asking Harden a question at his MVP press conference.
The night Harden got his mvp. After, whem he was at the podium, Chris Paul asked a question pretending to be a reporter, just trying to be funny. Except when he asked the question, it sounded like he hadn't thought what he was gunna say all the way through, and he really didn't sound like he wanted to say he was with the Houston Rockets, then he actually said, "right now".
LA is primed destination but won’t go at alone as single star. He needs a Robin and stars who come over are gonna have take a backseat, thus the Kyrie situation.
if Harden truly didn’t want Lebron, I can’t blame him if I were Harden, I wouldn’t want Lebron either, especially when I just won MVP and was so close to leading a team to a title...if we had gotten smashed by GS and it looked like we were absolutely no match for them then maybe he would’ve been all in on Lebron...it would be much more fulfilling to be the main guy who brings a title to Houston rather than riding on Lebron’s coattails while you’re still in the prime of your career
That makes me not want to see Space Jam 2. Also, why go through the drama if it is predetermined. He is fuc*ing with multiple fan bases. That might end up working against him and the movie.
LeBron is heading to Los Angeles to be a movie star and part-time basketball player. He knows his days of winning championships are over.
I hate this kind of stuff. It's ok to share the info. But don't expose our insiders. They might quit posting here. If cyberx wanted it on twitter, he could have posted it there himself.
Maybe the "still in championship mode" talk was about his upcoming intergalactic battle with the Monstars for the Galaxy's championship
So what’s next.... ???no need in beating a dead horse. Who and what are our options to improve this team now???
I didn't sound like a joke. It sounded like he wasn't sure what to say. They were prolly drunk though, so that's something to consider. And he is a free agent who coulda been using the moment for leverage. It sure didn't sound like that in real time tho.
Maybe, because he is so competitive and knew his destination already, he was more “upset” about knowing he wouldn’t be competitiveness next season. THUS, “I still wanna be in compete mode”
