    Yeah, a restriction in which he has to play enough games in order get his money.

    Pretty much this. Not rocket science really. A backup PG should have been a priority to protect the CP investment. It wasn't and the Rockets got burned. Not sure how many more times Morey has to be slapped in the face with this reality.

    For the rest of CP's career in Houston he needs a SERVICEABLE backup PG. The ENTIRE time.

    Maybe CP3 needs to stretch that leg out against the scorer table just like James does right before the game starts. Wouldn't it be amazing if something that simple worked?

    Paul needs to reinvent his body and workout regimen.
    Drop weight, strengthen target muscles, rest based off realtime data, retrain kinetics etc.

    No he should have a contract restriction. If he misses X games his contract is cut in half.

    He needs to ask his boy LeBron what he is doing.

    With the number of hamstrings CP3 gets, they have to think there is something wrong with his body mechanics

    If I had it my way we would shut him down until after the All-Star break and cap him at 30 MPG until the playoffs.
