    Sorry, but any scenario in which CP3 is traded is a waste of time because

    1) It is not happening
    2) We're closer to the title with CP3 than without him

    The 4th one is the dumbest **** I’ve seen in a while. Why would the knocks trade the 3rd pick for Chris Paul. And I like Chris Paul.

    yo, I can’t take any of those trade proposals seriously

    whoever wrote this article seems to have forgotten that CP0 is no longer a superstar and has 1 of the worst contracts in the league

    I'd be happy with Celtics pick this year, and Hayward's contract, considering they are probably losing both PG's

    Literally none of these trades are even remotely realistic without the possibility of Morey drugging the other team’s GM during negotiations.

    Man, someone reported that "Paul and Harden had an intense conversation after an elimination game"

    And now there are dozens of articles speculating about the death of the Rockets across the internet on major outlets.

    Rockets wouldn't trade Paul, especially while they are trying to convince Butler that their word is gold.

    But, if you can trade him, trade him for literally any combination of players anyone is willing to give us that doesn't include John Wall.

    Honestly we’d get worse with every single one of those trades

    Rocket players reported to Stephen A. Smith on ESPN that the "dust up" rumor is bogus
