    I've always detested CP3.... I hate flopping!

    but he's now a Rocket, so he's starting with a clean slate with me... now if he cries, flops and acts like a little b****... it will get old fast and he will turn me back into a detractor... but we'll see how it goes... hope springs eternal....

    maybe - just maybe.. CP3 will ease up on the flopping and harden will curtail the initiating contact trying to draw fouls... that's my hope... fingers crossed - otherwise it could get real annoying to watch...

    I'll admit I was opposed to the trade before it happened, especially after Hardens awesome year at PG last year.

    But to be honest, this is an awesome move.

    When a superstar is knocking at your door, you open that door regardless of who he is. The fit comes after

    At least he has talent unlike Derek Fisher.

    I don't like the dirty plays like nut punching or flopping, but I like the Rockets winning, so it's kinda a wash.

    The "fit," you say? I was thinking of something else.

    Nope, I have thought him a punk his entire career, he flops, he hits guys in the nuts, just not someone I liked as a player.

    Respected his game but he nuts up in tight situations.

    Sigh - he is now a Rocket though, so I will root for him in the Crimson and Mustard like he is my own son.

    As I understand it, he left money on the table to come here.
    That makes me a fan in spite of whatever amount of dislike I may have had.
    If he gives it all he's got for our team, what's not to like?

    CP3 is a Rocket now, so I'm rooting for him. I'm not a fan yet until I see what he does for the Rockets. I really hate the "he chose us" argument to automatically being a fan of a player.

    I was always impressed with CP3's overwhelming will to win when he was in NOLA.

    Not a fan of the whining and past dirty plays.

    Omg how can you guys forget how he injured Yao Ming and walker over him like a punk ass biatch while he was in New orleans.

    I now love Paul and hate Beverley.

    Beverley is a flopping fake hustle tough guy who's injury prone. Yet, he calls himself Wolverine. Fake news! Sad!

    I hated his flopping. Still do. I'm not happy that he chose us for only 1 year. I'm rooting for him, but I hope he will cut down on the flopping part.

    Between Harden and CP3... Teams/Fans will hate the Rockets.

    Players going to be fouling out left and right. PLAYMAKERS.

    One of the players who I hated the most over the years. Arrogant, whiny, flops too much...but a helluva good point guard.

    All is forgiven.
