    It would almost be worth it to see the media perception of Westbrook go 180 the nanosecond he was traded to Houston.

    READ the fact that you said you would do the trade makes you a joke

    Trading Paul to Boston for Hayward makes the most sense more than ever...

    @Clutch would have to do some soul searching if we landed brodie.

    Cp3s contract and value is a joke

    WBs contract and value is legit

    This is SO true!!

    Every single time I see Broussard and his "sauces" mentioned I think of that meme with him on the phone with Bart Simpson. Priceless.

    Morey has said thoroughly that he's not trading CP3 so it's not happening. They will roll through the season like it's all good but first sign of struggle truth will come out and Harden will be ready to be traded. This organization is taking that risk oh well.

    would be ok if we got rid of grampa mr president cp3. even if it's for wesbruke.

    but i don't believe for a second that maurlie was close to any trade.

    You also know cap wise this deal is impossible? The Knicks used all the cap for free agents and cannot go over the cap in a trade

    3 way trades are possible like Dragic and James Johnson to OKC while Miami gets CP3 and we get Westbrook.

    Lol Miami would probably be willing to because they want to get Jimmy some help. To me there seems to be a lot of ways to get CP3 outta here if we really wanted to. If Clippers wanted him back we could trade him back there in a three way to get Westbrook without the Clippers even giving up PG13 or Kawhi lol.

    Where does the moniker brodie come from? Legit.
