We should really be watching the other LA team too.

CP3 has a lot of power in that organization, including getting players he wants on his squad signed.

He's not giving that up.

 

I'm pretty sure CP3 will be staying at LA. The improvement from last year was pretty good. If they were on a decline this year compared to last, I would imagine him leaving but not right now.

 

It's a lot of money for CP3 to leave on the table, hard to see him doing that when he's already playing on a good team. I mean everyone knows Harden > Blake now, but Blake is still an all star level PF, much as I might hate him.

 

Why would CP3 leave?

Big market and nice city to live in.

Blake Griffin is a young star that is pretty good, not many players that are better than him that he could pair up with.

They need to trade Bledsoe for a good piece but seems like he's content to be where he's at.

 

I do hope the Clippers end up 4th or 5th, I would like to see the Rockets end up and 6th and play Memphis as the 3.

 

make our team even smaller, great idea

 

Harden says hello.

 

Keep dreaming.

 

Nah....harden needs the ball to be effective and cp3 wouldn't want that. Ask lin.

 

more $$$ + LA > possibly playing on better team + HOU

 

Let's just be happy with what we have. Youth at every starting position, most back-up positions and a lot of time to develop chemistry. I'm fine with Lin and Asik at the 1 and 5. Neither one has gotten this much burn so give them a season to get used to it. I guarantee they'll both get better.

Howard is NOT leaving LA. And even if he does decide to light a match to $30 million, he's not coming here. Spurs, Grizz and even LAC are on the older side. Give us 2-3 years we'll be with the Thunder and Nuggets as the dominant Western conference teams.

 

If CP3 wanted to play with someone just like himself he'd go play with Cliff Paul

 

ok.. so if Dwight Howard decided to join the Rockets this summer in free agency and was the first free agent to decide on a team, would chris paul really consider joining the rockets? i was thinking about that tonight... i actually think that he would consider

 

I'm more intrested in Memphis getting the 3rd seed and we're finishing the regular season at 6. We have a legit chance to knock-out Memphis in first round.

 

if CP3 and DH12 is here Harden will be placed as a 6th man to maximize his production while the rockets get a defensive stopper at 2 spot... same situation in OKC... I dont think harden will like that...

and if CP3, DH12 and Harden line up is good on paper but this is not NBA2k... hardens production will decrease while our perimeter defense will suck... and it will be a miracle to still have our young players (parsons, dmo, jones, trob) after the trades...

usually superstars joins other superstars after they have won a chip (wade+bron, hakeem+drexler, shaq+malone+peyton, kobe+nash+howard etc)

 

Clippers are playing with Willie Green-Crawford-Billups at sg rotation. And their perimeter defense do not suck, if we ever got CP3 and Harden playing together it means Parsons have to return his last year form at defensive purposes.

 

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

 

His defense is much better than D Mo's defense ever will be.
