    3 and D guy, 2 years 21 million isn't very much. Instantly the best defender on the team. Can back up the 2 and the 3. We need to fill out the roster. I'm not crazy about him even though I'm a GT guy, but he could have a role on this team. The contract isn't as terrible as folks are making it out to be.

    If he's not part of a bigger deal then just trade harden lol

    Morey's message to the Thunder: We see your Paul George, now we will raise you with Sherbert.

    If we keep him can we stipulate that he get rid of that ridiculous hair style?

    Need a sweetener to take this bum's contract. I also don't see a player option on any site.

    Please no. He is awful and doesn't seem to know that he is. We shouldn't be freeing up the Cavs to be able to resign Korver. We should sign Korver.

    yeah he plays good defense, but at $11 mil? ...for two more years? That's what Eric Gordon is making.

    Hopefully CP3 can get the most out of Shumpert. He's done a lot with some other lower tiered wings in LA

    Morey better have some more moves up his sleeve because if all we're able to do with the momentum of acquiring CP3 is trade for Shump, manage to re-sign Nene, and a few more smaller moves then smh

    I'll wait to see what Morey has cookin tho, it better be something delicious

    I think you all underestimate Chris Paul's ability to make guys like Shumpert into at the very least, average level offensive players. Chris Paul isn't a one on one Kyrie Irving player, he gets people in the flow of the game.
