    Hypothetically speaking, would you trade Yao for CP3?

    Not saying this would ever happen, but they are definitely both franchise players.

    Take into account the way the Rockets have been playing w/o Yao, then add CP3 to that equation.

    But then again, what the hell am I thinking...

    18 N A ROW BABY!!!!!!!!!!

    We already have 3 pgs, and only one aging centre after Yao.

    yes because as good as CP3 is, I believe he has even greater potential as a center.

    he can strap on stilts and go to work

    Doesn't really matter who your center is when Chris Paul is on your team though. Landry would average 25ppg.

    No. Small guards don't win in the playoffs. Ask Steve Nash.

    The guy's an incredible player. He's probably top 5 in the league and certainly the best PG. I trade Yao for him in a second and I love Yao.

    Nash took his team three times to conference finals once w/o amare. Look at Isaah. I think CP3 is that good.
