    Maybe Paul ends up in Miami? They don't have many future picks, but do have good young players like Adebayo and Winslow.

    Detroit is another possibility - bring back Lob City.

    Did CP3 and Blake Griffin not get on?

    Chris Paul doesn't get on with anyone who isn't Lebron.

    At least CP3 got his team mates involved

    How does that help Houston? They probably drop to the 7/8 position in the West now.

    Morey is always looking to rejig things, and he is under pressure from an impatient owner. If the rumours are to be believed CP3 and Harden weren't getting on, Russ represents a younger option and an end (at least for now) to the bad blood. Problem is he can't shoot 3's like CP3 could, isn't as adept at assists, and players like him that rely on their physicality tend to fall off a cliff in terms of production

    2019/20 rule change: Houston gets to play with two balls to keep Russ & Harden happy.

    Russ is a better player than CP3, so on a very basic level the Rockets should be a better team.

    Will that actually happen? I'm not sure.

    ESPN article about OKC.

    The rise and fall of OKC, the NBA's small-market miracle

    The rise and fall of OKC, the NBA's small-market miracle

    With Russell Westbrook and Paul George gone, the next era of OKC basketball sends the franchise somewhere it has never been.

    I think this is great news for the Rockets and in particular Harden. Harden will adjust his game as will Westbrook.

    Looks like OKC can't move Chris Paul immediately, and both sides are receptive to the idea of him staying until AS break or even for the season. This is great news for Steven Adams who should be a major beneficiary of CP3's assist abilities

    Bahahahaha. Bahahaha. Suuuuuure they will. This is a disaster waiting to happen with the union of two ball-hogs.

    @Sneakdefreak yeah I have seen this scenario this morning mentioned by several people on social media. Not sure how likely it actually is though.

    Paul would work for OKC if they had another go-to player but they have absolutely no one.

    Wait......it's all coming to fruition........Adams is about to become a 30-10 player ............

    I'll see myself out

    In all seriosuness I'd be surpised if Adams didn't average 18/10 this season.

    Tim Duncan is back with the San Antonio Spurs, this time as an assistant coach under Gregg Popovich.

    Jul 23, 2019  /  01:55

    Fundamental move: Duncan joins Spurs' staff

    "It is only fitting, that after I served loyally for 19 years as Tim Duncan's assistant, that he returns the favor," Gregg Popovich said in a statement.

    Im not a GS fan but would be cool if all three of Clay/Steph/Draymond got drafted, won championships and finished at GS.
