Holy shit Harden and Westbrook reunited. Nobody is ever gonna touch that ball if they aren't named Russ or James.
He should be thrilled someone stepped-up to save him from doing something dumb
They aren't about to pay him 100+mil not to play, and CP0 isn't going to give that money up.
Okc best player is Steven Adams lol.
End of an era indeed.
I truly believe CP3 will want out of OKC for a title contender... but nobody wants him.
Miami would definitely be interested.
Maybe the Knicks to stay relevant.

So basically:
Houston has become the OKC of a few years ago but without Durant (the team that Harden fled)
OKC has become the Clippers without Blake (basically the team that CP3 fled)
The Lakers have become the Pelicans but with Lebron
The Pelicans have become the pre-Lebron Lakers
The last decade of MVP winners (before the most recent one, Giannis) have played with another MVP (though this was true before this trade as well, though now all have played with another MVP after both won MVPs).

Maybe the Thunder can pay CP3 5 million a year for the next 22 years.
Way more than that. He's owed (if you include his player option) $120 million over the next 3 years. That's how much guaranteed money he has left. That's more than Kawhi Leonard just signed for. Why in the fuck would anybody entertain a buyout?
Picks until 2026
Chris Paul is 34
Chris Paul will remember these lies.
LMFAO
ALRIGHT THEN
this year is gonna be fucking amazing
at least we got our chip out of the way before complete fuckery has overrun the entire association
Quiet you
Was listening to Kurupt calling out names. ViewtifulJC knows the song
Let's go. I'll be there when the 🚀 crashes, but it'll be quite the ride
This is going to be so bad for Houston. Like Russ is fucking worthless without the ball. Far worse (and way less efficient) than CP3 from that regard, and we all saw how the Harden/CP3 marriage ended. A lot of the luster is coming off of Morey. Homie just doubling down on his fuck ups and killing the rest of Harden's prime here. This is going to be awful.
Masai be like:
Hey Presti, I'll take CP3's contract off your hands but we want four of your eight first rounders.
Presti: Ok
Masai: Fuck no I was joking stop it.

Did they bother to ask Harden?
The most important question... now that he's over the hill and in purgatory, does State Farm take away the keys to their commercials?
This feels like Morey throwing shit at the wall because he had backed himself into a losing corner
So Dame hits that shot in Game 7 against OKC and it leads to....
- Tension between PG and Russ, which drives PG to demand a trade to the Clippers
- PG going to the Clippers makes Kawhi go to the Clippers
- PG being traded puts OKC in rebuild mode which leads to Russ being traded to Houston
Dame fucked up the whole league with one shot

If Presti is joking about winning, they're going to bottom out, not hit the salary floor, have decent picks, get decent picks when Houston implodes (and if the Clippers implode), and Presti can work some magic. Ideally they'd have gotten out of any super max contract but it's not like they were going to use that salary cap space to rebuild in the next three years anyway. If the fanbase can accept that after being a contender for the entire franchise's existence, then they'll be in pretty good shape. Or they can move back to Seattle.
so now we know this was legit
and you're gonna substitute paul for a guy who's even more ball-hungry? wat
houston is never winning a damn title with a harden/westbrook iso offense. we just saw that with westbrook/george and westbrook/durant!

It made no sense to gut the roster and bank on Jimmy and Brodie figuring shit out. Lord help us if one of them got hurt. It'd a wrap.
Let Jimmy and the kids go wild. Whiteside is gone, so Bam is free to do his thing and get all the minutes that he needs. Point Justise!
Lebron would have like 5 or 6 rings and would be undisputed GOAT if Curry and friends didn't fuck his homecoming up.
I lied because we in the thread definitely won.
Gonna be such a fun season.
