Official 2017 NBA Offseason Thread: Media Days begin

[antidope]

Said this when it was just a rumor...but I don't understand the concerns about fit.

You NEED at least 2 playmakers in today's game. Chris Paul doesn't HAVE to be the #1 playmaker for 48 mins a game. James Harden doesn't HAVE to either.

They're both going to eat. 

This part is true. I'm more worried about the shots that CP3 gets but that's an easy fix.

Well damn

Like I said yesterday, I don't put nothing past no player in the NBA anymore lol

So long CP. Thanks for all you've done for LAC. What a ride.

I hope the Rockets kill it next year.

 

[Peep Game]

Rockets still need to upgrade from Ariza

And Anderson

Crawford and Lou on the same team. Yikes.

Back to dealing with my 6 year old crying. Welcome to many more sports disappointments son. Won't be the last. Sorry for bringing you into this clipper misery

 

[freeze]

Clippers back to being the clippers ...lakers the best team in la again

Clips still way better

"Way" better? without cp3? and soon to be without BG? Negative. "Way" is a reach.

houston is the 2nd seed after this trade

dont quote me 

 

[Chester McFloppy]

As a basketball fan, I cannot wait to see that offense with Chris Paul in it.

As a basketball fan, anyone who looks forward to watching Chris Paul play isn't a basketball fan.

Clips going to have cap space at the very least. No way the garbage Lakers are better than them

 

[casper90403]

CP opted in so he's there for 1 year.

 

[VARNELL HILL]

Clips still way better

Uhh....no they arent 

 JJ definitely not coming back...and assuming Blake is also out of the door...DeAndre Jordan, Lou Williams and Austin Rivers are now your best players

 

[Peep Game]

mark my words. i told yall last week i dont see harden and cp3 working that well together because of the fit. even great players have trouble fitting in into systems that do not play their strengths.

Stopped reading after that

unfortunately, free agents think the clippers play in idaho instead of Los Angeles so they never attract anything good

 

[Maximus Meridius]

That sucks Houston had to trade Beverly. He's a perfect backup/spark off the bench.

 

[diewitsjames]

is there any way that houston recruits PG13 ?

Nah we still have no cap space. Unless Blake too leaves. Then we still have cap space and all of our picks we traded away are lotto protected.

 

[steebie j]

Welcome CP3

 

[D StaXX]

Can't wait to see Houston play.
Also this is karma for DJ pump faking Dallas.

Not as much as you might think. I think they get $34m if cp and Blake leave so they essentially get 60 cents on the dollar

I was thinking this. Should've tried to keep him.

bench minutes, and solid defense. can't ask for much more in a backup PG

Harden never winning MVP now. Playing solo was his best chance 

 

[antidope]

The Clippers just imploded. Lottery team. All bad.

 

[rolaholic]

Blake leaving LA too.

Deandre Jordan as your best player?

Yikes.

Even funnier after all they did to make him stay

 

[B Sox]

Was thinking that he leaves too, but even if he doesn't, you are WAY better than the Lakers. Blake finally gets to play some point forward. He just needs to stay healthy.
