    And I said this before but with Chris Paul we not talking about giving up a few Ms for a ring, we talking giving up 70 of them. Id advise him to go for the money. Thats him setting up generations of his family.

    It was the same with Melo. I think Melo got an additional 50 million to stay with the Knicks. As a Knicks fan that wants Melo off the team, I still cant sit here and say that was the wrong move.

    Im sure CP3 and Melo both want to win, but giving up 50+ gauranteed Ms for a chance at a ring where if you go up for a rebound and land awkwardly and twist your ankle, you lose the shot at the ring is not worth it. Atleast not for me.

    It's time to have a sit down with isiaah thomas.6th man on a discounted deal or get webster outta there.Defense is way better without him on the floor he was getting exploited the 1st 2 games and it was a snowball turning into an avalanche situation.If boston had someone like hayward,pg or jimmy right now this series would be winnable.

    Hayward imo didn't really impressed me in the playoffs. He is not that efficient as a scorer.

    He was good in the playoffs.Hayward is more of 2nd or 3rd option on a title team.He disappears at times and can be taken out the game if you're physical against him, but he did his thing in the playoffs.

    I agree to extent, but do you think that's more of the way Snyder runs his offense/system tho?

    It seems like Gordon doesn't really have a true green light.

    Nah I think it's his make up cuz he was doin that under corbin too.You don't remember when delonte west stuck his finger in haywards ear and mushed him? and hayward just walked away? I woulda choked or swung on that ? if he tried that on me.

    Tyronn Lue Says Celtics Offense Harder Than Warriors to Defend for Cavaliers

    CP3 is heads and shoulders above any PG we got right now, but our offense ain't built for one guy to dominate the ball possession. If CP3 can deal with sharing the load, then ok. Lamarcus will benefit from having , but it could stunt Kawhi's growth. I wanna see what Murray can do. Him and Simmons need big minutes next season coming off the bench. Ain't even mad if Patty walks. He was ass when we needed him the most.

    CP3 is OD competitive so it's possible. If he doesn't stay with the Clippers SA would be the best place for him.

    They are in desperate need of a playmaker. I just don't see Kawhi ever being that great at it. He's ok but it's obvious that's not his game. Let him score and play D, get someone else to run the offense.

    Plus having CP3 Murray can develop a lot faster. With CP3 insight it'll give him a better feel for the game and in a few years give him the keys. Dude is going to be good.

    Pop don't want no PG that pounds that ball away for 15 seconds. CP3 is too ball dominant.

    There may be substance behind the rumors that Chris Paul would consider joining the Spurs, according to Zach Lowe of ESPN.com. As a guest on a podcast with ESPN’s Kevin Arnovitz, Lowe suggested there is “mutual interest” between the parties.

    :o:o

    I respect the hell out of Chris Paul and think he is the best point guard these last 10 or so years to play the game but I don't want any parts of him playing on the Spurs for how much he will be asking for.

    The team needs to keep getting young talent and try and sign somebody in 2018 when some of these veterans contracts come off the books.

    Shaq actually works well on NBA TV because him and Dennis Scott have good chemistry. Scott is his flunky that laughs at everything and encourages him.

    Chuck talks too much ? to him which helps sidetrack the show.

    Assuming he can pass a physical how would yall feel about taking a flyer on Bosh on a team friendly deal(very team friendly)?

    Wouldn't hurt

    Not sure what he can do at this point tho

    Id do it if he checked,out medically but I dont think he will.

    He'd be the perfect 4 though


    Blake Griffin - Dont want him

    After that we get into the tier of player like Taj Gibson, Patrick Patterson, Mirotic ect

    Why don't you want blake? and I actually think niko could thrive in the rockets system or spurs or warriors.He hasn't been utilized right on the bulls at all they made him a spot up shooter.He can do more than that

    Just being honest I've never been a big fan of his game but mainly he's injury prone, doesnt space
    the floor enough and I dont think hes going to age well.....obviously he would be a huge upgrade over what we have now but Id rather pass

    And again just keeping it 100, we dont need another mentally fragile superstar on our team

    Id be down with Niko though, I think he a fresh start would do him some real good

    Bellic?
