Paul has 2 years and a player option 3rd yr left which if stuck on our roster he probably declines. I'm not saying I'm for it but let's at least debate it accurately.

Yes, honesty would be helpful with this discussion.

Would you trade Johnson or Warren for Dennis Schroder?

I am not sure he is an upgrade over Tyler.

37 year old Chris Paul isn't turning down 44 million dollars for playing 18 minutes a night for 52 games.

Seriously. You can put that in ink, Carey.

Let's put a pin in that for now. He's a legendary competitor and if he's never made the finals by then he may opt out to spend his last couple years somewhere else. Weirder things have happened. Not saying you're wrong. I have no idea. I certainly wouldn't turn it down though. Lol!

He would probably just negotiate a buyout during the final season, and then sign with a contender.

Yep, after he has collected half that salary already in the final year, get paid another half of what's left, and end up with close to the full amount anyway, and picking the team he wants to play for.

Well, then let's go get him!!!1

Bucks are trading Snell to Detroit per Woj.

FiveThirtyEight rates the draft prospects:

https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/th ... rojections

They like Culver, White, and Clarke.

Also sending Detroit #30. Bucks save about 1.5 million in salary this year, but the. Leur expires and snell has another year

Looks like Paul haters can breathe easily if this turns out true.

Wolves win that one

They couldn’t find a way to throw John Wall in there?

LOL at the Rockets if they do that trade.

Luckily, those are all players I’ve heard associated with us and our pick.

Wiggins to HOU where the Rockets unload Paul has crossed my mind. It sounds crazy at first, but they need to do something about their chemistry if they want to remain contenders, and since GSW is down, they should do all they can to find Harden a second guy who can try to do something with the ball in his hands. Doesn't need to be an allstar, just a guy who can give them some one on one/midrange when all those threes are clanking late in a playoff game.

Granted, Wiggins at the (regular) max is still a very though pill to swallow considering he has one more year than Paul, but realistically what can you expect to get in a CP3 trade? No taker is going to send HOU real cap relief or a clear difference maker (if Morey achieved that in a trade he'd be instant candidate for GMOTY). The best they can hope is to break Paul's contract into several smaller bad deals, like SAC did when they traded Webber to PHI. Or they can take a chance on a talent and hope he clicks just enough.

HOU is in an interesting predicament for sure.

Call me crazy, but I think Wiggins can be a great D'Antoni player.

Not great enough to justify his contract, but I think he'd look much better than he has in Minnesota.

Horford just did Boston a huge favor. So is Kyrie.

I don’t know. I’d love to get Horford here to pair with Ayton.

I agree that would be a good pairing. But Horford is an aging role player. You could see it in the playoffs. He has maybe 2 years left of effective play. And he was making $30 million a year. That is outrageous. Signing him to a 4 year deal is essentially a guarantee of having huge amounts of dead money in years 3 & 4 of that deal.
