Heard this too, even if they get that done they still dont beat GS.  Does CP3 even fit well there?  Whatever, tired of the whole NBA model.  

They have a better chance if they add George along with CP3 but they have pretty much gutted their bench. And even if they had bench depth left I don't think they could beat GS or even SA with a healthy Kawhi. But hey they did lose all that much in long-term value and there's always a chance of injury or other misfortune hampering GS/SA.

If Harden hadn't done such a great job running the point for them last year I would say this is a genius move considering CP3's passing ability should mesh very well with D'Antoni's system (remember Nash and the Suns?) but idk how they are gonna do in the crunch time with both players on the court at once.

I would love for someone to go full defense and twin towers old school atp.  Just bomb the Golden State stuff and pound them inside.  Problem is only 5-7 teams even have a shot.  Sucks cause I remember when the NBA was great.

Houston looks like they are trying to go the LeBron in Miami route where three guys make all the money and the bench is compiled of jag's.

The issue is, they don't have LeBron.

Can't believe Houston gave up half their team for Paul.

Rare trade when it seems like both teams got worse.

Exactly. Houston definitely took a step back with this move.
