Who's going to be stuck playing Bron Ball? Harden or CP3? But all that aside, there's a high chance to have a pretty ugly conflict with D'Antoni/Harden that may split the locker room imo.

Personally think San Antonio would give him the best chance to beat the Warriors. Lebron/Manu/Kawhi/Alridge would be pretty formidable.

Downside is he's going to have to battle it out in the west.

what ugly conflict with Harden & Dantoni?

Can't beat em injured on the bench, no

Good to see you finally come to terms with the reality your team admitted when they recruited servant, though

I'm only using your reasoning against you - I don't believe that, at all, just seeing if you were going to be a man (instead of a hypocrite) for once in your miserable life, but obviously some things will never change.

:gucci: This is financially impossible due to the rockets being over the cap.

Rockets from what I'm to understand can create enough cap if they resign CP3 to less than a max deal, trade Ryan Anderson, trade Eric Gordon/PJ Tucker, let Ariza and Capela walk. (May be able to keep one depending on how cheap they willing to go. Capela has max offers coming in already in Phoenix. Ariza is a question mark) because the salary cap increases again next year. Oh, and LeBron has to take a pay cut of about 7-10 mil.

Which goes back to my point about them possibly being too depleted to compete with GS even if they could create enough space.

The hell it isn't

CP3 sees the writing on the wall: He's too old and injury prone to carry the team and Harden exposed himself as a bum and fake MVP, LeBron is the only person that can get them over the Warriors hump
#1 NBA Record
Literally blowing every team
4-1 round 1 & 4-1 round 2
and took GS to a G7 would've beat em if CP3 stayed healthy

But they need Lebron?.. Thats overload..

You're not trading Anderson unless you are unloading a couple of girst round draft picks and Lebron has stated he is not taking a pay cut.
