On one hand, with cp3 LAC is built somewhat similar to OKC with the 2 stars (one a top pg, another a top forward) and a bunch of solid role players around that core.

on the other hand, cp3/blake as a tandem just can't generate the type of offense that westbrook/durant can, blake just aint there yet and i'm not sure he's gonna turn into that type of player that can give you an easy 30 whenever you need it. you see the potential every once in a while but his freethrow and overall shooting will have to improve tremendously and he'll have to become much smoother and cerebral with what he does in the post.

if that doesn't happen in the next couple years... well, you're not gonna get a much more talented type of "supporting cast" than what they had this season and chances are you're not gonna somehow someway package half your roster to trade for a 3rd star to be the alpha male scorer (assuming there was even one out there for the taking) .. and that would just demote blake to being a high flying mascot.

Perhaps a different coach can right all the wrongs but i feel that if paul does return, lac is still in a stagnant position until something dramatic happens with blake/deandre. With that being said, i'm not sure whether there's a better situation for cp3 if he's lookin for immediate results, or just with all things considered.

The H
CP3 and Harden wouldn't work. It would be like Joe Johnson and DWill. Both need the ball in their hands to be effective. It could work if one of them would be willing to be the 6th man.

CP3 wants to win a ring and really no team in my mind gives him a shot any better than the Clips do. Dallas has an aging Dirk. ATL would just be another team with a good core but not championship caliber. Houston I already mentioned. Utah...lol

He might as well stay with the Clips and try to develop more chemistry with a team as deep as they are, instead of going to a new team and starting that whole process again. Just change the coach if anything.

I'm not sure how movable Lin is tho

He had an underwhelming season, bytched out of the playoffs, and his contract is ridiculous

Season after next he's making 15 million

Lin makes 8.37million next year & the year after. Only would have been 15 if the Knicks had matched.


He won't leave the Clippers. More money & better team than anywhere else he could go without a trade.

Melo & Paul have been plotting their way to NYC for years.

Knicks will find a way.
