  1. If I'm any team, I would offer him an Incentive based Contract.
    Offer: 2yrs / $20M
    If he hits certain benchmarks: 60+games played, Top 3 in Assist, 20+ PPG Avg, All-Star, Healthy in Playoffs, etc. Then I would give him an extra $10M.

  2. Sticking point is salary for CP3. Is he amenable to a $38M 2yr contract? Because the Lakers would love him on the cheap ($15M 2yr)

  3. CP3 makes the most sense in Boston only if he wants to ho there. He'll be the floor general they need, and the veteran who'll hold these guys accountable. The Lakers think they can get everyone

  4. if CP3 goes to Boston then the Tatum and Brown situation might be able to work itself out which is even greater in the long run when CP3 is gone. If he can show them how to lead with eachother and not against each other that can be scary.

  5. I wouldn’t want him. We don’t need CP3. It would’ve been nice to get back in 2012 13 whenever that was.

  6. Personally, I think he'd do well with the Heat playing 15-20 minutes per game and being in what Don Nelson used to call the "finishing lineup."

  7. JWill is 100% correct. There's no need to go old and injured with these older NBA players. Find some youth, length and shooting for the lakers if they really trying to win.

  8. Lakers HAD him over ten years ago till it got nixed. Him and Kobe would’ve been the best backcourt by FAR! Wouldn’t even be fair. Part of me believes Kobe never gets hurt with the Achilles if Paul is there handling the ball and taking some minutes and touches off of Kobe workload. Both fierce competitors, both hungry for a championship. Should’ve happened. But Paul wasted his entire prime in lob city and let’s see what he has to show for it…. Let me know if y’all find something

  9. We try’na win championships over here at the Lakers. Adding CP3 is taking a major step back from the progress we’ve made since our last run.

  10. This is kind of crazy. CP3 would be a great fit for EVERY team in the NBA. His value is much more than the stats at this point in his career. If the Lakers had him instead of DLO I would not be unhappy. DLO’s shooting was so bad at the end that he played himself out of his value. CP3 can still utilize his quick hands on the defensive side even on a bad shooting night. DLO just goes to the bench on a bad shooting night because he can’t defend as well.

  11. Why Boaton????Buck Foaton….CP3 has always made bogs better…I think hes a better fit with AD than boatons guyz… He would bring the best outta AD in the PnR and Mo Bamba….hed be a perfect dit on a good deal because it would allwow us to resign AR15, Rui, Vando and Dennis or we can swithc out Dennis for Seth Curry!!!! Rob is gonna make Magic happen this off-season I can feel ot in the Air!!!!

  12. CP3 should go to Boston, then if im Boston im flipping Smart, White and Williams and probably a 1st to Minnesota for Gobert and McDaniels.

  13. if draymond is a hall of famer then robert horry should be in the HOF too IMO! both of them played an important role + horry got more rings than draymond.

  14. If he only plays 50 games in the regular season and rests the last month of the regular season he'd be great

  15. No way CP3 goes LA especially coming off the bench. Rather see him in the East playing for Miami or Boston. If he stays in the West he should join the Spurs.

  16. I'm not totally against bringing CP3 over here to Boston…Just not entirely positive if that would be the best move for us
    I love the guy I really do, but he's a complete liability in the playoffs and it's a little naive to think he won't get injured again, especially because he'll be yet another year older

  17. I hate to say this. But cp3 injuries happen at the worst time. In the playoffs clippers/ Houston- Houston/ warriors and now suns/ nuggets. It’s nothing against him but I wouldn’t chance it.!! AD/lebron have a team if healthy can win a Nba championship. Reeves/Rui will be a big part of it.!! Hamm is a good underrated coach.

  18. Celtics would be a GREAT fit for CP3, both parties get what they desperately need to win a title.
