Should The Houston Rockets Trade For Chris Paul Instead Of Bringing Back James Harden?
Host Jackson Gatlin (@JTGatlin) discusses the news that the Phoenix Suns intend to trade or waive Chris Paul, how trading for CP3 might make more sense than pursuing James Harden in free agency, what acquiring Paul would look like, why the Suns are even considering this route, and how Daryl Morey and the Sixers might be able to throw a wrench into the idea.

Chris Paul got waived
It would make a lot more sense if he came to Houston and he’s a free agent now
it's the best option for the team come back of CP3
COMMENT: Would you want to see Chris Paul back in a Rockets jersey instead of James Harden?
Did Tillman burn the bridge with CP3? Yes, please bring CP3 back
Yeah I would trade tate, nix and two 2nd round picks next year for Cp3. Perfect vet og for this team. Tyty and kpj can learn from him and cp3 can sit out back 2 backs.
I wouldn’t mind CP3 coming to Houston but that’s probably not going to happen at this point CP3 wants to compete for a ring so I expect him to go to the Lakers
CP3 will pull a hamstring running through what his options would be if he's waived
He's too unrealbile health wise to be any good for the Rockets in any compactly
Kyle Lowry would be dope too
We need Cam Whitmore, and gotta call the front office and tell clueless Stone about a bunch of fake Rockets fans clamoring for Amen "25% on 3s" Thompson.
If we draft that joke, we will be the biggest laughing stock in the NBA when Cam Whitmore was still on aboard.
You draft the best talent. Cam is a better overall player than Amen whom played with a bunch of highschoolers in that Elite league…and is 20 years old. Even Hollinger suggested the Rockets to go with Cam Whitmore. The Ringer also put Cam Whitmore as the Rockets' pick; being the best talent available after Wemby/Miller/Scoot.
I wouldn’t pay CP3 more than $35 million a year! And only a 2 year guaranteed deal
Sign CP3. We should have NEVER traded him to OKC & given up our next two 1sts. Fits our timeline much better.
I don’t get giving anything up for CP3 Harden wanted him gone and is the reason we swapped them picks for Russ. We need to go in a different direction if we can’t out right sign him.
We need some better content. Everyone knows CP3 is being waived and he wants a ring. Why in the world would he come here just to mention some kids. Find out whats going on with Amen, Scoot, or Cam, or a trade, we dont care about this CP3 crap. We need some draft insight, i need to join locked on to get everyone the scoop.
Great video.. what’s obvious is.. the rockets cannot go into next season without a legitimate floor general. That is, if they want to make the step they say they want to. Chris Paul. Fred Vanfleet as a backup plan. No James harden. You’ll get your 10-day my guy..eventually.
Trade definitely not free agent maybe if they cant find a better free agent
I don’t see how this makes any sense for Chris Paul to come to an unproven team instead of signing with a contender if released.
Tillman burned that bridge Saying CP3 had the worst contract in the league!! Plus as much as CP3 than been hurt he need to go on retire and be a coach
Chris Paul would play 25 mims/game and provide on court coaching. Chris makes everyone better
