I am not a fan of the dude, but at this point I have to give him props... If I had to start a team with a PG it would be him. That step back shot last night was clutch... They've had a gew tight games lately and I have watched the end of them on NBA leaguepass, dude is clutch.

I hope he does not get that last piece that he needs because it could be trouble for the heats in the future.

Because that's all that matter when comparing players...

Not at all. Just cp3 is living off taking NO to the 2nd round 4 years ago, while D Rose has been killing it every year since. Did you see what happened when they went head to head earlier this year? Rose dragged him.

If I were starting a team from scratch and had my pick of the two I'd probably take Rose. Paul would be a sentimental favorite because I grew up watching him play, but Rose is just lethal. Interesting this morning that Skip Bayless said he'd take Kyrie Irving over Rose right now. But, you know, it's Skip so whatever.

I see you are from Chicago/midwest so you have to be a bit biased but you can't truly believe Rose is a more complete PG than Paul.

Paul is a better shooter, distributor, and plays better defense. Rose is electric and finisher around the rim. He is a great penetrator as well. But there is nothing wrong with saying CP3 is a more complete PG.

To be honest, I didn't see the game.

But I have seen enough of either of them to know that CP3 is more well rounded. That doesn't take anything away from Rose.

He's a fantastic player. Chris Paul is clearly a more complete point guard, rose a better scorer. Chris should have won the MVP a few years back when Kobe did.

Yeah he just happened to have his best year during Kobe's peak years.

After a game winning shot last night, Rose is the opposite of clutch tonight. He couldn't buy a basket down the stretch during this close game. Believe he didn't score a point in the 4th from the field and missed a FT late to cut it to 3. Had a bad shooting night as well but never considered him a good shooter.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By strato · Posted

      Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances.

      Dan had a great draft

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
