CP3 and Howard want to play together


PantherAZ

Recommended Posts

DeAndre Jordan, Jamal Crawford and Eric Bledsoe for Dwight Howard (in a sign and trade)

 

why Clippers do it:

CP3 has not gotten along with Jordan very well. Wants to play with Howard.

 

why Lakers do it:

if they don't do a sign and trade- they will most certainly lose Howard for nothing to ATL or someone else.

Kobe always loved playing with Caron and was mad when LA traded him to Washington a few years ago.

 

 

Clippers:

PG - Chris Paul

SG - Jordan Crawford

SF - Matt Barnes

PF - Blake Griffin

C  - Dwight Howard

 

Lakers:

PG - Eric Bledsoe

SG - Kobe Bryant

SF - Caron Butler

PF - Pau Gasol

C  - DeAndre Jordon

Yeah I see both teaming up on an LA team, or another big market team.

 

BUT..if Chris Paul wanted to come back home, this would be the opportunity to do so.  Anywhere he and Howard went together would be an instant legit contender, and maybe Paul could convince Howard to come..IDK.  I dont know how NBA players feel about Charlotte.  Would just seem to me that with the name change back to the Hornets and Paul growing up in NC, that he would be a frigging legend if he came here and won a title..Same with Howard. 

 

We'll see what happens but Im already getting excited that they are talking about playing together.  If they TRULY do want to play together, I think we have a shot at it.

Can't see why either want to play with each other though...

 

Dwight couldn't play with Kobe...CP3 is just as big of a competitor/dick as Kobe.  CP3 feuded with Jordan and Blake all year because they weren't serious enough.  Dwight is going to finally be serious?  Chemistry problems waiting to happen more than likely if they pair up.

I really think that only the Lakers, Clippers, Hawks, and the Bobcats have a shot of landing both of these guys.

Lakers would have to amnesty Kobe in order to make room for CP3 (not gonna happen)

 

Clippers would need a sign and trade with Lakers in order to make room for Howard trading Bledsoe & Griffin or Jordan for Howard (this is feasible, but I don't see the Lakers trading Howard to their in-town rivals)

 

Hawks could make room, but would literally be cutting everyone on their roster and would have no chance to compete next year

 

Bobcats would have to trade expiring contract Ben Gordon, and Amnesty Tyrus Thomas.

 

I think the Bobcats are in the best financial position in the league to make it happen... odds are it won't though.

    • I am not sure it should be a ‘sell out to go to the SB’ season. And hope they don’t.  At the same time I was thinking you absolutely must find out if you want to pay for Bryce or not. That means putting it on him. No protecting and trying to hide weaknesses with the run game and a super conservative calls.  So I wish they would do it and find out, win or lose, 2026. No more developing. Time to do it. Let’s see once and for all. 
    • My biggest fear with Bryce Young is that he will always do just enough to stick around. He shows flashes and then drops a turd so the hopium is always there. Like his career highlight reel if you cut it up to some hype music and did a YouTube video would actually be quite good. His great plays really, really look good. But after that video you look at his yearly averages for completion percentage, yardage, touchdowns, and virtually every other metric and it is meh as fug. Like you know Bryce is gonna be 13/23 for 157 yards a touchdown and probably a pick.  I will 100% give him his flowers for his athleticism and ability to scramble outside the pocket. I haven’t seen the mythical “super processing ability” he was touted for per se, but he has shown flashes of absolutely elite awareness when it comes to scrambling. The little basketball move he does to shake defensive linemen has almost become a signature move. It’s hard to explain but you know it when you see it he stops on a dime and pivots like he is gonna hit a step back jumper and it has gotten him out of a lot of trouble.  I sincerely, truly, as a vocal Bryce HATER, hope that since we are obviously running with him next year the coaching staff actually tailors plays around his strengths. He needs to be in a pure spread IMO. His size is much less of a hindrance when he can play QB in open space. I feel like most of his highlight reel is from scrambles and play action/bootlegs.
