2024 NBA Season

[Maslate]

With all his previous antics, It is becoming apparent that most team would not want Chris to lead their roster. The guy is also past his prime already and keeps getting injured. It's not worth it to keep his expensive contract.

I get it with the expensive price. But to say he is not worth it?
Cmon! CP3 is one of the best pointguards out there. Let us face it. He just dont have that right team to win a championship.

If healthy he's one of the best on the court but base on the Rockets decision and the Thunder's plan to off load, he might not be worth the risk. We can have a different opinion on whether or not he had the right team, he had a good chance to lead the clippers and also the rockets.

Paul is good PG, if we will compare him to westbook, we must need to focus on their rule and thought westbrook has some good stats but you can see how Paul will impact in the floor especially in though times. The previous playoffs when they face the Warriors in the WCF, the rockets had a better chance of winning if Paul was available in game 7, and prior to that, he help his team a lot as he is very consistent than Harden.

Westbrook is just after the records.

This is been exploited by a lot of people and can be seen through the plays he is making. In fact there are a lot of YouTube videos you can watch explaining and showing this selfish plays by Westbrook. I think that is the reason why Durant and Westbrook don't like each other. And well, Harden is a ball--you know what kind of a player he is.

He was, that's because he has no teammate that is also after for a record, LOL.
Since they (harden and wesbrook) will be playing together, they should not be selfish, instead they have to share the ball in the court for the benefit of the entire team. They had been MVP already, they should go for championship this time and I think there's a high possibility.

I'm sorry but I'm not buying that argument. Him and Harden are healthy this season but still GSW beat the without Durant on the floor. And CP3 and Westbrook are not comparable, of course both of them can bring impact to the team they play, but that's about it as far as comparison it.

If you wanted to compare Westbrook, it will be on Harden, two good ball players so chooses to seek more statistics under their belt but totally choke on playoffs.

I don't think either one of them will or can adjust. They both play similar so I don't know how it will impact Houston now.

How interesting the previous match it will be more fun and entertainment if anyone is like me then share your thoughts because I am not a complete interested person in NBA but the previous match was very interesting for me.

You are late mate, you just go go back read and see the discussions of the previous finals. Anyone read the news that OKC is looking for Paul to be traded ASAP?

https://sports.yahoo.com/report-thunder-looking-to-trade-chris-paul-as-soon-as-they-can-175335760.html

The report says that the potential team should be Miami, oh well, too bad for this veteran point guard, I mean he can still play but it looks like OKC just wanted to get rid of Westbrook. And then will trade CP3 to build a new roster for next coming years and definitely the ageing play maker is not part of it.

I feel bad for Chris.

What's up with that? He's still doing great. I don't know what to say, all I know is that obviously, with that big contract, deals will be hard to lay out.

Building a team needs to have a huge cap so if that's how OKC will deal to CP3 then he don't have any other options for that he just need to go with the flow and play to whichever teams he will be landed, who knows, maybe he can manage to takeover and make a good hype to his career playing to a new team

He can still play but I don't think he is getting the same treatment as others veterans in the game. Slowly they are going to exit and might retire unless he really finds a good team that will suit him the best.

And with the last contract on his head, I don't know if they are willing to take the risk. Because we all know that teams are looking for fresh recruit as their foundation on building a new team and CP3 is too old for that.

I guess that's because Paul and Harden are not in good terms, the news just came late but I can notice that Paul has limited touches of the ball compared to the time they brought the series in 7 games.

That's what I think about Westbrook. The team management may have made a bad idea of bringing Westbrook to Houston though. Eventhough he is a good player in his position but Houston has James Harden who we know lead the team and I don't think Westbrook will follow the lead of Harden.

Westbrook has to follow if that's the team is design for, of course he can't replace harden as a main man in the team as the Rockets had the success with Harden, it's just that they are not a championship team and the Rockets management are hoping that they will become one by trading CP3 for Westbrook.

Westbrook and Harden played together since they were kids, they know how they play and they know their own styles as well, they are not worried about it so why should you be. Right now Westbrook knows that he is coming to hardens team and he won't be trying to be the alpha dog there for sure but even if he does their styles are super different from each other.

Harden is known for his unathletic smart skilled plays whereas Westbrook is known for his explosive physical style of play, one will do one thing and the other will do something else, since there is two people who are super talented on the team opposing teams will hard time doubling anyone, you could even focus on harden when Chris Paul was on the team but if you do that now than Westbrook will make you pay.

[jademaxsuy]

Now that there is a new team taking over the champ title then we can expect that there will be team moving from a certain activity or posts then for sure that there are many players now will be moved in accordance to the players likeand decision of transfer to other team.

Besides, movement of the good players in thr NBA will make a balance through other teams and then new players will be notice also as the new season for basketball assiciation will commence.

Here is the thing.
He is not being maximized anymore. The soars are coming from all of that.
He was used to being a player that runs like 30 minutes of his entire time in the floor. (Clippers Moment)
Now, he was brought to Houston. Harden is there which makes more minutes than him, he was just made as a back up.
A lot will soar when that happens. The physical body is not used to it.

Same thing will happen to Westbrook. No doubt about that if he will be made as a substitution of Harden.

[jakelyson]

Speaking of first pick, Zion is injured? It may not be that serious but I think that can be dangerous for the team in the future games.

If I am correct, his injury is just bruised knees. SO, there is nothing to worry about that. The challenge will be in the coaching staff of Pelicans how will they train zion to become fitter. In my opinion, he is overweight for the way he plays. He can easily bust those knees if he keeps on playing like that without proper weight management.

That's what I think about Westbrook. The team management may have made a bad idea of bringing Westbrook to Houston though. Eventhough he is a good player in his position but Houston has James Harden who we know lead the team and I don't think Westbrook will follow the lead of Harden.

Let us not over judge them for now. They know their circumstances right now and I hope they act to it accordingly. They are already aging and still chasing a championship ring. I hope they'll prioritize the game and championship over personal ego. Let's see when the season commence how these two will blend together.

Yes they might know each other since them teaming up in OKC but is that really enough to tell that their chemistry is way better compared to what they have with their previous line up? Because really chemistry is not something that cannot be developed all teams have that and San Antonio Spurs during the last few seasons showed that even if they have big roster changes they still developed their players to be good with one another. Westbrook and Harden on the other hand both of which are thirsty to carry the ball shows that one to give up their previous role for the other.

It may not be a good idea but if i am in the Rocket's front office i would do the same, give this a chance as nothing had worked before this. Paul is a very good point guard but they struggle to make the finals so with this tandem, maybe some miracle will work wonder for them.

I didn't know about that, I've been following the NBA for many seasons but never had time to get to know about them with their backgrounds. If this would finally be for the good of Rockets then there will a chemistry for the both of it which will result as a team. I don't want to assume base on that history but it's also possible that there's something that has changed for both of them. Two superstars, we'll wishing all the best for this tandem and for Rockets though.

Me as well, the first time I witnessed them playing was with the OKC when harden was still a rookie that time, but they have the big 3 already and they reach in the NBA finals that time but unfortunately dominated by Lebron's team.

I also think that playing this time is different since when they were still a kid they are not professional, now they are holding a record and they are chasing for a big mission which is to be in the NBA Finals and that is a major goal for every legit superstar.

But this is different though, this is not the backyard basketball arena. So you can't compare them as kids and as NBA superstars right? As NBA fans of course we can give our own analysis because we have witnessed how they grow as a player. But we can't discount that fact that he also played with Kevin Durant and we all know how it ended.

Well, Harden's doing the hogging so, the seconds of them trying to score, Harden is dribbling the ball taking it for himself. That is the reason why I Westbrook and Harden should team up, a hogger and a record-"breaker". That would be a good argument every game.

Ain't sure how this two Stars will have a good chemistry not unless they are now matured enough to adjust with the type of games that they have, Westbrook and Harden are both good for individual talents, we will witness what adjustment they both willing to take in order to gain more winning chances.

LOL. For sure! The Rockets appear to be wasting money on Westbrook. I guess they don't need a Westbrook in their team. Harden is more than enough man to lead. But here comes another leader.

We might be seeing the first ever jump ball between teammates. LOL!
