It's probably 1/4 full. Cards are under 10%

Tanking added to Booker's absences, not so with Paul. And Paul's been missing games for more than just a few years.
my apologies, I didn’t know you were the Suns team doc. I take back everything I said about Book’s health

Suns are my Kryptonite!
So far the rumors are Chris Paul, Bertrans, and Jerami Grant. Jerami Grant is probably going to be highly pursued. Bertrans I can't see really helping us. The rumor has been floated before we were going to trade Rubio to get better peices, and Paul actually upgrades the PG position even at 35.

It's not really much money out of Sarver's pocket this season.
Only about $6 million more if they trade Oubre and Rubio. Of course the 2021-22 season would be different but they were going to pay Rubio $17,800,000 anyway.

I would gladly take Kuzma. He plays circles around any power forward we have.

I would only do it if it was Oubre, Rubio, Ty Jerome and we get a 1st pick back from OKC.
I know that isn't realistic, but I hate Chris Paul at this age with this contract.
He is speaking as someone who understands WAR/Win shares Hopkins WAR is just under 2. WRs can't impact the game like a starting PG. Paul's win shares are 8-9
I want an all star.
NO NOT THAT ONE. He missed TWO GAMES LAST YEAR. HE IS BREAKING DOWN!!!

He had HAMSTRING ISSUES.
IN 2017.
ENOUGH OF THIS NONSENSE.

Last I checked, defense and rebounding in the frontcourt were still needed to win in the NBA, even today's NBA.

It's especially concerning given that in addition to his absences, he's played a lot of games at less than 100%. And he's nowhere near the same player when he's less than fully healthy. But he's young and he's ours and we're not likely to match him should we lose him for some reason so we have to cross our fingers.
You’re spending the same money on Paul as on Rubio/Oubre. He’s better. Do you like Rubio/Oubre at 32mill?

He sat out at the end of the season a few years ago when we tanked, I don't have to be a team doctor to know that. I wasn't excusing away all his absences, just said that tanking added to them.
defense and rebounding everywhere on the floor matter
some of Chris Paul’s strengths might surprise you...
2006 64
2009 45
2013 62
2016 61
2017 58
2018 58
keep ignoring it, but it ain’t going anywhere.

No - Paul is making 41 Million
That is 9 million of our 18 million of cap space.
Do I think Rubio / Oubre combined are worth 32 million - yeah just about. They are 2/5 ths of a starting lineup as opposed to 1/5.
When he was in his prime, he was the best all-around PG in the league. He is no longer in his prime. Not by a long shot. When he inevitably loses a step in the very near future, his strengths will be gone.
there is a reason he’s available at this price
you don’t get flawless impervious 22 year old all stars for Rubio and Oubre
still waiting for your 2019 report tho
Floor spacing without rebounding makes a team...last year's Houston Rockets, only without Harden or Westbrook.
