    Anyone questioning CP3’s smartness is stupid to me. He and Lebron James perhaps have the highest basketball IQ in NBA nowadays.

    I thought CP3 was done and had a terrible contract. I was wrong.
    But still I would have never traded him. JH truly overrated.

    Happy to CP3 get there before Harden, Westbrook, and whatever the hell we have on the court right now.

    Agree. The more I watch P-Bev from afar the less I like him.

    I'm happy with the results though.
    And not just for CP3.
    I got my #1 non-rocket related goal for the playoffs, Kawhi NOT to get another title.
    Next on the list, Giannis NOT to get one either!

    Let's hope Trae is healthy and Atlanta is able to get passed the Bucks.

    These playoffs have been damn fun despite all the injuries. The fact that we don't have the usuals playing in the finals is even more exciting for me.

    I wouldn’t have traded him for Rus if there was anyone else worthy available but I understood the gamble.

    I think CP3 is on that same sauce Lebron is on and why he hasn't taken the vaccine. Broccoli doesn't rejuvenate hamstrings like that. That my conspiracy theory anyway.

    Congrats CP. Did it the right way. Even if he doesn't get a ring. Unlike the mercenaries for hire that are the faces of the league. So refreshing to see. Wish it was in Houston though :(

    I was the biggest Harden fan, I don't think he did anything wrong except push CP3 out of Houston for no good reason. For that reason I am no longer a Harden supporter. I liked CP3, but if he wins a championship, Harden was the child and idiot. If your ego is that big and you have the entire org catering to you, you better be right about things and not a child. I hope Harden never sniffs a conference finals again.

    The great ones make their teammates better. I hated CP3 before he became a Rocket but you gotta give him credit for what he tried to do in OKC and again for what he is doing in PHX.

    If cheap ass Robert Server can hold a WCF title, surely Tilman will be able to raise one up as well, right?

    I wonder what Tilman thinks of the worst contract he's ever seen now. I wonder what size booty hardens buying his beard in now. P'sOS

    Not only that, but we honestly have no idea if this is just the beginning of run for this team. What if they make the WCF again 2-3 times in the next few years?

    The whole team outside Paul is pretty young. If they win it all, I don't see Paul being the guy who retires on top. He seems the guy who would want to come back and play a season as a champion to go Houston/Philly/Brooklyn to revel in those storylines as well as trying to repeat.

    Rockets will never be in this position under Tilman.

    People hating Tilman right now remember the Suns fans hated Sarver too. Sarver was a massive joke too. There is hope for us.

    They still do dislike Sarver. James Jones saved that franchise
