Not sure why they love Paul so much. They can get similar basketball genius and obsessive preparation and professionalism from Rajon Rondo at a tiny fraction of the cost. Plus Rondo has ice water in his veins, rarely if ever chokes in huge moments, is already practically a player-coach and has actually, you know, won stuff, unlike Paul. Giving up any draft picks is just foolhardy. Rondo would just kill it in NY. Draft Vassell, Bane, and Reed or Dotson, hire an amazing shooting coach, let Rondo teach us how to be tough-minded and let’s see what we have before giving up draft picks!
I'm glad they want Paul but my biggest hope for the new regime is that they are willing to lose him if the price is too high and that they don't bid against themselves.
There is no way OKC has an offer even close to that for CP3 and keeping him isn't an option unless an even worse asset is the only choice.
