    Is it true Windy stalked a young LeBron all over Akron? Isn’t that almost predatorial?

    I think cp3 is not in the game for the money so I think he would but it would be to a solidified title contender n that’s lakers clippers Sixers bucks anywhere else it’s not worth it

    $44 mil is better than a chance to win a title.

    I wouldn’t pay $44 million dollars for a chance to get beat by Lebron, Kawhi or Luka in the playoffs.

    Yo. Chris Paul becoming one of my favorite players just off what I’m seeing this season everyone talking about LeBron (Don’t get me wrong I love Bron to death) but cp3 balling at a older age as well

    In regular people words would you turn down a CEO job at work to help your friend get a job with you.

    Imagine if Chris Paul leads the team last the first round that would be nuts especially because after KD left westbrook couldn’t get them past the 1st round
