Fireworks have happened to say the least with it only being mid-July. Multiple moving blockbusters have escalated, early enough, most were around the NBA Draft. Franchise cornerstones that had been at home since they entered the NBA in near-decade or more figures’ Marcus Smart and Bradley Beal.
Easily the two most shocking transactions with Kristaps Porzingis going to Boston and Chris Paul heading to Washington, briefly. A close second? Paul getting swung to Golden State as they parted with Jordan Poole. Basketball fanatics truly can’t help but think of the Hall of Fame PG historically voicing, both with the Clippers and Rockets his main concern. The main task: taking down the Warriors.
Paul has even already showed cautiousness toward potentially playing with the second unit when he was introduced as there are now reports of his belief, he could play aside the splash brothers. Already goes to show how wild it is imagining him in blue and gold.
