    Be physical with them and pound them in the paint. They get very whiny when pushed and Green starts going gansta'.

    So let's say hypothetically:
    • Cleveland trades Love for George to pair with Lebron/Kyrie
    • Boston signs Hayward and trades for Butler to add to Thomas/Horford
    • Spurs sign/trade for Chris Paul to run point with Kawhi/LMA
    Which of those "super teams" has the best chance to beat the Warriors?

    1. Cut a hole in the box.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    How are the Spurs acquiring Chris Paul without dumping Aldridge? All the analyses I've seen of how viable Paul-to-the-Spurs is revolves around the Spurs divesting themselves of Gasol's and Aldridge's contracts.

    If the Spurs could somehow add Paul without losing a major piece, they'd be easily the Warriors' biggest threat. In my opinion, the Spurs were the second-best team this year but had bad injury luck. Adding Paul, a two-way star still in his late-prime, to replace a steeply-declining Tony Parker would make them a monster.
