You'd have to have a worse contract to throw back at the Rockets - Maybe Wiggins is as bad? I doubt it.

The thing with CP3 is that he is going to be paid 40+ million for 2 years after this upcoming one (I'm assuming he isn't going to decline $44 million when he is 37). It isn't necessarily the total amount he is owed but just how damn much he is going to make on a year to year basis.

So Wiggins + Dieng for Paul

Saves us ~5 million in 2019-20
Saves us ~4 million in 2020-21
Lose 11 Million in 2021-22
Save 33 Million of Wiggins in 2022-23

I know it's a dumb band-aid we'd regret, but I'd love to see CP3 running this show. He plays an old man game anyway like Andre Miller, it ages well.

Houston doesn't have the picks to unload CP3....he's that old and expensive, that you need at least a first rounder to move him. One could argue you trade Wiggins and Dieng for he and Capela.......CC is better than Dieng, but Wiggins, while being worse that CP3 currently, won't be making 40 million at the age of 37.

Is the trade official?

Maybe they're trying to find a 3rd team to take him if not?

Yeah he can't just be combined with other players in a trade
