'At [Chris] Paul’s age, with his injury history, every dollar the Sixers pay him would come with the risk that he isn’t even there when they need him,' ByDavidMurphy writes.
Is there a world in which Paul is suiting up at point guard for the Sixers in October? Sure, but it’s a world where the Sixers are the only team vying for his services. Or, it’s a world where Daryl Morey and Nick Nurse can see into the future and guarantee themselves that Paul will be healthy for the entirety of the postseason. Either way, it’s not the world the Sixers currently inhabit.The first part might be the only part that matters. Take money out of the equation for the time being.
In other words, it doesn’t really matter how much Paul would make for the Sixers unless the Sixers make the most sense for him. Right now, there’s nothing to suggest that’s the case, apart from the completely tangential connection to Morey, who traded for him in Houston and then a few years later traded him away.
