I can't imagine the Rockets gave up much, but its still a weird move for them. I just don't get the fit of Paul/Harden.

CP3 + Harden = Warriors kryptonite? Doubt it.

Best backcourt in the league, but I don't know how it will fit together.

I have to say that's a decent return for LAC knowing they could've easily lost Paul for nothing. Seems like a win-win here.
