Whatever Roy chooses to do i wish him the best.
It's been posted already.
My Bulls are entering talks to acquire Dwight Howard. The Bulls have to go all in on this. If I'm them I'm calling the Magic and telling them they can have anybody but Rose.

Odom, to the team that swept the floor with you, for draft picks???
....and big Kob ain't happy about it.
Mike Brown is in for a LONG year if Kobe ain't happy w/ the Laker front office...esp. that dope, Jim Buss.

Pucker Up Butter Cup.
I hope that goes through, that would be huge

Silly move on the surface. But after the CP debacle it seemed like Odom was none too pleased and to get a trade exception for Odom's contract, it should open up some bargaining room. I mean, I would certainly hope that the Lakers didn't just trade the reigning 6th man of the year (to the defending champs, no less
) for a $9m trade exception that they aren't going to use this season. I would bet that if Laker fans stay patient that we'll see something of note here in the next 3-4 days.
Chris Paul looks to be headed to the LA Clippers, but it looks like Eric Bledsoe is the deciding piece.

Even without Bledsoe, I think the Hornets would get a very good deal (even better than what the Lakers offered).
I would also love to see the Chris and Griffin combo. That would be epic! :drool2:

Eric Gordon, Aminu, Bledsoe, and a lottery pick for two years of Chris Paul? Sounds like a dumb trade to me for the Clippers. That'd mortgage the future for a team that at best would be a 5 or 6 seed in the West. Name 5 SGs better than Eric Gordon. Just cuz no one's heard of him doesnt mean he's not a great player.

Clippers deal for CP3 is off.

IMO Stern is fucking with Chris they know he's leaving nxt year. but want him to play this season for the Hornets. and are asking for too much in return on purpose.

The NBA needs to get their story straight. They keep implying that they are blocking these trades because the Hornets aren't receiving enough in return, yet with the way things are going, all the Hornets are going to get is a pissed off CP who leaves at the end of the year anyway with nothing in return.
I'll admit that I am biased, as a Laker fan. But even the trade to the Clippers being done away with is ridiculous.
That was my exact first reaction. Gordon is the man, no doubt about it. But I think the (shot at the) move was more an effort to convince Griffin that the Clippers are serious about competing in the near future and were using that in an effort to make sure Griffin doesn't bolt for greener pastures once his rookie contract is up, which is at the end of this year, I believe.

I agree it is ridiculous.
The Clippers claimed Chauncy Billups off waivers. at least he didn't end up in Miami sorry rwill25.
Griffin/Paul would have been fantastic to watch. If Paul thought Chandler could throw down his lobs, he hasn't seen nothing yet. I'm relieved that didn't go through. If Paul becomes a free agent, he'd be smart to sign there in the offseason, as much as I'd hate to see it. The Clippers with Paul is a championship team immediately.
I really hope the Lakers have an ace up their sleeve. The team as it was could have contended with Blake/World Peace not worrying about the triangle and Blake starting at PG. They were good players in the wrong system. Brown is going to run a more traditional inside/out offense that would have been good for solid players like World Peace and Blake. Now we lose our jack of all trades and 6th man of the year. We're significantly worse with him gone $20 says Odom kills us when he comes to town.
Here's to a healthy Bynum and Kobe keeping his head straight. *crosses fingers*

Stern is like the Vince McMahon on sports GM's.

I dont get whats going on, what happens with that amnesty thing?
Teams can get rid of a players contract without it counting against their payroll. The player will still be paid the remainder of his contract, but it just allows his former team more cap flexibility.
The NBA is trying to get the Hornets an owner, and so far all the NBA is doing is making the team unsellable.
An unhappy point guard whos not coming back next season, their best post player David West has left, no supporting cast for Chris Paul...Who wouldnt want this team, esp when the future looks so bright with the crappy players they have apart from the point guard who is gone at the end of the season, i also doubt the NBA will want to sell the team to someone who intends to or at least considers moving the team, cause the way things are going that just might be most of the bidders.
