and now the chris paul to clippers trade falls through. makes sense since the league was asking waaaaaaaaaaaaay too much in that trade. they wanted gordon, bledsoe, kaman, aminu, AND their minnesota first round draft pick? fuck that.
cp3 + david west - 46 wins last year
the so-called amazing clippers talent - 32 wins
as long as u have cp3 + griffin who the fuck cares who else is left
cp3+griffin+butler+jordan could get you 50 wins
aminu gives like 6ppg
kaman is legit but expendable
bledsoe just had his knee fixed
minny's draft pick = betting against adelman w/ rubio and derrick williams. i'm pretty sure it's NOT gonna be a top 5 pick. i'd def put money on that.
that trade would have been acceptable. but you can either get gordon or the minnesota first round draft pick. not both.
Stern gets more money when he sells the hornets if Paul is still on the roster. Jew be gettin his money.
no, stern wants to make a firm statement saying if paul wants out, he's going to either a. lose money by waiting it out one year or b. gut the team he's traded to
a lot of the cba negotiations revolved around small market teams losing their star players to bigger markets. stern is determined to make a star player pay whether it's by reducing his contract or gutting as much of his future team as he can.
lol kwame brown to warriors 1yr/$7MM
somewhere michael jordan is applauding this signing
