Owners Pushing Hornets to Keep CP Indefinitely

[Lakers2009champs]

Scrolling on ESPN now.

Said they are against big market teams leveraging small market teams for stars .

[pass1st]

Houston and LAL were saving the Hornets from being completely irrelevant, tbh

[BRHornet45]

the son of a doesn't want to be here anymore! everyone saw how much he halfass played and cruised thru most of the season last year. what do the owners think he will do now? he may whip it out and beat off during the game just out of spite.

[Pelicans78]

Thanks owners. No we get to see CP3 leave for nothing. Awesome.

[Banzai]

LOL...league is ed up..so is STERN.

Real talk, son, CP3 will get traded away eventually. Hornets gonna get what they owed, no worries.

10,000 season tickets!

He'd need a to do that

[rayjayjohnson]

And, I love you BR, but do you remember slobbering all over his knob in the playoffs last year?

[Mugen]

tbh, this is what the flopping little gets for deferring to Jannero ing Pargo in a Game 7.

lol how the do you find an owner with the following condition. cp3 is gone but not until you finish paying us. sound good?

At worst, the new owner will get to make a trade of his biggest asset himself and not just be stuck with Martin and Scola.

you don't seem to get it...Paul didn't sign an extension...He may get less money but will walk for nothing and he's not going to a ty small market unless that pay him $200 mil per how's that for a bargaining chip

[lefty]

Sources say that the NBA has also rescinded the Louisiana purchase

You don't seem to get it....a new owner could still trade him.

Or not.

It would be his choice.

I would forfeit the whole seasons salary and sit out and force Stern to sell that ing team best way he can...sometimes you have to make the sacrifice...Paul just gonna have to do it..If he plays his cards right he could get the last laugh

That wouldn't make any difference except saving the league from paying his salary.

Great idea.

It's clear you have no money at all.

[skut_farkus]

nba.com has paul listed under Basketball reason where it normally reads coaches decision

Kool would become an instant Hornets fan.

[DazedAndConfused]

Anyone defending the league and Stern's actions is simply blinded by Laker hate at this point. There is a massive conflict of interest going on here with the league owning one of its own teams. What's worse is they actually HAVE approved trades in the past, which sets the precedent for legal action here.

And it's not like we're talking Kwame Brown for Pau Gasol. This is Pau Gasol and Lamar Odom for CP3, it's nowhere near an unfair deal or an uneven trade of talent.

[LakerLanny]

Paul should just say his hamstring is sore and get paid and not play a single game this season.

Show Stern, Cuban and Popovich a lesson for meddling.
