It'll be interesting to see the fallout from this.
It'd be one thing if the Lakers legitimately attempted to pull off another Kwame-Gasol type of trade, but this was far from that. This is straight up All-Star for All-Star with 6th man of the year thrown in. It's a fair trade and one that would have gone through if the Lakers weren't involved. Everyone here knows that.
Small market teams biting the hand that feeds them, can't wait to see how this plays out.
Another lockout on the horizon
it wont play out. paul is stuck in new orleans unless he is traded to the twolves or pacers. the owners will then swim in the money coming out of buss' pockets.
We shoulda known something was up when Buss took that sickation.
Why would the owners of the Hornets want to take on all that salary?
Small market teams played their hand too aggressively.
Buss has sat back and allowed them to voice their grievances during this recent CBA but enough is enough. You don't ever bite the hand that feeds you. about to get ugly.
Son if LA had never pulled off the most bull trade in history they wouldnt have even had the piece that would have driven this deal home.
According to whom?
Phil Jackson called it:
Former Lakers coach Phil Jackson foresaw this controversy back on Dec. 29, 2010, saying about the day Paul demands a trade: “Who’s going to pull the button on it? When Chris says he has to be traded, how’s that going to go? … Someone’s going to have to make a very nonjudgmental decision on that part that’s not going to irritate anyone else in the league.”
Kind of pathetic how people were crying foul when Lakers brought Gasol in, and now he's a piece of trash compared to CP3. What a joke.
Lakers gave away their 2nd and 3rd leading scorers. Give me a ing break. Small market owners who are hijacking this league are about to get a rude awakening.
According to whom?
The Lakers should drop a $1 billion lawsuit on the NBA and David Stern tomorrow morning. Paul should just say his hamstring hurts and sit out indefinitely at full pay.
Is Jerry gonna sick his army of 20something Vietnamese s that hes been banging the last 10 years on the rest of the league?
For what?According to which doctor?Paul should just say his hamstring hurts and sit out indefinitely at full pay.
Your posts aren't very good.
Laker fan scared that they might have to actually play team basketball.
You don't need a doctor to say your hamstring hurts. He can't be forced to play and he CAN collect all his money while he sits.
My posts are brilliant, if you don't know me you must not have been posting here very long. I am a legendary poster.

Sounds like you are just the predecessor for the current welcher.
And on a sidenote, everyone, here's something DazedAndConfused said about Javaris Crittenton at the time of the Gasol trade in an attempt to call it fair:
all the Lakers fans saying Crittenton was gonna be good
^Look at this goin' back in the stacks.
tee, hee.
Sorry dude. You couldn't have any idea, but folks who work for a living actually have to have a real medical reason to take four paid months off.
If anyone knows you, it's not for the reasons you think.My posts are brilliant, if you don't know me you must not have been posting here very long. I am a legendary poster.
I know, what a miserable hump!
It's called a contract, ya dumbass. And that's what team doctors are for..they decide if a player is medically cleared to play.
