Yeah you're right; that Barea signing is going to take the TWolves out of the ter.
Conflicting reports on yahoo and ESPN whether Gordon is included. ESPN's bottom line says he is as of right now.
Cheap ass Sterling strikes again lol. He knows he would have to pay Gordon near max money next year so he rather lets him walk for peanuts. He doesn't give a about the success of the franchize...it's all strictly about the money for him. Offering Gordon+Minny pick+huge expiring+Bledsoe+Aminu to a team with absolutely no leverage is just re ed. If the Lakers or the Knicks had the pieces Clippers have they would end up with CP+Griffin+Dwight in no time...and the Clippers will end up with 2 year CP rental, Griffin and overpayed Jordan. When CP leaves after 2012/2013 expect Griffin to demand a trade...
Broussard is posting the same ...
Smart move, by Clippers they were giving up way too much. Paul will be PISSED!!!
Let stern keep screwing over GM's ... Poor Demps ...I would resign ...
So basically Stern is just ing the Hornets because the owners don't want to see star players traded.
That guy really needs to resign and quit disgracing the league.
He is in the deal according to live SportsCenter 2 mins ago via Broussard.
giving up eric gordon AND bledsoe might be overdoing things but to get chris paul back for the long haul would be worth it. if paul has not expressed interest in re signing with the clippers, then lol.
honestly, gordon, bledsoe, and aminu all have good potential but i doubt any of them have what it takes to be consistent all stars. they might just end up as solid players. i think this trade is fair for both teams. clippers HAVE TO keep jordan now though, which means overpaying him since he has a 4 year 40 million offer on the table.
this trade would be better for the hornets than the laker one. bledsoe, gordon, and aminu are all under 25 i believe and the hornets also get an above average center in kaman. they also get minny's unprotected first round pick.
He's not according to GM Demps via Yahoo
If he's in there's no reason to kill the deal.... Youth,picks,talent....
Not really. Paul is the best PG in the game, possible top 5 player. Gordon isn't even an All-Star caliber player yet. They should give up Gordon and Minny's 1st round pick.
Yes,Gordon and Minny 1st round...but Gordon,Aminu,Bledsoe,Kaman and 1st round.... he's not LeBron
Lol, CP3 is one of the best players in the league and he can't go anywhere because of Stern.
None of those guys you mentioned are All-Star players. Kaman needs to come because of his salary. I really don't care for Bledsoe. The deal should be Aminu, Gordon, Kaman, and the 1st round pick.
now that i think about it, giving up gordon and bledsoe makes somewhat sense. bledsoe has the potential to be a starting PG and gordon is just a 6'3 shooting guard with little point guard skills. the clippers will only need a veteran PG for the back up spot, not a developing young pg.
clippers should be gunning to keep aminu though, not gordon. gordon is a good scorer but CP3 will be running the show now. having two tiny guards running the backcourt won't be pretty.
Well,Kaman was all-star .Gordon when is healthy can score 20ppg.
CP3 wasn't so good last year and he could go in June.
Clippers were giving too much for 6 months
CP3 still had a great season last year. Look at the numbers. PER of 23.7, Win share of 14. He's willing to accept next year's option as well. They would have him for two seasons.
Kaman is gonna get traded as soon as he gets to NOLA. Gordon is a good scorer. Aminu is still a project.
Its not a steep price at all.
Rumors said the deal was killed again because NBA wants more so i guess Gordon wasn't in finally
There is no way they can get more for CP3 if Gordon was in
WojYahooNBA Adrian Wojnarowski
The Hornets-Clippers deal for Chris Paul has died, league source tells Y! Sports.WojYahooNBA Adrian Wojnarowski
Deal is dead, "for now, anyway," source tells Y!.Could still be restructured again, but Clippers resisting steep asking price for Paul.
okay, now Stern is being ridiculous. Especially if the hold up is Eric freaking Bledsoe.
Gordon/Aminu/Kaman/Minny pick is an absolute steal for CP3.
It will get done IMO. To good of a deal not to.
