    Alright, Oden, Batum, JPEC, Miller, for Paul and Emeka

    I would do it

    What team won't make an offer for CP3? Hardly earth shattering that the Blazers will make an offer.

    I probably would also. But I'd like it much more if Nic were replaced by Rudy and/or Bayless.

    It confirms that "a source" said so. Maybe that source is one Jason Quick.

    @WojYahooNBA: Minnesota offering Jonny Flynn and two first-round picks (16 and 23) to Indiana for a package that includes the 10th pick.

    That is two trades so far that we have heard of where Memphis was trying to move OJ. Maybe the only way to get Gay to re sign is to move Mayo out?

    So Joel, Nic, and Miller are now worth more than OJ Mayo or the #3 and Harris?

    Really?

    For Paul? Nope, not happening. Batum needs to be in there.

    It depends if those two teams can obsorb Emeka or Posey.... i know NJ can but that would kill their cap space...

    Jonny Flynn + 23 = difference between 10 and 16? Who's headlining the "package" for IND? Hibbert? Rush and Psycho T? I could see Foster being very useful in MIN, but his contract's way too big.

    To deal for Paul, Portland would have to give up Roy and expiring contracts for Paul and one of their big contracts.

    And that would be the kind of change in the blazers that was talked about at the start of this thread.

    NOH does it so they'd have a Collison/Roy back court.

    From the link posted earlier:

    http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=aw-paulhornets062110

    It’s hard to imagine the Hornets agreeing to move their franchise star for much, if anything, short of an All-Star, a starter and a high draft pick.

    Who on the Blazers is an all-star?

    We aren't trading Brandon for a player of his caliber. The only reason to go after Paul would be to pair him with Roy.

    We can beat a Memphis offer and Nets only have Harris and number 3, and then it ends there if they don't want to give up Lopez. Beating the number 3 could be hard, but I imagine Oden/Batum/Rudy/picks/Miller/ whatever is is better then Harris/number 3 since the rest of what New Jersey has is not that awesome...

    I don't see why NOH would take on a bunch of dregs for their all-nba player, a guy who is on course to be in the HOF.

    When you have two excellent guys at the same position, you trade one because he'll get you MORE in return.

    Weird, earlier there wasa report Minnesota turned down Flynn for the #10.

    Edit, sorry, didn't say where he asid a package including 10. But if they turned down Flynn for 10, who does the differenec in that value plus 16 and 23 et them from Indy?

    Which is why I don't really think us landing CP3 is very feasible...unless NOH wants a downgrade of talent.

    You think Minny might offer them Al Jefferson for CP3?

    I mean, NOH should be looking to get a star player in their lineup as well as dumping a big contract.

    It is all about potential if they are truely looking to unload him (and salary relief). Oden has worlds potential, injury prone, but he has potential. Batum has potential. Those guys are on there rookie deals too. Pryzbilla is an expiring. Miller is still good and expiring. New Jersey is offering Harris who is good, but declined a little bit this year and also the number 3 pick, just as much potential as Oden. They probably won't get more in return if they are even willing to deal him.
