    Aren't the Knicks still under the cap? If they are and NOH want to save money they will end up with Paul. They could offer DG and a large TPE and take back a bad contract that would save the Hornets a large sum of money.

    But then I'd have to move to NOLA to stalk him and I don't want to uproot my family like that!

    Seriously though, I think a prime big man is requisite to beat LA and Miami. Just my opinion. If you could get Howard or Lopez I would gladly trade GO for Paul. I also would trade Roy for Paul straight across. Would rather not trade Oden due to the big man factor and the fact that I feel his injuries are flukey.

    We could do that by trading LMA to NJN for Favors + TPE. We also can give them mighty savings in our own right. Wouldn't be as fast, but might be more over time or at least equal, plus we would give them value players as well instead of garbage (DG).

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I don't know...does Chris Paul enjoy cake? We must make him feel welcome if he's going to re-sign here.

    They got rid of just about all their cap room by signing Amare+Felton and S&T Lee to the Warriors. If they are still under the cap, it's not by much, maybe 3-4mil.

    So glad with all these trade ideas we don't really have anyone giving up Oden. Just hate it when people say we should trade him when we really haven't' gotten any worth out of him and will really get none if we trade him for the insanely small value he has now.

    How about a three way where we end up with Jameer Nelson and Orlando gets Paul ?

    If Paul does not want to come here.. at least get in the mix and get something out of it.

    POR - NOH - ORL Three way

    OUT Andre and Bayless
    IN Jameer Nelson and Brandon Bass and a $2.3 mil TE

    PG Nelson, Johnson, Mills
    SG Roy, Matthews, Fernandez, Williams
    SF Batum, Babbitt, Cunningham
    PF LMA, Bass, Pendergraph
    C Oden, Camby, Przybilla

    leaving Rudy and Joel for another trade before the season starts

    I think it means he's not exactly going to confirm or deny the rumors that LRMR (Lebron's marketing agency) is stirring up about him wanting out.

    Everyone hit him up tonight to see if the rumors were true and either way he cant say anything, so therefore he is stressed, but as you can see, he is too blessed to be stressed

    so he is telling people to fuck off

    It means that he is not worried.
