    What are you talking about? The article says nothing about Camby blocking anything, just that he was upset.

    What are you talking about??? it clearly states that KP called him to tell him he was traded he then was upset and now sources arnet sure he will get traded,

    hence blocking his own trade

    its a sad sad sad sad day when you get traded from the clippers and are upset about where you are going. i can only think of utah, okc and maybe memphis as other lowly destinations

    Attention whore, much?

    Where the fuck did you read that he is blocking a trade? Either way, he can't.

    it sounded like he was upset from hearing about it from KP first, rather than his own agent or GM.

    The article says nothing like that. It just says he had hoped not to be traded, not that his being upset has made anyone unsure of whether the trade will happen.

    yeah I dont get the blocking part. I can understand being upset. Being basically given away. And having to uproot. But its part of the business. If he wants his paycheck he will temporarily move.

    His wife is not happy in LA? That's weird. Oh well... not a lot of people like change. He'll figure it out when he arrives.

    All I've read is that it's awaiting owner approval. Nothing about it being in jeopardy of being nixed by Camby anger.

    It sounds more like Bucher jumped the gun in announcing it complete.

    I think it meant something like.... "his wife, who is currently in LA, is not happy about the trade."

    Ah ok. Thanks for clarifying. Seemed like a weird quote.

    Ya, it's ambiguous, but in the context of the rest of the article, I think that's what it meant.
