Can't wait for C.J. to drop a 35-point game and be considered in that as well. Maybe Bazemore could drop 20 and we could have an entire lineup of MVP candidates.
A perfect example of "correlation doesn't equal causation". That might be the most common logical fallacy.
Actually Hood has veto powers I believe and isn't going to accept that trade. Plus holy luxury tax payment Batman.
What's sad is the top 5 threads in this forum other than forum games or "Around the NBA" are: - A thread saying Whiteside would be an MVP candidate if we were winning and suggesting trades that aren't even close to possible under the CBA - A thread calling out a 20-year old for not playing like a veteran yet - A thread equaling our leading dropping 26.3ppg and 7.5apg to the play of a "bum" - A thread saying we should go after Chris Paul.... - A tank thread. Sigh.
Hey, "actually..." guys--don't ruin a good story! And while you're probably right, and I obviously wasn't being serious, it's still not "impossible", which is all I said.
Bumping the Chris Paul thread was my fault because I was reading about OKC not being able to find a trade partner for him and it made me think of that thread.
I know your not being serious, but nobody should consider this even close to remotely possible. I wouldn't even say there's a 1 in a million chance it happens. Maybe 1 in a billion. It's impossible for Rodney Hood to say yes to being traded. This is where he wants to be. Trading him after he took a paycut and then got hurt would be such a horrible look for the franchise, that it'd be impossible that the organization would even ask him. And then the tax, and the fact that it's a 7 for 2 trade.
Yeah, a lot of people don't consider the roster spot restrictions since the trade machine doesn't factor it in.
Yup. And you know I don't consider tax and payment in these trades. The only time I do is when there's something like us ending up having to pay an additional $9M and then fill at least 5 roster spots.
