    If nothing else, I think this resurrected everyone's interest in the season. I know it did for me. Ha

    hes no defensive slouch. perimeter defense with kobe and cp3 makes them scary on both ends of the court.

    Why did Morey even involve us in that stuff? Maybe he does need his job put in question so he can perform like Rick Smith had to? Right now he is in second place to Rick Smith at GM.

    Don't understand why a lot here didn't want Gasol.

    Perhaps you mised it but one team already tried Pau as the lead dog and all that team got were a bunch of losses and lottery picks.

    Paul is the better value and player and it's not even close. Pau is a great complimentary or #2 piece while CP3 is a great lead dog and half a decade younger. You clearly don't know NBA.

    Chris Paul IS better than gasol.
    - he is younger and is worth a ton more on the marktet.
    - navarro is great but gasol is declining and is a giraffe

    The Hornets have started to inform teams that they're sending Chris Paul to the Lakers for Bynum and Odom, league sources tell Y! Sports.

    Paul for Bynum and Odom seems like a uneven deal aka steal for lakers I bet Cuban cries foul with NBA owning the team and basicly giving Paul away.
