Never said it was a fact...I stated it wouldn't surprise me. It is all speculation on my part. What difference does it make to the players in the proposed trade when the trade is announced.
Paul spoke in-depth about life on and off the court with the Clippers, saying goodbye to L.A. and hello to a town he doesn’t know well in Houston, his love for his supportive wife, Jada, his hopes of playing with his buddy Carmelo Anthony in Houston, and more. The undefeated article!
Posted this in another thread. Maybe we're waiting to announce it near the CP3 press conference friday. That way we can have Paul and Melo together..
Thank you. Haha, the same people attacking me for thinking the trade isn't happening because of the Ryan Anderson contract are arguing that there is a hidden agenda for the timing of the announcement.
as a fellow UTSA alum, that's the only thing i like about her, she's looking a little sexier these days
Carmelo Anthony? Is a trade happening? Is it imminent? What's the latest? WojBomb? "Man, sit back and wait." That's a great line from Chris. ;-)
Not sure I buy that at all. If this was the case (where teams had the ability to announce on their own terms) Woj wouldn't have the career he has. Agents have to be called. Teams are made aware of movement and subsequent players involved have agents with loud mouths (think of the agents of some of the non-guaranteed guys). I just can't see keeping the cat in the bag for this long without Woj reporting it being close to done.
yup - Chris Paul knows Melo will join the Rockets (If chris Paul wasn't here i would had already given up and pretty much know this trade wouldnt happen (But Chris Paul is here and recruiting
I just opened the boards for the first time today. Do not assume I f5 for melodrama. Time difference is just a b****...
you guys think the hold up is jared uthoff? His deal can't be aggregated for two months right? Maybe that's the lone hold up. Why else is Harden acting like this is a done deal, and cp3 is telling Spears, man, just sit back and wait?
they still would. But no way you hold up sending paperwork to the league, and allow someone to change their minds. Are we joking here? I can't tell if you're serious, and trying to find a reason for the deal is done, but we are just waiting around for the right time to announce it, while allowing participants to change their minds.
He can be traded, just not aggregated in salary matching. If a team wants him, it's easy to get him without aggregating his salary. Morey would just coach the other team on how to do a big deal as technically a bunch of smaller ones. But if the other team really needs his salary to be removed from their cap (by cutting him as aggregate in a larger "TPE"), then it would be really frustrating for this whole thing to hinge on an extra $2m of cap cutting.
