    The Orlando owner employed his son-in-law to be president of the team? No wonder they keep losing their franchise players.

    Just like the Rockets would never land Tracy McGrady, or Scottie Pippen or Charles Barkley. Or Lebron and the super friendswould never happen. Not saying it's likely to happen but unless your Chris Paul how the hell do you know?:rolleyes:

    Paul has indicated Clippers and Warriors could raise chances of keeping him long-term if they sign center Tyson Chandler too, sources say.

    I wonder if we can pick up something good as a part of the CP move even if we don't get CP.

    Will the Hornets be willing to move Okafor?

    If there's a deal with the Celtics and the Hornets don't want Rondo back, can we get Rondo and pair him with Lowry?

    Imagine having the CP/Kevin Martin back court. Paradise for flopper enthusiasts.

    Okafor's contract sucks.

    Man, Morey always trying to be the 3rd wheel.

    I kind of feel sorry for him.

    I like Okafor, but his stats are definitely inflated a bit by playing with CP3.

    I'd rather get Jefferson.

    1 CP3 would improve this team depending how much we lose for him.

    2 CP3 is an all star

    3 CP3 is not worth it as a rental

    4 CP3 signing would obviously be for marketing/business reasons and may not be for team improvement(depending on what is lost to get him)

    5 CP3 is not a slight improvement over Lowry talent wise.

    6 We do not have a CP3 on our team.

    7 For what I guess will be the asking price, I do not think CP3 is worth it.

    8 If we do end up get CP3 I would not be disappointed

    9 There is some big time delusional homers in Clutch Fans.

    10 Kyle Lowry is not on the same level as CP3.. I repeat

    I don't like this. $ for $ I think Lowry is a better deal.
