    Not doubting you, but would you be able to produce a link? That's a strange turn of events.

    If they signed Carl Landry, they would have been set to win the next 3.

    Paul
    Kobe
    Artest
    Landry
    Bynum

    With Okafor, Barnes, Fisher, Blake, and a handful of draft picks who could have panned out to be decent role players.

    Well Woj said Stern stopped the deal because he didn't like Paul dictating where he wanted to go.

    Yet Paul said he wanted to go to NY.

    That team would not beat OKC in a 7 game series.

    As a FA? If he's willing to take less money he can go wherever he wants to.

    Point is Chris Paul did not dictate his way to LA.

    In this article:

    http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=aw-wojnarowski_chris_paul_lakers_hornets_nba_120811

    It says:

    Some owners pushed Stern to nullify the trade and that the Hornets be made to keep Paul on the roster for the foreseeable future, sources said.A chorus of owners were irate with the belief that the five-month lockout had happened largely to stop big-market teams from leveraging small-market teams for star players pending free agency.
