He is going to tank the **** out of him own team. Like how Carmelo did to his Nuggets. Don't piss off superstars Stern.
Could you guys imagine if Paul were coming to the Rockets and the owners and Stern veto'd it? This bbs would melt down.
For last season: Kyle Lowry: 34.2 min per game, 42.6 FG%, 37.6 3pt%, 76.5 FT%, 4.1 REB, 6.7 AST, 1.4 STL, 2.1 TO, 13.5 ppg Chris Paul: 36 min per game, 46.3 FG%, 38.8 3pt%, 87.8 FT%, 4.1 REB, 9.8 AST, 2.4 STL, 2.2 TO, 15.8 ppg
If the Knicks sign Chandler and the Lakers are stuck with their payroll, he'll have to walk to another team that may be inferior and he'll have to accept less money. It's just that simple.
We are not interested in Paul, obviously because he has made it clear where he wants to play. Otherwise, we would have cut the Lakers out of the loop in the first place. Like you said, Odom was not the hold up, Chris Paul was. Given that, why can't we still trade for him, and then flip him for someone we do want- Gasol? NO is forbidden from trading him to the Lakers, but the owners have no say in where we trade him.
Yeah, but Chris Paul is not who we really want. We want Howard and he won't come here unless Paul is here.
