    don't go blowing up no houses or anything until the dust settles.
    i highly doubt that we will give up all the pieces that are going to NO for cp3 so that he can go to LA.
    remember that we were willing to risk having him without an extension?

    what if at the last minute Morey pulls out and says that they will deal directly with NO for Chris Paul leaving LA with blue b@lls?

    Exactly. This their Dwight and Paul deal. Make them give everything. We are not gonna get Dwight or Paul if we do this. Thats their plan. Not ours.

    I'm fine with whatever happens.

    The only thing I'm pissed about is the thought of DH12 in purple and gold and kobe winning more championships.

    Doesn't look like Jordan Hill will be in the Hornets trade, which makes me think Patrick Patterson will be.

    You should stop replying the moment he said Thabeet imposes paint presence whereas Gasol does not.

    Don't argue, in about 3 months time he'll be arguing against himself.

    This happened in almost every topic. I remember a year ago when Brooks was still around he was preaching about "the myth of a superstar" and that we don't need a superstar to win.

    This thread is already filled with the same crap. Repeated tweets. Updates are all we need, not the repetition of an opinion.

    Morris is not a SF, he's a swing forward with similar skills, just better than Patterson.

    They should be made to trade Bynum to get Paul if the league wants NO to get younger players.

    Dwight would love to be paired with an elite PG in Deron Williams.

    The Nets are confident a deal will get done, possibly before the season starts.

    They will be in New York as well, which is a larger market than LA.

    If we give up Patterson, Bynum better be headed to Houston.

    that's stupid. At least with Gasol you can trade him next year. For Paul you are left with NOTHING.

    Its obvious LA wont trade Bynum because hes the core player for the D-12 deal.

    The NBA might be punishing the Rockets for putting them in this awkward situation.

    The Scola, Martin, Drogic, and 1st/2nd round picks was a solid trade for Gasol. It seemed that most NBA people thought that New Orleans did quite well in the trade.

    Call them what you want. They will probably be interchangeable depending on the matchups.

    That Berger article has to be wrong. No way we give up both Martin AND Lee, or Scola AND Patterson. No way. If we give up Lee we have to be keeping Martin and if we give up Patterson then we have to be keeping Scola.

    Yeah on that note, was wondering how much stock Morey must have
    in Morris because of this deal. After all there has not been a summer
    league. I hope he can contribute that much, Rockets will need him to
    grow up fast.
