HORNETS FOR CLIPPERS TO BE PROCESSED SHORTLY.

lmao

I don't believe a word Broussard says.. Sam Amick already reported Bledsoe is telling people he's going to New Orleans. I trust that more.

Clippers are refusing New Orleans-NBA steep asking price for Chris Paul, league sources tell Y! Sports. "Deal could be dying," source says.

 

[Pugz]

i hope the clips get to keep eg.

 

[DJT]

Me to, but doesn't look good.

 

[elcheato]

There's definitley a problem with the league if they reject this too. But the backlash won't be as big since it's not the Lakers.

but..

Source: CP3 to Clippers is "close," but not yet done.

Also, why won't the Clippers give up Bledsoe? They're getting Chris Paul...

 

[Pugz]

i can understand why the nba would want bledsoe to go to new orleans but i have no clue why the clippers wont give him up. and if they want eric gordon and that pick so bad id make the pick top 10 protected..

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Fuck David Stern.

How about the Clips include Bledsoe and we include Pondexter? Get it done.

 

[Pugz]

if the clippers deal eg, who is gonna start at the two? foye?

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Hearing the deal is dead.

Everyone say it with me, FUCK STERN.

Stern is like that guy in your fantasy league that wants to trade Marion Barber and Jackie Battle for Calvin Johnson and your first kid.

 

[Pugz]

:stern:

 

[elcheato]

No one has said it's dead, they're just saying it's in trouble, but still close.

 

[Pugz]

but to add something. the deal cant be dead if they just really had a deal early this morning. it just hit a snag.. and i read that the snag is STILL bledsoe. they dont want to give up eg, the unprotected first, and eb. lol

 

[jonathanlambert33]

No one has said it's dead, they're just saying it's in trouble, but still close.

Media outlets in NOLA are reporting the Clips backed out of the deal altogether.

Though I definitely wouldn't compare NOLA media outlets to Adam Schefter or anything.

 

[DJT]

I kinda like how the NBA is trying to squeeze out as much as they can out of teams...

 

[jonathanlambert33]

I don't.

 

[Pugz]

because youre a fan of ALL teams.

 

[DJT]

Not all, just most.

By isn't that what any GOOD owner should do? Try to get as much out of a deal as possible...just wait til the offer comes in just right.

 

[Pugz]

not if the offer already includes a player waiting for a break out all star type year, a $12Mill expiring, a prospect, and a first round pick likely to be top five. take that damn deal. nothing will beat it..
