Chris Paul Thread!

Glad they didn't cave in.

Gordon and the Minnesota first is the definition of caving in. This is 100x better then the Laker deal.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

I kept telling yall Hornets and the league had the leverage because the Clippers wanted Chris Paul, not the other way around.

 

[elcheato]

You should be thanking Stern.. You get a top 5 pick and Eric Gordon instead of role players lmao.

 

[Rios15]

Clippers still gave a lot up to get CP3. Better hope he resigns. Good package the Hornets got.

 

[VC15]

This return for NO is much better than that trash the Lakers were offering.

 

[Giantmetfan07]

i thought they wanted Gordon & Bledsoe.

 

[The Young One]

I can't wait to see Mexi come in here and say the Lakers offered a better deal

 

[bosoxlover12]

I'd laugh if this got rejected lol

 

[Giantmetfan07]

the League executives were basically running New Orleans' side of the discussions. No way in hell League can reject it.

 

[bosoxlover12]

I still dont think this is a good deal.

The Clippers have zero SGs, 1 SF, and 4 small PGs (Mo Williams, Chauncey Billups, Eric Bledsoe)


idk if CP3 is better than Gordon, none of those 4 can play SG, and Gordon+Billups> Paul+"available SG"

I'm not going to sugar coat it, if it wasn't for him we would have got the other package (which I liked). But this deal is MUCH better.

But still, fuck Stern

 

[elcheato]

It'd be hilarious if the Clippers ended up trading away the #1 pick in the draft two straight years. I'm rooting for this.

They have to have another deal in the works imo.

 

[elcheato]

Could you imagine if the Clipps had just kept the course, and not made any moves?

Could be looking at potentially Kyrie/Gordon/Aminu/Blake/Anthony Davis or Drummond.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

"lol" moment.

They have Lakers fans calling the Clippers a small market team on PSD lmao

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Someone do me a Gordon jersey switch, please and thank you.

 

[Mexi]

is it too soon to call clips in the finals?

 

[elcheato]

Yes, because they literally have only two good starters, one being a superstar, the other being an all-star.

 

[elcheato]

Stern > Demps as a GM, it's pretty evident now.
