What If Chris Paul Was Actually Traded To The Lakers(Video) 

Post#1 » by Dmanning2 » Fri Mar 27, 2015 3:03 pm

Hey Laker fam...

Due to me having massive free time this week I've been watching 2009 2010 Laker glory days on youtube. I came across a interesting video I'd like to share. Crazy how one nonbasketball ****move completely shaped to NBA

Let me preface this by saying getting CP3 AND Howard would have been a massive coup for this organization. I was excited at the prospect while it was unfolding. And I think the Vetoed trade is the most WWE, bull, and embarrassing thing that's ever happened in the NBA, with a close second being "The Decision."

That said, I wasn't a CP3 fan before and I'm certainly not one now... As much as I'd like to be winning right now, I almost think we dodged a bullet.

IDK how far the Lakers go, but watching CP3 and Kobe play off one another would've been interesting. Paul's playmaking and Kobe's off-ball ability would've had defenses guessing for days.

Let's move on. Yes, we'd have at least 2 more Championships, we know all that.

Let's lose every game from here on out this season.

You just brought back some very painful memories.

"Hey Dad, we just traded for Chris Paul!"

A while later.

there still aren't any

over the years, the clips have been banging their heads against the brick walls of the true western conference juggernauts

those teams are getting better around them while they sit and paint roses

And being real....these guys window may be slowly closing. These dudes could end up with 0 titles.

Totally agree. I think they will end up with zero rings.

The Clips window is closing fairly fast. They won't win this year because they have no bench. And if DJ leaves, you can forget about them winning with this team.

And D12 will continue to have injuries. His body is slowly breaking down. And as he goes down, so will HOU. The Beard is a potent offensive weapon. But he can't carry a team by himself.

Lakers showed class by not suing or making a big stink about it... I would be glad if someone like Jeannie or Jim gloated a bit after the next championship... "Something I've been waiting for"
We do need to sign KLove away from the Cavs and throw a big wrench into their plans...I mean they sent their #1 pick away for him and he isn't even guaranteed to stay .... F*** Dan Gilbert! :nod:
