Correction: The proposed deal to the Lakers is Chris Paul for Pau Gasol and Lamar Odom, source says.
We're being trolled so hard.
Again, why the hell does any team want Pau?!?!
Why do teams insist on handing the Lakers stuff? I mean, seriously!?

How can he confuse Paul with Bynum? Also if the Hornets are truly doing that deal, that is pretty pathetic and we all now know the league is fixed.

Re: Official Speculation & Free Agency Thread (Part II)
If it's Pau and Odom, that's a dumb trade by NO. Sure, they get back good talent, but both Pau and Odom only have a few more years of really good ball left and that team is not going anywhere. Plus, they're not expiring. This will keep NO away from a get draft pick but not anywhere near contention. Not a smart way to do things.
EDIT: If it's Bynum instead of Paul, that's more understandable. Bynum is a punk and injury, but he's still really young and already one of the best big guys in the game.

Ok, let's change that CP3 billboard to "under no circumstance trade Dwight to LA"

Chris Paul to the Lakers is "done," league executive briefed on the deal tells @CBSSports.@WojYahooNBA says it's for Bynum and Odom.

This is disturbing if they don't let go of Bynum we're never going to hear the end of Dwight to LA, at least not until a contract is signed somewhere.

Source confirms updated @WojYahooNBA report that Hornets get Pau Gasol and Lamar Odom from the Lakers for Chris Paul.
Worst trade in NBA history.
