Maybe but I dont see him helping out either

David Stern sounds unconcerned about the apparent trend of superstars leaving small- or mid-market cities for the bright lights of larger markets.

Asked how he wants to see Dwight Howard's situation play out and whether he's concerned that Chris Paul sought to leave New Orleans and Howard wants to leave Orlando, Stern said he honors players' right to play where they want.

"That's the beauty of the soap opera of basketball," Stern said before the Orlando Magic faced the Oklahoma City Thunder at Chesapeake Energy Arena on Christmas night. "As in life, it'll play out the way it plays out, and we'll all be observers of it."

What? When did we ever have the chance to do this?

Right, but I don't see how giving the Hornets what they want to get rid of a guy they don't want is seen as going out of his way to help us. Of course it would, but it doesn't have to be seen as a friendly deal if we include good enough pieces.

David Stern is full of crap... he was going to hook the Lakers up with CP3 (LAL/Hou/NOH deal) and help them clear enough cap so they could sign Dwight in the Summer. Thank God for the owners protesting that joke trade. F that man, for real.
