We can mess up alot of people's plans. Lakeshow, CP3 and his cronies, NJ too. This is going to be fun to watch.


He would be the prodigal son of our franchise.

I would love for clippers to get cp3 and he signs there, we trade for elllis and dwight stays, and lakers/nets get nothing.

It works in trade checker.

New Orleans receives: JJ Reddick, Hedo Turkoglu, Kevin Martin, Jameer Nelson, Houston 1st round pick, future Orlando 1st round pick.

Orlando receives: Chris Paul, Courtney Lee

Houston receives: Emeka Okafor, Ryan Anderson

min pick + Kaman + Bledsoe for Paul.

i don't see any possible way we can land CP3 with:

Dwight
BBD/Anderson
Hedo/Harper/RWilliams/Q
JRich/JJ/Liggins/Hughes
Nelson/Duhon

they want youth and flexibility and nothing in our roster is young and flexible.

Does anyone feel we have LA by their throats, they just traded Lamar Odom for nothing, we need to demand more for Howard(if we are trading him)

The retardation of the NBA makes this 5th thread more of a Breaking Dawn pt2.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

Please tell me you guys aren't stupid enough to trade Dwight to the Lakers.

Lakers board assumes that you will send Dwight and Hedo to them for Bynum and a couple worthless late first round picks.

I made a note a while back tonight, that I was going to keep calling him a blowhard until he does something significantly good... aka the "prove me wrong, and shut me up" schtick :lol:

I just read that NO only has 6 players on the roster and the season starts in 2 weeks (not sure when first preseason game is) but they need players so why not send them alot of our players for cp3 ariza or okafor

Definitely. We will hear a NJ offer at least though. We need it to up the offer probably.
