Could we get Mayo for TPE ?

Mayo is making around 5 million this year. We have a 6+ million TPE so yeah we should be able to get him for that. I'm sure it will cost a 1st rounder as well though.

we have to flip nelson for quality prospects and picks, are there requirements to number of contracts traded vs returning in new cba?

Have no idea if Mayo is even on Otis' scope? Would be nice to get him though for our TPE and a 1st rounder.

Yes he is and memphis is looking to shed salary to resign Gasol.

no way the lakers pull out of cp3 talk and send out odom for a pick unless they know howard is imminent.

no info what so ever, just common sense.

logical next step for lakers - use odom tpe for diaw+1st rd pick

then i'm guessing diaw for hedo, bynum for howard, 4 1st rd picks go to orlando.

otherwise this just doesn't make sense.
sixth man of the year, contending team, negotiating for cp3 - and now "dumped" for a pick ?
has to be howard.

If they do, that means the Lakers are willing to give up their entire front court for Howard, something I said they would have to do to get Howard from the very beginning. Lakers fans of course said that would never happen. Well it sure LOOKS like it is happening right now, LOL!

not really - gasol will still be a laker.

has to be the plan.
they're one of the best run organizations in the nba if not THE best.
must be this deal.

So then we should do that. Then send him with Nelson, Redick, Anderson, Turk and a future 1st rd pick to NOH for CP3 and Okafor.

Every night it seems like we're coming to a conclusion then something turns everything on its head and makes me think something will happen the next day. It's got to be over soon, preseason is 8 days away.

daldridgetnt David Aldridge
Clippers will be powwowing tomorrow to discuss next move. I can't believe they will maintain absolute non-Gordon stance if CP3 is in play.

Darth you can post it twelve times there is nothing to sink in. The league turned down far more than that so there is no way anderson , Orton and Bynum make them greenlight a trade. Everybody knows Bynum is injury prone thats why we don't want him

Go after Mayo with the TPE and a 1st rounder. Send Nelson, Redick, Anderson, Hedo, 1st rounder to the Hornets for Paul/Okafor. Sign Clark and Brown to the MLE. Flip Mayo and JRich for Ellis.

PG Paul, Duhon
SG Ellis, Von Wafer
SF Clark, QRich
PF Davis, Okafor
C Howard, Brown

i doubt they send out a decent center (on horrible contract) for washed up hedo when okafor has 2 years and hedo has 3

ADRajX · Post #352 » by **ADRajX** » Sun Dec 11, 2011 6:24 am

Marc Stein on SportsCenter right now... discussing why LA pulled out of the CP3 deal... saying they are going after Dwight... explaining it all

Okafor has 3 years as well. Hedo's isn't fully guaranteed his last year either so actually the Hornets get the better deal out of that swap.

They are still getting youth and pick(s). Mayo, Nelson, Redick and Anderson.

Work the Magic out Otis and Orlando Front Office.

I wish Dwight would say he would stay if we somehow got chris paul and then paul puts pressure on hornets to trade with magic... dreams...

Nolimit1211 · Post #357 » by **Nolimit1211** » Sun Dec 11, 2011 6:27 am

Ryno + Liggins For Capt.Jack... That's 2 guys from D12's list (Capt+Baby)..

Dwight
Baby
Capt.Jack
J.Rich
Jameer

That team is clearly more heart+hustle than last years team

ehmjay1 · Post #358 » by **ehmjay1** » Sun Dec 11, 2011 6:27 am

Wait so who's left in this CP3 sweepstakes?

The only team that really concerns me is Boston. Other than that, Otis do this and lets go get our Diva Back.

OrlandO · Post #359 » by **OrlandO** » Sun Dec 11, 2011 6:28 am

When did Howard supposedly make this list anyway?

thats fine, but they wont trade okafor... maybe ariza for salary matching. its still pretty far fetched, and i really hope dwight isn't texting cp3 "don't come here, I don't want to stay now that i've made it awkward"
