You understand that New Orleans gets gang raped in this deal right?

They give up Paul, West and Okafor. Three of the four best players in this deal are being shipped out and all they get is an old over priced Vince Carter and some crappy picks.

Carter,Redick and late 1st gets you Chris Paul and Posey ???? DREAM ON.

In answer to your original Q - Yes we do that.

Nawlins not so much

[fallacy]

OKC would do it. NOR would have a mass suicide if that happened. Overall, really bad trade idea with too many people. Chris paul and david west are better than anyone that they are receiving.

I guess if nothing else, I'm impressed that you were able to get the salaries to work out with that many teams and that many players to work out

I agree with everyone else though...
