Can we deal 4 Chris Paul? 

Post#1 » by RiversideClips » Fri Jul 23, 2010 3:07 pm

Is there any way the Clips could get involved w/ a 3 WAY trade?

Could we unload Baron, DeAndre, Aminu & Minny's 1st Round?
I know the the Hornets wouldn't want Baron back but does anyone?

I think Paul would fit in w/ Kaman,Griffin, Gordon, I still think we need to get a 3

Any thoughts on how the CLIPS could lure Paul?

I don't think there's really any hope to get him unless they traded Griffin, which pretty much defeats the purpose

We're also not a team on his wish list, I'm hearing that he really wants to go to the Knicks or Magic
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

I doubt it. We would have to get rid of Baron but realistically no one is going to take him. If we didn't get rid of Baron we are looking at giving up a lot of talent and having 2 PGs.

Without giving up blake i don't see how we could put up a package better than say NY or even Orlando. If we gave up blake, it would be kinda pointless.

Would you guys do something like this?

obviously not as a full trade, but as the base of one. You would likely have to throw in a few of your picks (less protection the better), and one or two of your younger players (smith, aminu ect)

Also, do you think if you did pull this trade off (which I think it is a win) you would be competitive enough for the next 2 seasons to convince Paul to stay in LA and fight Kobe for control of the city?
