I'm trying to see how far I can push Rudolph. I just tweeted him: "Your bulldog mouth don't hide your puppy dog a**"

As much as the Warriors and Clips might be excited to be deep in CP3 talks, they cannot be ruled by hope. No extension in place, no deal.


We're the only team that would trade for him without him committing to an extension.

The Celtics would trade for him without an extension too. the problem is the Hornets don't think Rondo can suceed without stars.

Couldn't get much more out of him- just an educated guess and he said that he would put his chips on Golden State #staytuned

On the phone now with an NBA guy I would trust with my life and he tells me: Paul WILL NOT be on the roster at the end of this weekend.

Supposedly BOS, DAL, and HOU would also do that.

Dwight's a goner. If he aint talking ow and finishes off the season as a free agent then he isn;t coming back to the team that Otis built. Doesn't matter who coaches them for the next year or two so money wise doesn't make a whole lot of sense firing Stan.


But, but, but.......he let Jameer play in the Finals!!!

I can't believe they want to trade curry either. I didn't expect them to be a major player for paul either so we will see what happens. I honestly don't think hes going to golden state.

they must have some kind of deal in place for Monta, because i can't see a Paul/Monta backcourt working any differently to a Curry/Monta backcourt (namely because Monta needs the ball in his hands to create).

Stan was the HC in Miami? That's news to me.

Shaq called him the master of panic and so far Shaq is right. What do you like about Stan? ...and don't just say he's has wins here.

That Warriors offer is pretty awesome deal for the Hornets. The W's would be dumb to trade Paul for that because it's unlikely they keep him unless they can clear some serious cap room. But if the Warriors are willing to make that gamble, NO should do it even if Paul doesn't want it. Curry can seriously play and those are two very nice young prospects with Klay and Udoh. A young point, swing, and big man? That doesn't happen too often.

Kyler blehhhhh
Jason Richardson still talking, Golden State would do a sign & trade with Orlando... not sure if Monta Ellis would get swapped in deal.
