Rudolph Summary on 740..

- You can't trade the most dominate center of this era and get better.
- Nets don't have anymore more leverage to get Dwight than we do to get Derron, there's NO reason to bow down to them.
- Change the mentality of this team, put billboards up, change the philosophy and show we EXPECT to win, show everyone this is Dwight city and during games chant MVP louder than the P.A Announcer.
- Let Dwight be more apart of the F.O, not let him make trades but let him feel involved.

Sounds dead on to me.

I completely agree with everything he said.....its as much up to the fans as it is ownership to get this done.

if we trade him, anyone but the nets as far as I'm concerned.

ESPN sources: Clippers and NBA-owned Hornets have agreed to Chris Paul deal in principle. Gordon, Kaman, Aminu and Minnesota pick to Hornets

Source directly involved in discussions says CP3 to Clippers is "getting very close." Will update as I can...

ESPNNews right now says CP3 to Clippers is "done deal." take it for what its worth.

[Def Swami]

Yep CP3 finally a Clipper

[BelgianMagic]

I don't think we're ever gonna get something close to that package for Dwight

[Def Swami]

Hornets did well in the trade. Very well.

[EasternMagic]

We're gonna get stuck with a Dwight/Bynum swap at the deadline.

Damn, this sucks, but I laughed

....it's both knees too... smh. Brook Lopez will probably end up having a better career than Bynum

Sad thing is, if we trade Dwight, we won't get as good of a deal.

Solid package for the Hornets.

[Coach_McGuirk]

Once that trade is done, we will see alot of other trades! finally!

[sonny_1313]

I think the Hornets actually came out ahead on this deal. They've got a bright future.

I wanted that for Dwight.

So the Hornets really do end up getting the pick AND Gordon?! Wow and we were close to getting Lopez and Wallace if the Magic do indeed trade Dwight it better be for a package like this and some.

[Def Swami]

Let's hope so

[BelgianMagic]

Again, not in a million years will we get something remotely close to that package .. SMH

Can we hire Stern as GM to trade Dwight??

[backasswards]

That's a GREAT deal for the Hornets and shows just how much the rumored deals for Dwight are garbage in comparison.

[woosah]

So they got Gordon and the pick like they wanted. That team is going to be exciting to watch. I guess that means Chris Paul agreed not to opt out. Wasn't that reported as a condition for Clips to trade for him?

I don't get this.... how do you guys figure this has anything to do with other trades? it just nixed an option WE had though :/
