With Bledsoe staying, it's possible Clippers will just cut Billups. Miami, Orlando feeding frenzy would then ensue.

YES.


That's what I'm talking about. :starwars

I don't like the look of it; Heat would easily be more enticing for Billups.

YES.


Chauncey has said he has "no interest" in playing with the Magic. I'm sure he would MUCH rather play with the Heat....easily gets the starting job, along with playing with the big 3.


When did he say that?

The Clippers did not get Billups as a trade chip — players grabbed off amnesty cannot be traded until July 1 next year (when Billups would be a free agent anyway). They want him for the season.

Honestly, I was at my most optimistic at about 5:45PM the other day 15 minutes before Billups cleared waivers. Then he got swooped by the Clippers and I came back to reality.

Watch the Hornets sell before the new season starts next week because of this deal.

Billups will choose Miami, obviously.
