WOW

deal is dead. a group of owners cried foul, mainly because it was the star studded Lakers. Now if that is the case, who then can trade for Paul. Will everyone cry about another owner trading for him.

not to defend the lakers but that is bull. the deal isn't that bad if NO's goal is to remain relevant. a starting lineup of kevin martin, louis scola, okafor, lamar odom isn't horrible. probably good enough to challenge for a playoff spot. they were the 8 seed last year.

Thank you Stern

My opinion on all this "stars to the big markets" bullshit?



Whatever, I don't even care anymore.

Glad the deal was stopped. Did not want CP3 with Kobe.

Deal is apparently dead in the water because the league "keep asking for more and more"

[Absinthe]

Seriously? Fuck the NBA. I question why the NBA even has small market teams. The Bobcats won't ever be able to keep one super star, let alone acquire three.

Also, Houston's front office is composed of morons. They just gave up tons of young talent for a candy fiend and a PF that is among the softest players in the league.

I'm not so much pissed off as I am completely disheartened. I don't think any team not named the Lakers or Celtics will ever truly be legitemit.
