CP3 to clips.

He is a clipper.Thoughs?

[nuckles2k2]

Hornets got a pretty nice deal. Gordon, Kaman, Aminu, and an unprotected T'Wolves 2012 pick (and we all know how high that pick's gonna be.)

Gordon + 2012 selection isn't that bad, barring bad drafting by Demps & co.

[smokes]

Does he have to opt in for the deal to be made? Can't find the details of the trade.

Thats a crooked and ****ed up way to end Kobe's chance at getting another title

This deal is twice as good as anything the Lakers could offer.

[Wargames]

F*ck ahh well moving on...

Really though im hoping our bench steps up during the back to backs. Also TD needs to play like his job is on the line because if the knicks loose to bad PG play he will be gone next year.......

If he plays well the knicks can make an offer to a player to be the Knicks Sixth man since all our scorers are in the starting Unit. Shumpert is looking like a SG with some handle but hopefully he.can develop into a swingman type player as well.w

The Hornets fans and many reporters had no problem with Odom, Kevin Martin, Luis Scola, Dragic, and a 1st round pick

But this is a lot better.

F*ck what? We had no chance whatsoever of getting CP3 this year. The tiny chance we have of getting him next year just got a lot better with him going to the Clippers. Out of all the teams he could have gone to the Clips are the least likely he'd want to stay with.

Can't find any mention of him being made to opt-in to his player option for this deal which means he should still be a FA next summer

He is going to pick up his player option, so he'll be there at
least 2yrs.

Where are you getting this info? Links....

[Weissenberg]

He even isn't a Clipper yet, wait until this trade is approved.

ESPN news, it's part of the deal that he picks up his Player opt, ^^and if they don't approve this trade there will be anarchy.

So why did they pick up chauncy again? lol.

[finestrg]

Poor Chauncey man...Dude's gotta be LIVID right now...I betcha he was just settling down after being dumped by us, thinking about the possibilities of playing with Griffin, Jordan and co, maybe even being the starting PG of that team....now this. I feel for Billups here. He's lashed out publicly a little lately and came off real bitter but he's got a point --- why should an amnestied player not be allowed to pick the team he wants to go to?? And then an amnestied player can't be moved until the followng season?!? WTF is that? Like now, look at this situation -- the Clips trade for Paul, why can't they try to make a trade to accommodate Billups or from their own perspective, to get something for him?? It's a stupid rule imo...Billups may retire now. He's said recently that he doesn't want to be anyone's mentor anymore..And I highly doubt he wants to be Paul's caddy either..

I don't think they thought the league would let him(CP3)get traded, so they covered the backs.Hell they can't trade billups now, after claiming him of waivers.
