Ultimately it comes down to where Chris Paul wants to play. Milwaukee could put together the best package in the world for him, but if he won't sign the extension, it doesn't matter.
Just because a team loses a player to free agency, doesn't mean they have to receive compensation for him.

How would it be boring? Every team having a chance to be competitive so it's not just 3 or 4 superstar teams competing? It's not boring.

As a fan of the NBA, that is bad news. As a fan of a small market NBA team, that is good news.

Yes, it is bad news for NBA fans that live in a city without an NBA team, and there are alot....also bad news for fans worldwide who has no hometeam to root for.

Fans that actually go to NBA games in person are the leagues primary and most important constituents.

The package they could get from the NYK isn't worth losing a half a season of CP3. I understand what you are saying, I just said the same thing in the Howard thread but no amount of leverage is going to force that trade to NY.

Who says they take any deal at all? If Paul doesn't agree to an extension, then no team is going to give up any significant pieces to get him for 30 games or whatever.

The gameplay itself gets boring....you need 3-4 superstars on the court to excecute great plays, like a great dribble by Wade quick pass to Bosh who finds Lebron with a great pass and he finishes it off with an awesome dunk.......same scenario for Celtics, Bulls and Lakers........and so on......for chock and awe and entertainment we need the big teams.
.
also for passion and hate, and surprise when an underdog upsets a big team

I get plenty excited from seeing a dunk from Ronnie Price or CJ Miles... The difference is when someone like Bosh does it, it's gonna be nationally telivised, when small market regular players do it no one knows about it
