Hornets talks getting very serious with Warriors, Clippers and Celtics

[Clippersfan86]

The Clippers' starting 5 looks too nice!

One question though: how would the Clippers manage to keep Eric Gordon (and, to a lesser extent, DeAndre Jordan) while getting Chris Paul? Because I am certain that NO would want Gordon as part of any package for CP3...

Eric Gordon has been pulled from all offers. DJ may go out though. Maybe that's why CP3 is demanding a Chandler signing? If DJ is part of a CP3 trade then of course we should grab Chandler to fill in.

CP3
Gordon
Butler
Griffin
Chandler

so it's possible/likely that we could get CP3 while keeping EJ and DJ?

Paul/Gordon/Caron/Blake/DeAndre would be nuts, even if we don't get Butler.

[Rose]

Pardon my Hawkfan but!

Hornets get DJ, Aminu, Minny's first, and Bledsoe
Clippers get CP3, and Ariza.

Sign Tyson chandler in free agency

THEN.

Flip EJ and Ariza for Afflalo in an extend and trade. also get back a future pick or say, Gallo.


Cp3-Afflalo-Gallo-Blake-Chandler
Foye-someone-Gomes-Smith-Kaman


That's a pretty ****ing solid team if I do say so myself (and I do)

[Brujesino]

Hes going to the warriors

[EnoughSaid]

EJ >>>>> Aflallo.

[Clippersfan86]

Clippers most recent offer was supposedly....

DeAndre Jordan, Al Farouq Aminu, Eric Bledsoe and Minny pick. So THIS is why CP3 is pushing for the Clippers to sign Chandler. I'm sure team would agree with getting Chandler without DJ.

[Clutch]

CP3 says he won't go anywhere without Tyson Chandler.

It seems like the new Knicks lineup will be
CP3
Fields
Melo
Amare
Chandler

Easily, but you can't pay CP3, Ej, Blake, and Chandler.


You can pay Afflalo and the rest though. He won't make max. He'll get half around 10 million a year.

why not leave out that last step if the first part is possible?

[AirRaptor]

CP3
Gordon
Butler
Griffin
Chandler

According to Woj, the Clippers appear unwilling to give Chandler the $12 million/year contract he is looking for (for long term money concerns), but if it means securing CP3, there should be no hesitation.

Why take on Ariza's contract if you can avoid it? take back more assets so you can retool your team later if you have too. plus if you get a pick back it could do wonders for you down the road. because with CP3 and Blake your lottery days are over. You might be lucky to see a top 25 pick or so if the Clippers get built right.

If that deal is truly on the table and Clips need to nut up and overpay chandler

Only problem would be filling SF slot.

Too many people playing with Sterling's money.

you mentioned Ariza.

If it's possible for the Clippers to give up DJ, Aminu, Minny's first, and Bledsoe for CP3 and then get Chandler, I say do it.. I don't see a reason to trade Gordon for Afflalo if that scenario is possible.
