Dan Gilberts letter actually created another superteam. If the Lakers trade had gone through half of this shit wouldn't happen.

I agree, Clippers going fantasy, IMO Hrvoje and Dexter should go to USA and the NBA HQ to veto this signing...

*Waits for Paul to go crazy and blow up*...

Clippers are literally going #fantasy

It's ridiculous. I still don't think they could win it all but adding JR to the equation makes things different. #nervous

Well I'm ok with someone else winning the championship other than the usual suspects. And Paul sure deserves to get one or two.
A Clippers vs Bulls/Miami would be fun.

^ thunder are going to the finals

Hopefully not I can't stand that team.

You can't stand the thunder, but you can stand the clippers? Interesting..

Clippers still havent go #fantasy, they made 1 big trade, and rest was all FA signings and youre allowed to sign unlimited # of players.

It took only what 30 years for Sterling to find out that you can make more money when you pay good money for good players, than you can save money by letting every high-demanding player go away. Props.

It ain't a franchise thing. For some reason, even I dont know why, I can't stand neither KD or Westbrook. They just go on my nerves.

After watching the Sonicsgate documentary I despise the Thunder organization. Even though the players are the same I hope they fail in everything. Much like how I felt about early 00's Kings.

They can win it with Kmart only, CP3 is a beast of another level, Clippers vs Bulls would be lovely, CP3 deserves it I agree...

lol @ someone who ruins the NBA "deserving" a championship.

That's like giving a rapist a key to the city

He ruined the NBA? You're crazy...

Kobe Bryant + Pretend City keys
to make it even worse -> Pretend City is a small city just for kids.

Lets go Leroy..

I lost respect for CP3. Not gonna lie. He could have played this year in NOLA and moved on. Instead, he cried his way out. At least LeBron waited until his contract was up before taking his talents elsewhere.

Clippers v Heat in the Finals would be awful. I'd have to root for the Clippers and that would be miserable. Anyone winning would be better than the Heat but barely.

Thunder v Clippers would be a HIGHLY entertaining series. There's still too much unknown about the west at this point. If Dirk gets healthy the Mavs can beat anyone in a 7 gm series. The Lakers are still capable. Nuggets are solid, probably not a threat yet though. I'm not sold on Vinny Del Negro as a championship caliber coach.

Mike Brown > Vinny

Actually, if he would've play the whole season and "moved on" as you say it then NOLA wouldn't have gotten anything back. This way they at the very least get Eric Gordon, Al-Farouq Aminu & Chris Kaman which are very good trading pieces.

^^^ only one who would give them anything at all is Gordon. Might get a 2nd rd pick with kaman and aminu is awful

A 2nd round pick with Kaman? Are you... Chris Kaman. He's a starting quality center in a league that's greatly lacking centers. Given playing time, he can get you a nice 15 points and 8 rebounds a game. Aminu is young and sure he isn't a future star but a bunch of teams lack a nice bench, Aminu is a decent role player. He's not the catalyst for the trade either. Even if you had this belief that all three of these guys sucked, better get something than nothing. Either way, CP3 walking out < CP3 traded.

Kamans been god awful since his injuries. No chance in hell he starts anywhere, backup to Indy MAYBE. Aminu is just awful though, don't wanna get into a convo about what he can or can't do now or later etc. He's just horrid

Considering Gordon doesn't wanna play for NOLA, it was a horrid trade

Gordon was willing to re-sign with NOLA, David Stern didn't offer in time. I'm not gonna lie, it was a bad trade but it won't change the fact that it's better than nothing. If the Lakers/Rockets trade would've gone through then that would've been much better with Luis Scola & Kevin Martin.

That's what gordon says so he won't look like a douche. Imagine if he actually said, "fuck this place I'm leaving ASAP." Hes leaving NOLA but he'll fake the whole "decision process"

He's gonna go sign a contract with Indiana Pacers.

Kevin Love world's biggest all-star snub >_<

Well it's the peoples vote so obviously blake got in. He should be a reserve though.

The Spurs are better than any team in the West right now, even without Manu, my favorite for the Finals from the West so far...

How can you say that? That's out of logic Bryan, look, LeBron said, IDK if I'm gonna sign, probably, then he makes the DECISION, GIVES the middle finger to Cleveland and leaves like a douche, CP3 after a tough exit vs Spurs 2nd round game 7, then Nuggets 1st round and then Lakers 1st round in the playoffs he says, I'm going to leave now because I want y'all to get something for me, he could've left in the offseason and NOLA wouldn't have got even ERIC GORDON AMINU and KAMAN ffs...So he was at least nice and he loves the fans and community, but he wants to win now and he wants it badly can't blame him for that...But still, I would love to see him in NOLA, but it is what it is, it's good that he ain't a Laker, Cavs got SHIT from LeBron and disrespect, CP3 respected the organization told em professionally that he wants to win now, they can't make it happen, handles the press well, Hornets get a great potential in Gordon to be a superstar in the league and get Aminu a potential and Kaman a trade bait, so Hornets got something and he respected them...
