it's not about how much the clips are paying him, it's that he doesn't want to go to the clips at all... | ||

He didn't say that, he said he doesn't want to sit on the bench and he wants to be on a competitive team. He was looking at the Heat/Lakers, but the Clippers have got to be a fun team to play PG on. Plus he's definitely starting over Mo Williams and Bledsoe. Yeah, he didn't get his freedom but he still got a team with huge upside. | ||

As one of the game’s great leaders, and gentlemen, Billups warns that player will be a distant memory should a team claim him off the amnesty waiver wire." chauncey: "I want my freedom. My goal is to control my own destiny. And as you’ve seen in my career, I’ve never been in a position to do that. I know some teams out there are saying, ‘Oh, Chauncey will be great in mentoring’ and I’m tired of that. I’ve got a few good years left to play, and I’m not trying to come in and sit on the bench, or be a mentor. I’m not going to be that guy. I want to go somewhere and win. I want to choose." the clippers, while having some nice young pieces, are nowhere near contenders. he wants another ring, the clips ain't going to get one anytime soon. | ||

And he doesn't say anything about rings, he just says he doesn't want to lose more than he wins (be competitive) and start, both things can be accomplished by the Clippers next year with Chauncey, Gordon, Butler, Griffin, Jordan with a solid 2nd line with Bledsoe, Mo Williams, Gomez, Aminu, Kaman. Thats a team that is 10 people deep, with the only deficiency at the SG position (but made up for by their most consistent player being a SG) He can complain all he wants, but 14 million + profit from next season + playing on a team with 2 backups and a roster that is 10 deep is a lot more enticing than "well its the clippers". | ||

Yeah, he didn't get his freedom but he still got a team with huge upside. The latest I've heard is the NBA is trying aggressively to restart the CP3 trade talks with the Clippers. They realized, after everybody else in the world did, how big of a black eye they're getting from their meddling in the trade talks. If that goes through, Billups isn't starting there either.

I'm having trouble seeing CP3 being allowed to leave the Hornets, which is gonna reeeeally fuck up things in New Orleans next season for years to come. | ||

That'd be an interesting outcome. And the Hornets will miraculously win the NBA draft lottery in 2012 and 2013. Miraculously. | ||
