Gordon is a RFA after this season (i think)

Terrible deal for the clippers.

Also anyone know if leaguepass broadband gets preseason games?

Yep. I'm pretty sure no one is going to be able to outbid New Orleans for him when his next contract situation comes up, and assuming nothing catastrophic happens to him they'll probably sign him to a 5 year deal.

yup. just like they used to say about that guy Chris a few years ago..

and Sterling, once again showing execs what not to do...over and over and over. Can't say Clippers agreeing didn't cross my mind when I heard Lakers jumping back into the CP3 discussions

i can understand that new orleans got the better end of the trade, but.. was the trade really THIS one sided?

i mean come on its cp3 we're talking about here

But they have 2 previous-all star PGs already. Granted, neither is a superstar but it's not like PG was one of their weaknesses.

but would you rather paul or billups/mo time share. if you had a chance to sign one of the best PGs ever, you would! that's my opinion anyway

No, I'd rather have Eric Gordon and Minnesota's #1 pick + Chauncey/Mo.

I don't think the step up to CP3 is significant enough for those. They had a strength at SG and relative strength at PG, now they have a high strength at PG and weakness at SG and missing a top pick. That doesn't do it for me.

yeah in the end i think we can all agree that the trade wasn't the best choice for clippers, but i dont think its that bad.

anyways, for entertainment purposes, i think it's going to be awesome - i used to watch clippers a little bit just cuz of blake griffin but now with cp3, they're gonna be pretty damn fun to watch (i hope)

I don't know why people are pretending Eric Gordon is close to Chris Paul's level, or that players like Chris Paul grow on trees. This is a better trade up than Al Jefferson + stuff and picks for Kevin Garnett.
