Just when we were saying our goodbyes to Lamar Odom and Pau Gasol. The NBA comes in and stomps all over the trade that would’ve sent Hornets All-Star Chris Paul to the Lakers and sending Lamar Odom to the Hornets and Gasol to the Rockets.
It’s rumored that several owners felt the trade was unfair and encouraged Commissioner Stern to flex his power as the owner of the Hornets (the NBA). Orrrrr, it just hit some sort of snag and it’s still being worked out. Either way, stay tuned. NBA training camps open tomorrow and there are rumblings CP3 won’t be reporting to camp.
Oh and shout outs to Shannon Brown for all his contributions. He’s signing with the Phoenix Suns for $3.5 million. The contract he opted out from in L.A., $2.7 Million.
Did the small markets win, I can’t remember?
