Anybody still out there?

The NBA has traded Chris Paul to the Los Angeles Clippers in a deal that will pair star forward Blake Griffin with one of the game’s top point guards.

The league-owned New Orleans Hornets will receive guard Eric Gordon, center Chris Kaman, forward Al-Farouq Aminu and the Minnesota Timberwolves’ unprotected 2012 first-round pick in return for Paul.

As part of the deal, Paul has agreed to not opt out of his contract after this season – allowing the Clippers to keep him at least through the 2012-13 season.

After messing around with some different designs/color schemes, I think this one works best. But going to use the old format from detnews, where its just one long continuos thread, with the newest post at the top. I think it'll be easier to keep discussion going that way.

Anyways, Clippers look like contenders now with Paul.

PG Paul/Mo Williams
SG Chauncey
SF Butler
PF Griffin
C Jordan

I think Chauncey is better off the ball now anyways at this point in his career. Thats a fine starting 5, with Mo as the 6th man. Just need some depth in the frontcourt now.

That sucks. I really thought he would've fit great here. I think Joe screwed it up by dicking around with Stuckey. Now he might lose both.

Thanks Flip!

and what is taking sooo long?
Now..I will miss Rip, but if Stuck leaves just can't the same about him.


It's his "tude" more than anything!

Good fit?

I'll miss Rip too, but he should have a better finish to his career with the Bulls than he would've here. I want to see him make another deep playoff run or two, so his career is looked upon better when finished.

Stuckey acts like he's Carmelo Anthony. He's gotta realize he's not a superstar and can't demand all this money. They gotta figure this out soon, because preseason starts Friday, and he hasn't even practiced with the new coaching staff yet. Even if he does sign, he's going to be way behind.

Pretty cool. I can't wait to see this team.

Could there actually be a Clipper Dynasty? lol

Flip .. One Main thread works best ... good work .. Also .. I dont see many comments at the detroitnews .. Glad to see Chauncey wth CP3 and that dunking machine PF the Clips have ... Could work out well for Billups . when you have good PGs .. other good players look forward to joining your team .. Stuckey wouldnt take 8 million a year for 4 or 5 seasons .. FORGET HIM! HE came in here as a great pick by Dumars .. and looked like a great SG off the bench .. and our team totally destroyed his development and his attiude .. This is All on Dumars .. making Stuck play out of position .. and while playing with other players out of position .. And bringing teammates whose atttitudes towards NBA and teamwork SUCKS! More than a few very bad moves on Joe's part and he better not sign Stuck for over 8 million or that would be the ultimate bad move ... I was against Frank being hired but with him coming in here and preaching DEFENSE first . I take everything I said bad about him .. I think I was very wrong . but we will see .. Curry said a lot of great things too .. However ..the players are saying he is fixing their bad techniques in practice .. Always a good thing to hear... Expecting Frank to get the team back to Detroit basketball ..

So Happy Rett is here Hey Booo

I say let Stuckey walk, he obviously believe he's better than he really is. I was so glad reading the Pistons denying they offered that 40-45 million deal when it should be more like 30-35.

[WISEFAN]

I was wondering how Chauncey would fit. I think he'll be okay playing SG with CP3 at point.

High.

We just need a refresh button and we're good.
