The Lakers can have CP3 at this point. I just don't want to see them get Howard.
Framework for new Chris Paul to LA deal submitted
Source -- Chris Paul-to-Los Angeles Lakers trade resubmitted - ESPN Los Angeles via kwout This is going to happen somehow. The league directive is for the Hornets to get younger and more assets... which may mean Andrew Bynum goes in the deal. If Bynum goes in the deal you can rule out...
Can we even make a deal for him now? If the league can veto the Laker deal, I don't see why they wouldn't veto a deal to the Celtics.

Now they have CP3 and they might have the pieces to trade for Howard. Thank god for the lockout bringing us parity!
Breaking: Chris Paul to Lakers?
Twitter / @WojYahooNBA: The Hornets have started t ... via kwout According to Woj, he's going for Bynum and Odom. I guess that means no pursuit of Chris Paul. And it leaves the Lakers pretty soft in the middle. There's got to be more to this deal, right? And I guess that means Rondo is ...
Woj reports he's a Laker. Looks like they've been gifted another superstar as usual.
Hornets may take Rondo, Green after all
It appeared the Celtics had fallen to the back of the pack in the Chris Paul sweepstakes. For much of the afternoon, Twitter exploded with reports that Houston and the Lakers were working on a three-team deal that would have shipped Pau Gasol to Houston, CP3 to LA, and Luis Scola/Kelvin Martin...
Let's hope that all of this CP3 excitement doesn't make this site forget about Larry Legend's birthday.
Are teams underestimating Rajon Rondo's value?
In case you haven't noticed, Rajon Rondo's name has popped up lately in trade rumors for Chris Paul. Considering Rondo's talent and his affordable contract (4 years, $44 million), I figured he'd be a hot commodity to any GM looking for a point guard. But New Orleans' Dell Demps is not impresse...
Anybody notice how ever since this article came up the Fan Confidence meter on the side is skyrocketing?
Report: Celtics offer Rondo, Green, two 1st round picks for Chris Paul
Via Ken Berger of CBS Sports: The Clippers' opening salvo was an offer that included Eric Gordon and restricted free agent DeAndre Jordan, with L.A. hoping that the prospect of playing with electrifying forward Blake Griffin and the big stage of Los Angeles would be enticing enough to Paul that ...
I actually look at this positively. It'll be tough for our veteran players to make it through some of these back-to-backs, which means players like E'twaun Moore, Avery Bradley, and Jajuan Johnson will get a chance to contribute on those nights. If they get some extra time in our rotation, it might help them develop into legit rotation players in the future.
C's play @ Miami after Christmas. Home opener vs. Detroit

They're just one of the 29 other teams looking to do the same thing.
No way the Lakers get CP3 and Howard (right?)
From gang hideouts to tanning salons, Lakers fans are buzzing about reports that have their team pursuing both Dwight Howard and Chris Paul. I'm here to assure Celtics fans that the likelihood of Mitch Kupchak pulling off two mega-deals is remote. Except there's a massive gap between "want" and ...
That's funny, I thought CP3's heart was in New Orleans?
Report: Chris Paul requests trade to NY
Yahoo! Sports Adrian Wojnarowski and Marc Spears have the scoop: Chris Paul’s agent informed New Orleans officials on Wednesday that his client will not sign a contract extension and wants to be traded to the New York Knicks, league sources told Yahoo! Sports. As soon as the NBA lifts its lockou...
Name me one team that has won a championship with a defense in the bottom ten of the league. You can join Melo and Amare if you want, but the Mike D'Antoni style of basketball isn't championship basketball.
Report: Chris Paul won't sign extension with the Celtics
ESPN's Chris Broussard has an update on the Chris Paul trade speculation: All the chatter about Boston's interest in Chris Paul is a moot point because the All-Star point guard will not sign a long-term contract extension with the Celtics, according to a person close to the situation. Paul, wh...
The Rondo for CP3 rumors are most likely over.

Making sense of the Rondo rumors
The NBA has been "back" for less than a week and already we're getting bombed with Rajon Rondo trade rumors. Only there really aren't any real rumors. There's a lot of crap surrounding the only one nugget in this story that makes sense: The new collective bargaining agreement will allow for a ...
Maybe the Pacers are the third team in the deal for CP3?
Your Morning Dump... Danny offered Rondo, Green for Perk, Westbrook
Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here... highlighting the big storyline. Because there's nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump. After last season's playoffs, the Celtics offered Rajon Rondo and Green to Oklahoma City for Russell Westbrook and Perkins,...
Danny Ainge is looking to hit a home run this free agency. Let's hope he succeeds.
Report: Ainge, Hornets have discussed Rondo for CP3
Sports Illustrated's Sam Amick has taken the Rajon Rondo trade rumors to the next level: Ainge, the sources say, has recently discussed trading Rondo in a deal that nets Paul, but the Hornets don't appear interested in a two-team deal in which Rondo -- who has four years worth approximately $46 ...

Big Baby celebrates the end of the lockout
Gotta hand it to him... that's actually a funny little bit.
Only player I trade him for his CP3.

If Danny gets Tyson Chandler then I might have to change my username to Rondo To Chandler. It'd be an alley-oop fest with him on the team. He's very athletic for his size.
Celtics "Looking Very Hard" at Tyson Chandler?
Earlier tonight on NBATV's primetime show called "Gametime," host Matt Winer reeled off a Top 5 list of questions to NBA reporter David Aldridge. The 4th item on the list (in ascending order) asked about two free agents from the world champion Dallas Mavericks: Tyson Chandler and Caron Butler. ...
Great news for us. We don't want to see him get traded before he hits free agency.
Extend-And-Trade Not So Easy Anymore
At this time a year ago, the NBA world was partially held hostage by Carmelo Anthony's relentless efforts to get out of Denver. Every day there were rumors about where he was heading. One of the reasons for the extended lockout were because of the Melo situation but even more so because of the L...
R.I.P 2011-2012 NBA season. Guess this is what I get for remaining optimistic that we wouldn't miss an entire season.

Twitter / @LarryCoon: No. Can't sign him or trad ... via kwout Ever since the first hints of an amnesty clause started spreading around the basketball world, people have been wondering how to use it. I've already determined there's probably no way for the Celtics to use it, but some hav...
It's pretty clear that the owners are trying to make Garnett look like the bad guy for standing up for his fellow players. Really, Garnett is the perfect person for them to go after. He's had some history with on-court antics so anybody reading the article would immediately blame him.
We knew from the start that this lockout would get ugly and it shows in this article. The NBA is ready to throw some punches at the players and turn the fans against them. Expect the players to return the favor.

Someone should tweet this to Dwight. He might want to see what he can expect with Rondo as a teammate.
Reason #9,999 Why Rondo is Awesome
The NBA lockout keeps teasing and tormenting us with billionaires and millionaires incessantly fighting over piles of cash that even Scrooge McDuck would shake his head over. So unfortunately, we've all been relegated to random all-star barnstorming tours that feature nothing but dunks and no d...
Couldn't agree more.
Stern blows up the first two weeks
David Stern blew up the first two weeks of the regular season, costing the Celtics home games against Cleveland, Charlotte and the Clippers. So no Blake Griffin in Boston this season. Sorry Celtics fans. You lose on what would have been a must-see player. I had to cut and paste this part of...
Well, so much for progress:
