    via The Game-

    .......And it was Portland's!
    No mention of players on either side were included but one has to assume if they do decide to trade Paul, he could be headed here. Also of note, Orlando didn't have much of a chance with their offer. Portland or bust is what its looking like.

    looks like ill be listening to the game all day at work tomorrow...watching comcast sports net tonight, staying glued to the message boards and refreshing nba.com webpage lol. I wanna know who was offered to go and who was requested to come here. Looks like we got NO thinking. Which isnt really a surprise to me. We have the best setup for offers to keep NO thinking. Awesome post DHawes22!!

    This was the offer.

    "The proposed deal had Portland sending Andre Miller, Joel Przybilla, Nicolas Batum, Jerryd Bayless and the 22nd pick to New Orleans for Paul and Emeka Okafor."

    It says the owner didn't want to trade Paul at that moment, but this could give you an idea of what we would lose and what we would gain. My guess is that New Orleans will offer him for the same deal if they decide to trade.

    That was the offer from during the draft right? I thought from this post it meant Portland made another run for him in the last day or two. But I could have been confused.

    Someone mentioned around here that Barrett heard Batum was NOT apart of Paul trade talks, which would have meant G.O. had to be included if we had the best offer on the table. It saddens me to think of trading a talent like Oden, but I wouldn't be mad if we dealt him for Paul, it'd be a great return on our investment. Oden is more important to winning a title, but who knows if he'll be healthy?

    Cho has not been on the job a month yet but you can believe his first move was to NOT TRADE GREG ODEN. The same as the Hornets GM was not going to trade Paul as his first move. New Orleans is telling CP3 to wait and be patient and this will last until the trade deadline when the Hornets are battling the Wolves for who has the most ping pong balls in next year's draft. Paul has the same team aroung him as Lebron and Chris wants to win now and not wait until a year from now to try and get a FA to come and play for the Hornets. Just because you have money to spend does not mean sh** if you can't get players to come and play for you ask the Bulls and Knicks.

    yeah thats what i like to hear Cho make this deal happen but i do agree with light on NO will try and stall for as long as thay can and paul wants to win greg oden show last year flashes of being that brusier dwight howardish thats why i dont think portland wants to keep him and oden works his tale off its not like he doesnt want to play either just sit back and take the money no oden wants to play to and roy needs to help cho out and voice himself for FA or towards another star like paul that wants to be traded and say hey CP3 my brother look what we did last year with like half a roster year we won that many games you come here and help me out bro we win championship. Is i love roy but sometimes you look at guys like wade and lebron before he went to miami they would try and say hey you should come and play ball with me we win more games and championship roy just needs to help cho and cho needs to make this happen.

    First need is a centre. And no one will take ten and 13 for 4th or 5th. After like the 10th pick the talent off is huge.
