The worst part is, is CP3 informed the GM Demps that he will not be signing an extension during the season or in the off season..
So Demps spent the week fielding offers and found a GREAT DEAL (all things considered), because he knew he couldn't keep CP3 but for this 1 season..
That's how it works.. Sten likes the "It's a business" talk when it comes from owners.. But when it comes from players, he won't allow it.
Paul has been great to NO and the Hornets. And I am sure had this trade never "happened" Paul would be busting his +%* for the Hornets, and would still leave July 1st.. But it was Demps choice to look for offers in which he succeeded in one that would keep the Hornets a potential playoff team with room to build as well.
Facepalms all around.. Once again you wonder why there was a lockout, and wonder why it took so long because the owners just want to "own" a team to say they own a team. They complain about they are losing money.. That's because you suck.. You want to make money, you have to win.. You want to win, you need to spend money even if you don't have it, be unprofitable as you spend money to win for a few years until you have a winning team which increases all forms of revenue..
