Pretty good read. I bet Gordon would have some extra pep in his step if CP3 were to return.

Great article. I just can't see him swallowing his pride and coming back. I would be all for it though.

I see CP3 trying to get a good coach in LA to replace Vinny rather than returning to NOLA.
Doesn't hurt to make an offer as long as we get an answer before it costs us other FAs, like Pekovic, in the event he delays a decision a la Lebron.

It would make a lot of sense for Chris to come back to Nola. The team is in the best shape it has been in a long time. The biggest thing the Hornets have now that they never had when CP3 was here is Gordon. Together they would have the potential to become the best backcourt in the NBA.
Maybe I am getting my hopes up just to be let down, but I am praying Chris gives the organization a hard look. Do work Dell!

Been dreaming about this ever since he left, watching him throw lobs to Anthony Davis in the Olympics was awesome. I think deep down he saw something there too.

FWIW CP sneaks into the city alot during the offseason and is still very active in the community here in NOLA. Wherever he goes I don't think that will ever change. He also has huge respect for the people in the city. I think he felt he had to leave for the sake of his career, but it wasn't a easy decision. I don't see him playing for the Pelicans, until after his next contract is up. I would say Atlanta and Houston seem to be the front runners at this point.

I don't think our market is big enough for Lebron's little BFF
Us peasants in New Orleans aren't worthy of someone of his talents

All of his people are happy with him in LA where they can make the most money off of him. They will tell him he should stay and make excuses about how the Clippers actually should have won (CJ already tweeted about the officials and said the fix was in). I only see 2 reasons he leaves. If Dwight leaves too I can see him teaming up, which makes Atlanta the favorites followed by Houston. If he really hates it there I can see him leaving with the Pelicans in the conversation but Houston the likely landing spot. It would have to be a hell of a sales job by Demps to beat out Houston. If Paul leaves he needs to compete immediately, not go to another 1st or 2nd round exit team.

Some CP3 quotes:
LINK
quote:
"I don't know how this whole thing is going to play out," Paul said. "I'm going to pray about it. We'll see."
"All season long, it's something that I said I would address after the season and I really didn't think about it all during the season," Paul said. "The season's not even 24 hours from being over, so I really haven't thought about it. The craziest thing is that this season is over. I still haven't got that wrapped around my brain."
"When I woke up this morning, little Chris had gotten in my bed and the first thing he said was, 'Daddy, why you lose again?' " Paul said. "I told my wife last night on the bus riding to the airport, that's the toughest thing now. He's old enough to understand what's going on and that we don't have any more games to go. I think about that type of stuff because that's my guy and we don't have any more games. He's going to be a little confused."
Paul said he wouldn't necessarily have to be recruiting to stay with the Clippers, but also wasn't patting himself on the back for turning around the franchise from where it was before he arrived.
"I don't know. This right here was unacceptable," Paul said. "We lost in the first round to a good Memphis team but a team we were capable of beating. There are no moral victories ... I have nothing to do. This is unreal. We only played two weeks long than everyone else that didn't make the playoffs. That sucks. That stings."
Whether Paul believes the Clippers are capable of playing more than two weeks into the postseason likely will go a long way in deciding whether or not he will re-sign this summer, but he's in no rush to make that decision.
"I'm going to take my time," Paul said. "I haven't even thought about it. I'm trying to figure out what I'm going to do the rest of the day. I might go home and swim with my son or something. This is nuts. I don't know what to do. I purposely didn't put anything on my calendar because we're supposed to still be playing."
