Once again, the LAC deal (for the Hornets) was much better in the long run than the LAL.

Not too hard to understand.

And Stern was looking out for the best interest of the Hornets. He wanted to best package for Paul, which he got, that would help the team attract an owner and stay in New Orleans long term.

Why the frick would Stern be against the NBA's most storied franchise possibly creating a super team to compete against the Heat?

There was pressure from the other owners, which is why the trade didn't go through.

His intentions were focused with the Hornets. He wants to find an owner. He knows what is attractive to possible buyers. He wants the team to stay in New Orleans.

I don't argue that, but Stern is still a clown for cock blockin.

The deal the Hornets got will be better for the team three years down the line.

It's going to be pointless trying to explain this to you, I can see.

Stern was looking out for the best interest of the team he currently owns, the Hornets. He felt he could get better for Paul than the LAL deal, and he did.

Why the frick, I think we already know that. The deal with the Lakers from the start was a good deal. All three teams benefitted, the Lakers would have given up two of their prominent bigs, so a so called super team with Paul suddenly doesn't look so super. Stern is a clown, the deal with the Clippers is good, but the first deal was good to, nothing wrong with it at all. To make Demps look like an arse is just plain wrong, frick Stern.

Stern did what was best for the Hornets, looking back.

And this deal is absolutely better than the deal that would have gotten us Odom, Martin, and Scola.

So, by your logic, the first good deal a team is offered for a star player they should accept?

Get real, man. Stern wasn't trying to stick it to the Lakers. He was helping the Hornets. Take your Stern hating glasses off, dumb shite.

Your GM (Demps) if you don't know who I'm talkin about goes through all this work to make a great deal and you cancel it, makin him look stupid. This was a good deal, nothing wrong with it, except Stern didn't wanna see the Lakers get Paul. frick, you get real. a-hole. Can't get somebody to agree with your stupid arse so you call'em names. way to go dick.

Stern is an a-hole and an egomaniac but he's a very smart man.

The owners who pressured Stern to cancel the deal didn't want the Lakers to get Paul.

If Stern could have it all his way, the Lakers would get Paul.

Yeah, I don't get that line of thinking. If it was up to the NBA, the Lakers and Celtics/Knicks would be in the finals every year.

I doubt that, man, the all powerful Stern isn't gonna be pressured by some lowly small market owners.

Option A:

Demps "works hard" and gets a "good deal" (according to you) with the LAL; therefore, Stern, who currently owns the franchise, should go through with the trade because it's the first good deal on the table which his GM produced.

Option B:

Demps "works hard" and gets a "good deal" (according to you) with the LAL; however, Stern, who currently owns the franchise, believes his top five player in the League and super star PG is worth better, younger talent. Stern, who knows the League better than Demps, then executes a far better deal with the LAC landing a potential top 5 pick in one of the deepest Drafts in NBA history, an up-and-coming star scorer in Gordon, a talented, raw forward in Aminu, and a legit NBA C and expiring contract in Kaman.

If you choose Option A, then you're the idiot.

When those owners each own a part of the Hornets, you bet your arse he will.

You're pretty misinformed if you don't think Stern would like Paul to the Lakers. The league would be at its highest popularity with four super teams fighting it out in the playoffs each year.

Stern didn't put together the Heat, Pat Riley did. If Stern had it his way, the big market teams would win every year.
