Reported trade offers for Paul

[Chris]

Celtics:  Rondo, Jeff Green, two #1s (including Clippers pick).  Could include Bradley and Moore, as well.

Warriors:  Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Ekpe Udoh.  Waive Biedrins, sign Chandler.

Clippers:  Some combination of DeAndre Jordan, Eric Bledsoe, Minnesota #1, Eric Gordon (reports vary)

Sources: Sam Amick, Woj, and Berger

Those are all strong offers.  The Clips' offer could be the strongest, depending upon who they include.

The Clippers blow everyone elses deals out of the water... Jordan and Gordan? Thats a huge deal.

Yet, it has been reported by Aldridge that Gordon is NOT being offered.

If Im the Clippers Im doing anything I can to keep Jordan in LA while still prying away Paul... Is that possible?

[Change]

I don't think any team can match Celtics offer. What is there to think about. New Orleans stop being greedy, and take it before Celtics have reservations. Ainge put NO on a clock. 24hrs take it or leave it. C's taking a huge gamble if this trade were to happen.

Celtics best offer. Quality>Quantity Rajon Rondo best player of the bunch. He's locked up for a bargain price. Jeff Green "Mr. Average" is a decent complimentary player. He could flourish with more playing time. The icing on the cake 2 first round picks.

I'm baffled that The New Orleans Hornets are not accepting Celtics package. Is Rondo lack of a outside Jumper that big of a drawback?

On our team...No.  But on a NO team (with no David west), counting on Jeff Green, Trevor Ariza, and Marco Belinelli for offense...yes. It would become a huge deal.  Basically you'd have Rondo, and 3 guys who are each best suited to be a teams 3rd or 4th scoring option. It could be a disaster.

The best thing out of all this regardless what happens?

CP3 and Dwight are NOT going to LA

Rondo, Perk and a #1 for Chris Paul... would you have done it last season, with Perkins about to be a FA?

Just another way to look at it.

You just jinxed it!

No really, these rumors mean absolutely nothing.  These are just the ones that are being leaked out.  We have no idea what the real offers are, and what other teams are in on this.  Not to mention, nothing can be agreed upon until Friday, and I would not be surprised if 1 or 2 teams are just waiting until the last minute to jump in the pool.

yeah, don't forget that around the trade deadline last year, there were absolutely no rumors about a perkins for jeff green / nenad krstic trade.  at least none that i can remember.

Hmm... probably?  With Perkins about the be a FA the deciding factor since we thought Shaq and JO could be healthy.

That Celtics offer really kills. New Orleans is dumb if they don't take it.

If they don't really want Rondo they can deal him away at a later date and probably get another nice package in return for Rondo.

That's how I feel.  Even if they are not fans of Rondo, I feel like they have to consider this immense value that Boston is willing to give up and should be eager to involve us in a 3 way trade to get someone they do like.
