If it's Karl, PP is going somewhere else.  A few years back Paul played for Karl on a US team and my impression was that George and Paul did not see the game the same way.

Did Jabari Parker ask to be traded out of Milwaukee yet?

Two summers ago J-Kidd had verbal deal to re-sign with Mavs (likely w front office job waiting), then bolted for Knicks. Cuban was hot.

Probably not, since a trade between them likely wouldn't be an obvious attempt to circumvent the salary cap.

There's more on this Kidd story:

http://grantland.com/the-triangle/grantland-exclusive-the-jason-kidd-mess-has-a-144-million-pricetag/


The following caught my eye, tucked in near the bottom:

"? The Thunder are indeed paying into the revenue-sharing system, rare for such a tiny market, but they?re slated to make nearly $29 million in profit when everything is netted out. That?s the fifth-best projection in the league, trailing only the Lakers ($100.1 million), Bulls ($61 million), Rockets ($40.7 million), and Celtics ($33.1 million). Again: This memo does not capture the complete financial picture for any organization, but between this estimated profit and the general escalating value of all NBA franchises, it?s fair to take these numbers into account when debating the Thunder?s decision to trade James Harden and duck the luxury tax."

Nailed it.

As a Celtics fan, I'm very, very excited that the Nets lost $140 million last season.  I can't see that organization not falling apart.
