Dan Gilbert is the biggest bitch in the NBA. Guy writes a letter stating how it's not fair. Unbelievable.

I totally agree. I was one of the people who hated Lebron for leaving Cleveland but it looks like he was smart to get away from this loser.

league is a total joke

It really is Upinya. I mean come one Stern, because owners complain about a trade you block it, really?? Its not like the Lakers gave away crap. They gave away an all star big man and a 6th man of the year. Jesus.

Stern you cannot listen to owners who have their own agenda. Cuban is one of the owners complaining, like he doesnt have an agenda. That is one of the free agents he wants next year.

NO gets some solid players for a player that is gone next year, no matter what. Scola, Martin, and Lamar are solid NBA players plus a 1st round pick. LOL at Gilbert who got nothing for Lebron and wants the same thing to happen to NO. F*ck the NBA.

Stern would never get involved if paul and kobe would be traded to the knicks

[manly]

Lakers got gasol in a scam for a 2nd round pick from memphis. Thats why this is a bigger deal than it appears.

lmao lakers the only winners in this. the owners thought this made the lakers too GOOD?!?! did they see who their starting forwards were going to be? it shows you that these guys might be business men and know how to make money, but they really dont know shit about basketball.

[Cali Roots]

I agree Westcoast. They were scared that it would lead to a trade for Howard. It was pathetic on their part.

Secondly, **** the NBA and the Clippers better not give up all that the NBA wants for Paul. To give up Gordon, Beldsoe and Minnesota 1st rd pick (which you know is top 5 at worst) is too much. No way do I make that deal if I am teh Clippers.
