One day after Chris Paul learned his trade to the Los Angeles Lakers wasn’t going to happen, he showed up nonetheless for the opening of Hornets training camp in suburban New Orleans. Here’s what Hitler had to say hahaha. My opinion, Stern actually screwed The Hornets by blocking the trade. At the end of the season,the Hornets will get the same thing that Cavs got when Lebron left(ABSOLUTELY NOTHING). If a player isn’t going to resign, its better to trade him than get nothing.

A three-team deal was in the works Thursday that would have sent Hornets All-Star guard Chris Paul to the Los Angeles Lakers and involve the Houston Rockets, people familiar with the negotiations who requested anonymity because the deal was not finalized told the Associated Press.

But the league did not let it go through, NBA spokesman Mike Bass said, “for basketball reasons.” *usatoday*
