The problem is that the other owners shouldn't be allowed to stop a trade just because it strengthens another (the Lakers). It's a great trade for the Hornets.

Trading the greatest PG since Magic
Trading the greatest PG since Magic
and not receiving an all star or top 3 pick in return is in no way a great trade. They were going to get an above average PF, and above average SG who plays horrible defense, and a below average PG. Then a couple worthless late draft picks. Not a good trade for the Hornets.

Solid Trade

What trade do you think they can get? CP3 has had some pretty big injury issues. He has very little incentive to re-sign with most teams except the Knicks(nothing to trade), the Lakers, the Celtics(Rondo? no thanks), and then what? Maybe the Clippers?
They can't wait it out. At the end of the season he's signing with the Knicks if they don't trade him.

Isaiah's prime basically
Isaiah's prime basically
Isaiah's prime basically coincided with Magic's prime. He only played for a couple of years after Magic retired, and at that point in his career, he wasn't as good as a mid-career Chris Paul. Or a mid-career Jason Kidd or Gary Payton.
Caveat: I'm basing this argument on a glance at basketball-reference.com and my memory as a 10-year-old.

This is too funny.
This is too funny.
Another example of the NBA (not) being Fantastic! It really is a such a joke any more that it is not even funny. Stern has made this league into a laughing stock in the matter of few short years.

Odds that Khloe (or maybe her evil mother) tried to sell themselves to the NBA to make sure the deal didn't go through? I think very good.
You fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The most famous is never get into a land war with Asia. But only slightly less well known is this: never go in against a Sicilian, when death is on the line!

Even if the deal went through, wouldn't he still be behind Fisher?

wtf is up with the league halting a trade like this?
it seems like an arbitrary move; i bet lawsuits are forthcoming.

The league owns the Hornets.
The league owns the Hornets.
The league owns the Hornets. They still have a general manager, of course (Jeff Demps), but from the outside it looks like the suits just facilitated the transfer of a superstar to one of the two biggest markets in the country. People are not happy.
They own the team so they should be able to keep the one asset that might help them sell the team.
