Two ways to get Chris Paul

[gpap]

Trade Rondo AND KG to N.O. for Paul and Okafor. Then sign David West to PF. CP has 2 teammates from N.O. with him and a chance to team up with DH12 in the offseason, here in Boston.

Chris Paul has already shown his cards, its Knicks or bust.

How exactly do we sign David West without any cap room to do so?

That team couldnt get it done in N.O. i know Ray and Paul would change but they've proven to me they cant win as a trio somewhere else, why bring them all here to play together again.

KG is necessary for any efforts to win this year, and I don't know why NO would take Rondo + KG when they've said they don't want Rondo because they'd rather have young pieces around whom they can rebuild.

Don't think Paul's said "Knicks or bust" at all. It's his preference, it won't work, and now he's just asking for a trade.

... what's the other way?

We wouldn't have any cap space to sign West, even after moving Rondo and KG.  Similarly, we wouldn't have any cap space the following year to sign Howard.
