Obviously, the Hornets have not changed position in the last week or two. It's Paul who has completely upped his bluff.

Fair or not, in scanning the Paul situation, I think the Mavs misread Paul's discontentment even if they read the Hornets' position correctly (who in their right mind would part with a 25 year old top 5 player if he wants to stay)..

I'm pessimistic, almost to the point of sarcastic, but let's use these much ballyhooed trade assets. Who the heck else are we trading 30M in expirings for?
