Here is where is gets tricky with Stern being in charge of the Hornets. If this goes to court how would they explain this:
The league owns the Hornets
The Comish runs the League
But the comish is the employee of owners who are the league
So how does that work.

so Eillison cant buy Hornets so he can move them to San Jose when Stern let Clay Bennett buy the Sonics and move them out of Seattle

As a fan of the NBA and fairness this mess is wrong on so many levels. My issue with this is why would the NBA even allow Demps to orchestrate a trade only to deny permission at the last minute? You would have to think Stern knew about the offers beforehand.

That's why Phil is the Zen Master. He saw this coming from miles away. I miss that guy.

This. The league may technically own the Hornets but other teams/owners are not within their rights to block a trade that the three teams and their management agreed to with no grounds to do so. They may not like CP3 demanding a trade, but it's the Hornets' decision whether they want to accommodate that or not, and they chose to and got what looked like a pretty good deal. You can't just block a trade because other teams don't want it to happen; it's not like he got traded for a stick of gum. Maybe I'm overreacting but I'm absolutely incredulous that Stern did this and I think he should be ousted immediately. [Kanye]No one man should have all that power.[/Kanye]
Also, when whoever it was made that comment about owners being plantation owners and players being slaves, I TOTALLY disagreed and thought he was being ridiculous. After this, I think I might agree with him.

Unless you're a fan of a big market team then what's the point? Why waste your money supporting teams that will never be able to win against these super teams. You think a bunch of teams lost money the last couple of seasons?...let this crap continue for a couple more years and see how healthy the league is. I think right now the deck is stacked against the small markets in the NBA even more so than in baseball which I would have never thought possible.

Seriously whether you're a Laker fan or not, Stern is killing the league he helped made popular.

He's kryptonite to me. It's like we're Odom in this too. We sold the farm for Melo in part, because we thought CP3 was committed to coming here like he said at Melo's wedding toast, but just like that he's down for the Lakers. Now, surprise, we can get him again. But that's a stain that stays with you. Melo had the exact same offer to go play for the Lakers, but he turned it down to play with Amar'e and (he thought) Chris Paul.
I'd rather move along with Tyson Chandler and if that doesn't work, take a shot at D-Will or just fill out a real roster.
What team can Chris Paul play for now? He was ready for the next decade (or until injuries caught up) in Los Angeles.
[It's complicated.]
