Which deal would you rather take?

D-Will:

Devin Harris
Favors
Nets Pick (Turned into 3rd Overall)
GS Pick (remains to be seen)

CP3:

Eric Gordon
Kaman
Aminu
Unprotected Minnesota 1st

CP3 deal looks a little better doesn't it?

Another important question is do you think Deron would have the same value as CP3, league-wide?
 
Wow they finally got it done. The Clippers gave up a lot in Gordon, Kaman, Aminu, and Minny's pick (likely be top 5 in a stacked draft).
 
They are both good packages.

The best "piece" that's a player is Gordon, and the best "pick" could be Minnesota's first.

Best potential probably is Favors, and the Jazz got lucky with the pick and got it at #3.

Solid all around.
 
I like the Jazz's haul because it's a more coherent rebuilding strategy. You can build a team around Favors in the middle. Whereas Gordon and Aminu aren't going to change the direction of a franchise. Obviously, who NOR gets in the draft--their own pick and the Minny pick--will go a long way to complete the deal. But there are only really one or two franchise bigs in this next draft and no obvious franchise PGs. NOR would have to get a top-2 pick.
 
Still surprised Clippers splurged that much. Feel bad for Gordon, I think they told him they wouldn't be trading him a week ago.

Gordon and Aminu definitely have potential to change franchise. Gordon might be the best 2-guard 5 years down the road. Aminu is still really young and had a decent rookie year, don't really know too much about him but he was a Mid-lottery pick and most likely has good potential.
 
I don't think highly of Aminu, but Gordon is definitely a Mitch Richmond type player. Can easily see him as the best player on a middling team, or second best on a great team.
 
This trade sucks for Clips unless CP signs extension. And even with extension this trade is meh.
