Re: Hypothetical: would you trade Chris Paul?

Maybe the GM would trade Paul for Lebron. But the OP is asking the fans, not the GM.
So if someone wants to be traded (even demands it) you trade him for far under his value? Would you support trading Chris Paul and a bad contract on your team of your GM's choice (I don't know your team well enough to throw out a realistic name, I'll admit that) to the New York Knicks for Nate Robinson and the expiring Malik Rose? I mean, Nate is and will be a better player then Speedy will ever be, but I'm sure you don't see that trade as being fair for your team. I as a Knicks fan would love that trade to happen, but I wouldn't suggest it on the message boards, knowing full well that the chance it happens is about as good as that of David West becoming the next Kareem Abdul Jabar.
