SDH Presents from TYT Sports: What if Chris Paul Was a Laker?

Looking back at the +Chris Paul trade, the end result had a massive effect around the league. The original deal, that was cancelled 45 minutes after the green light was given, would have sent Chris Paul to the +Los Angeles Lakers  - instead Paul landed on the +Los Angeles Clippers , and the rest was history. A bunch of scenarios would have transformed teams like the +Houston Rockets , who would have gotten +Pau Gasol in the original deal and the +New Orleans Pelicans would probably be without Anthony Davis. And most importantly - the Los Angeles Lakers would have had the leagues best point guard, and would most likely not be in the brutal situation they are in now.

How different would the league be if CP3 was on the Lakers? Would +Dwight Howard  still have been a Laker? Would the Gasol led Rockets make a championship run? See what the folks from +TYT Sports have to say and always keep up with all 30+NBA teams right here on +Slap Dog Hoops. Also, please kind enough to share this post by simply clicking the Facebook, Twitter, G+, and Pinterest buttons below.  It would be greatly appreciated; Thanks!

SDH Presents from TYT Sports: Could the Kentucky Wildcats Beat the 76ers?

+Eric Bledsoe , guard for the +Phoenix Suns  and Kentucky alum, mentioned on Sirius XM radio that the Wildcats would beat the 76ers in a 7 game series. The +Kentucky Wildcats have one of the best college basketball teams in recent memory, and they currently hold (and most likely will continue to hold) the #1 ranking in the country. The +Philadelphia 76ers  are 0-11 and are doing a fantastic job at tanking the season for the draft lottery.
