Totally agree with DJ here. I don't think this trade with the Knicks was ever seriously considered by LAC.
It's called denial. Dunleavy reached out to the Knicks, not the other way around. Trust Walsh, don't trust Walsh, fine whatever but all evidence indicates that the Clippers began talks. Are you saying Dunleavy was calling Walsh to tease him? Walsh feels like he can back a lot for Randolph than a salary dump move and a 2nd round. Only time will tell with Walsh's decision.
Who knows what was asked for? The first report that you posted said the Clippers also offered Jordan and Cuttino then a day later a report comes out and says that it was just for a 2nd round pick. And this is all coming from the same source (SI), so who really knows what was offered.
How do we know that the Clippers didn't also ask for Lee/Chandler to be involved?
The first report was a 2nd rounder. Walsh wanted more, Dunleavy next offer was Cuttino and DeAndre Jordan, still not enough for Walsh. Who knows what value Walsh has on Randolph. Could be more than what others think. The guy is a 20/10 player, so I won't really kill him for that, I will not say Walsh actually killed the deal with the Gordon talk but it sure looks like it. But to walk away from this and say no, there was no serious talks with Clippers is just denial. It could be possible that Lee or Chandler was asked for, I don't know. But I do know this that the Denver deal seem to take place after all the Knicks/Clippers talks stalled.
