The New Orleans Hornets are in a world of hurt; they tried to trade Tyson Chandler for financial reasons at midseason, but the trade was nullified because of a bad toe. And so they still have Chandler's massive contract while their best player, Chris Paul, will get a massive raise beginning next season. With their ugly playoff exit, it appears clear that the Hornets need to revamp their roster and cut costs, and CP3 is their only major asset.
Hence, I believe they should deal Paul and Chandler to Portland for several young (cheap) players, including Greg Oden, and start over. Portland would do the trade because they would immediately become a serious title contender, starting Chandler, Aldridge, Batum/ Wright, Roy, and CP3.
Here's a link to the full trade:
