So you're forgetting about how trades have to be submitted to the league for approval or when GMs and reporters mention having to throw in picks...
I think the point he was trying to make was that Pau could have killed the deal by threatening not to to report to the Rockets.
The league has always had the power to nix trades.
Small pieces need to be added for the trade to work as well as either Okafor or Scola going to the Lakers. Since it didn't go down we don't know...
He sounded way stoned. "I had a dream" "something spiritual"... WTF? LOL. Didn't he used to have a rep for having very green thumbs when he was...
Either Scola or Okafor had to go to the Lakers too to make the trade work. Then they add this: http://twitter.com/#!/sheridanhoops

Cuban is a big picture guy. Dell Demps not so much.
The big picture is adding all that vet salary between Odom, Martin, and Scola. If they want a buyer, a new owner, they don't want that long term...
Can TWill be the first Rocket traded this season please?
The NBA are tring to sell that team so he hampers the franchise by replacing a superstar with non-superstar vets with large 3-4 yr contracts....
Cutting salary and tanking would be the better option. The Hornets would have either lost Okafor as well or Luis would've gone to the Lakers...
Please Brah :o

Stern saved the NBA.
It was terrible for the Hornets they go from having a supers tar and the playoffs to what the Rockets are now.
Reports are the league didn't veto the deal. The Lakers decided to call it off. They wanted a frontcourt player back and Pau didn't want to come...
They couldn't in the first place.
So Pau denied CP3? Is the NBA office already open for business? since there isn't a NBA until the owners vote.
Sitting out means bot getting paid.
