"(New Orleans general manager Dell Demps) had agreed to (trade Paul to the Lakers for) Kevin Martin and Luis Scola or something, and I said we can do better than that.... And the next trade was (to the Clippers for) Eric Gordon and Al-Farouq Aminu and what we thought was a really great draft pick, the 10th pick, which turned out to be Austin Rivers. At least those three and someone else (center Chris Kaman). But Dell Demps is a lousy general manager and none of those players are currently with the team anymore, and he may lose Anthony Davis."

This came during a longform sitdown with Stern by Chris Ballard at S.I. The whole thing is worth reading.
