Report: Celtics Trying To Build Three-Team Trade To Acquire Chris Paul

The Boston Celtics seem determined to trade for New Orleans Hornets point guard Chris Paul.  An earlier report had them offering a package of players and draft picks; now, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports, Boston is also presenting the Hornets with "multiple 3-team trade scenarios" in an attempt to find something that will work.

Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Clippers are also attempting to put together a package to acquire Paul, but one player that won't be included is guard Eric Gordon.  According to Wojnarowski, the Clippers have told Gordon that he will not be included as part of any deal for Paul.
