Tyson Chandler figures it must have been about the money.

More than two years later, the big man who is now energizing the Dallas Mavericks still has no other explanation for why his services weren't welcomed on the Oklahoma City Thunder.

“I honestly feel it had more to do with the salary,” Chandler told The Oklahoman on Wednesday. “Because when I looked at it, it just didn't make sense.”

On Feb. 17, 2009, the Thunder traded Joe Smith, Chris Wilcox and the draft rights to DeVon Hardin to New Orleans in exchange for Chandler. Roughly 24 hours later, the deal was dead. The Thunder had pulled out, rescinding the trade because of health concerns. Chandler's problematic toe troubled the Thunder's medical staff.

“I just didn't see that being that big of an issue,” Chandler said. “It all seemed fishy to be honest with you.”

Hornets general manager Dell Demps laughed at Internet speculation there has been trade talks between the Hornets and Oklahoma City Thunder regarding point guards Chris Paul and Russell Westbrook.

“(Thunder GM) Sam Presti and I, our offices used to be right next to each other, so we still text each other all the time, and I can assure you that has not been a conversation we’ve had,” Demps said, cracking a smile as he spoke to reporters.

Presti and Demps worked together in the San Antonio Spurs’ front office for two years before Presti took the job with the Thunder in 2007.

Paul can opt out of his contract after next season.
