Clippers have done great....but there is still that doubt! After all they are the Clippers!

Time will tell but when they are all healthy, CP3 to Griffen combo would be fun to watch. Jordan doesn't mind getting up there either.

Not much depth but real excitement in their starting 5.

Simmons tweeted that Griffin and Jordan were #2 and #3 in the league for dunks last season. Clippers GM should make a call to the Hawks about Josh Smith...

Who was #1?

Dwight (with 13 more than Blake).

Had a mental blank there for a moment

Cheers!

I've been the only Clipper on here for almost 8 years.

To be honest, EG is/was probably my favourite player and its really sad to see him go. I hope the trade doesn't come back to bite us.

And I'm someone who still hasn't gotten over Shaun Livingston. That kid had it all before injury.

People can say what they like about Stern but he had the balls of steel this one and in the end he got both of the things that Clippers were reluctant to give up together. They were prepared to give up one of Gordon or Minny pick but ended up giving both.

If Hornets get a bit of luck and draft smartly, they could be back before you know it. Minny's pick could be top 5. Their own pick could be top 5 and they get a stud young SG in Gordon. F-A is a solid prospect.

Hornets got more for CP3 than what many fans would have hoped for. Its a spanking and miles better than the Lakers deal. Stern held out and got what he wanted in spades.

**** all bigman depth, but Mo and Billups are pretty handy players to have coming off the bench.

Will be watching a lot of their games this year, CP3 + Blake =

I don't know why they caved in and gave up both EG and that unprotected pick. Surely, it was a buyers market and the Clips were in the box seat.

The other thing that bothers me is Bledsoe. I have a high opinion of him but I can't see him being too happy sitting around waiting for game time behind CP - plus Billups and Mo play PG as well. I can imagine him walking for next to nothing as well. And if Deandre goes down we have no back up whatsoever.

I suppose I should be positive but I was actually more positive before the trade....

congrats daytripper!

I am pretty sure Mo might be on the way out somewhere for a big man. Billups can play SG a bit. In fact with CP3, Billups and Bledsoe you would have the best PG rotation in the league full stop. Add in Foye and Butler and its a pretty good rotation (Butler will play SF mostly).

Kings are in the market for a vet PG to come off the bench (not sure Mo fits that bill but hell we are after Jamal Cawford do go figure).

Clippers' frontcourt depth is a problem but starting C and PF are pretty good especially with CP3 setting them up at will.

will be good but wont get past the semis, confrence at max. need a strong 2-guard to win it all. plus it's the clips so dont be suprised if they **** it all up like they do with everything else. they are an absolute joke but for once there doing something that could pay off.

just played as clips against pistons on 2k12.

was close for a quarter before clips went to down. blake had 20 and 7 in 20 mins.

paul 10 assists.

deandre dejordan massive on D. 9 boards as well.

caron-ron butler a nice addition. complimented well before copping an injury (day to day).

billups started at the 2 and chucked up shots with decent success.

 

[Brad Goodman]

Will be interesting to see where Chauncey fits in, hasn't come off the bench in a game since 2002.

 

[WALL-e]

Could start him at the 2, but I'd rather see the Clip amnesty Mo and go after a 2 guard.

 

[peternorth]

they should package mo and billups into a decent 2.
