Sure, but they lost Splitter and Joseph. Still got Mills but they need a backup C. Splitter was good both defensively and offensively plus he caught his fair share of boards. Who's their backup SF anyway? Parker Green Leonard Aldridge Duncan Mills Manu ??? West/Diaw Bonner
The Spurs Now have Enough Interchangeable Post Parts, to Where Backup Center/ BackUp Small Forward Should Be the LEAST of Their Worries... REED:hammert:
Cavs and trade negotiating a Crawford - Haywood swap. http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports....ing-jamal-crawford-for-brendan-haywood-trade/ A motivated Crawford playing with Lebron? Sounds good to me.
They're in DESPERATE Need of a Center, Now that DeAndre Jordan's a Maverick...Worse, the Mav's Former Center, Tyson Chandler, Signed w/Phoenix Already... Crawford for Haywood Should Be an Absolute LASTfuckingRESORT Move, if NATHAN Else Pans Out...The Clippers are Talking w/JaVale McGee and Amare Stoudemire, who Certainly AREN'T the Answer, but they're BETTER than Haywood, Undoubtedly... REED Would Even Consider Trying to Acquire Andrew Bogut, Who was VERY Unhappy w/Being Benched in the NBA Finals & May Be Interested in Playing Elsewhere... Losing Jordan was QUITE a Blow to the Clippers & More than Anybody, Chris Paul Needs to Look HIMSELF In the Mirror & Shoulder Some Blame...Paul CAN Be a Good Leader @ Times, but the Approach he Chose to Take w/Jordan is the PRIMARY Reason Dre Left... REED:hammert:
haywood is worthless at this point. if the clippers are gonna deal crawford they should try to get something in return
Apparently, Deandre Jordan had second thoughts about Dallas and called Doc Rivers. They're scheduled to meet today along Reddick and Griffin. Cuban will fly to HOU too.
Chris Paul should be there with Flowers. Fuck man. Jordan was having his best season. To lose him would be fucking insane.
Watching them play together, I get the feeling Chris Paul thinks DeAndre is a fucking idiot with no basketball sense. Him thinking he should be the focal point of an offense just confirms it for me.
CP and Deandre don't get along. Stems from Paul dissing him during games and in the locker-room. Not sure why Deandre wants to go back to a place where they belittle him. Cuban made sure to let him know that the team was all his. I guess Jordan wants the money.
CP just needs to work on his leadership skills when handling people. Jordan will never the focal point of any team. He needs someone like CP3 there to make him look good. IF DJ is smart, he stays with the Clippers. Much better chance at a ring than with Dallas.
Because Doc has Probably ASSURED Dre Paul WON'T Fuck w/Him Anymore...Paul has ALSO Been @ Odds w/Blake Griffin a Time or 2 as Well, so Dude Needs to Check HIMSELF, For Real... If Paul had A Ring or A Conference Finals Appearance to Speak Of, it'd Be More Tolerable that he Can Be a DICK to Teammates @ Times...But Paul has NATHAN...GREAT Player, Good Leader, but there's MANY Ways to LEAD a Team...Belittling a Teammate when You Yourself HAVEN'T Lead a Team to Anything Noteworthy, Gets OLD...Kobe and Jordan Could Get Away w/It Because their Teammates Got RINGS when it was All Said and Done... w/Out Dre (Who Does ALL the Dirty Work for the Otherwise FINESSE Clippers), the Clippers Drop from a Possible Top Seed in the West, to Scratching and Clawing to MAKE the Playoffs... It's Good for the Clippers AND Dre, if he Returns to LA...& Dude will FOREVER Be HATED in Dallas... REED:laugh11:
Question, with it now in vogue for NBA teams to tank, are 41-41 teams now considered the ultimate "losers" in the NBA?
Amare Stoudemire joins Miami, Deron Williams got his contract bought out by the Nets, will join Dallas.
This guy looked like Greg Oden 2.0 from the very beginning. Not sure why teams waste high picks on injury prone big men like this. It's not like they suddenly become durable when they go to the NBA.
