Nate Robinson to the clippers, good fit?

Will this be a good idea?
The Clips traded away Bledsoe, Bullock, 2 firsts and *1* second since getting Doc and they have Redick, Hawes and Doc's kid to show for it.

But they are still thin in the backup PG position, with Rivers being incredibly raw and young, adding Nate who is a proven scorer/energy guy who also can dish out assists with some veteran leadership will help this LA squad. (We have seen how he helped a derrick-less Bulls squad but up a fight against Miami a few years ago).

not an awful fit. it'll be fun to see him and crawford in the backcourt together.

the hole is at small forward though, and nate robinson does nothing to address it. the rivers signing was a waste since they already have reddick and crawford, virtual clones. now nate robinson, a hell of a player but another guy sub 6'4.

you cannot play reddick or rivers or crawford or farmar at the small forward in the playoffs. the next guys down the line capable of playing the 3 is hedo turkoglu. not particularly inspiring.

all that said its a good signing because you'd rather him be on your team than somebody else's.

he's been the shooting the three poorly this year, if he gets that figured out he could help.

Nate is still in the league? :biggums:

They already have Crawford, who is essentially a taller, better Nate Robinson.


Clippers need to worry about getting a defensive big to back up Jordan.
