    The Clippers aren't going to get a new coach this year because of how much contract Dunleavy has left, so either one of two things can happen:

    Either the Clippers have a good season this year and contend/qualify for a playoff spot, and Dunleavy keeps his job (which would be acceptable if they actually have success)....

    Or, the Clippers have another disastrous season, and Sterling has absolutely no choice but to can Dunleavy and hire new blood.


    So really this is the season where something has to give. Either we have success or we get a new coach. Frankly we are at a point where that itself is a win-win scenario.

    David Stern: We have a trade. The Los Angeles Clippers trade the number one overall pick to the San Antonio Spurs for Matt Bonner.

    Seriously, I'm waiting for the Clippers to **** this up.

    I have not read all the posts in this thread but count me in for the "this sucks" category. The playoffs have been mostly boring since the Celtics/Bulls series and although this is a weak draft, I was looking forward to the lottery and seeing what team would get Griffin.

    I am sorry but I don't like the Clippers at all. I don't understand why anyone else would like them either. They are one of the most painful teams to watch despite all that damn talent doing nothing each season.

    The owner of the team does not care about winning, so why should I care about his team? The Clippers are so fortunate to be in L.A. and piggy-backing the Lakers; they are able to survive like cockroaches after a nuclear war.

    There are so many other more deserving teams that could have used the shot in the arm that Griffin would have provided...it's just sad. Some of those teams are nearly dying because of the financial aspects of running a team that is not located in a major-market. Griffin could have done so much for the Kings, Pacers, Grizzlies, Thunder, etc.

    I was really looking forward to watching this kid play next season, but now? Who cares. And what the hell are they going to do with Thug Randolph now? Will Blake come off the bench? F#%k the clippers.

    Blake Griffin is ****ed, unless they make a trade.

    Zach Bo, Kaman, Camby downlow all need 30 minutes each, that leaves nothing for Griffin, one of those is a must trade.

    BD
    EG
    Thornton
    Griffin
    Camby

    Kaman off bench

    trade Zbo for whatever

That being said, very few places are famous for their food like France or Italy or Chinese cuisine. That being said, Spain is an amazing place that I can't wait to go back to visit again.
    Lol, you have no ****ing idea what you're talking about.

    I can see minor similarities, but overall a poor comparison. Beasley is far more athletic and a more natural scorer. I see much more potential defensively with Beasley, and you can't even mention them in the same sentence at the same age.

    People need to realise that Beasley would have averaged 20 and 8 given 35 minutes a night. He is a special offensive talent.

    the Heat organisation are developing him into a winning ball player, a luxury Jamison didnt get at GSW.

    He reminds me of an athletic Z Bo.

    Good comparison, but he doesn't rebound aswell as Z.

    Couldn't he pull a 'Kobe' and refuse to play for the Clippers?

    C: Very solid Chris Kaman

    They would be one of my favorite teams to watch...if the didn't have the aformentioned poison that destroys the potential of everyone around them.

    its a work in progress but the Clippers do have assets. with a little more maneuvering, they could defintely be on the verge of becoming a force in the West.

    Baron Davis
    Eric Gordon
    Zach Randolph
    Chris Kaman
    Al Thornton
    Marcus Camby
    Blake Griffin
    DeAndre Jordan
    Mike Taylor


    i dont know if any team in the league has that many players that are or could be starters. they just have to figure out how it all fits. and they need a better coach.
