Baron David and Allen Iverson in one team? O M G. If I were Eric Gordon and all young studs there, I would demand a trade or a buyout ASAP

When does Mike Dunleavy learn? I don't like this.

remember when he was almost traded there as a 76er and had a huge fit about it?

how the mighty have fallen.

or how the lowly have risen (to the second-lowest rung of the ladder).

Memphis and the Clippers should just play all 82 of their games against each other. And those games should have their own cable network.

Forget Dunleavy, wtf is wrong with Iverson? First he's in talks with the Griz, now the Clippers? For a guy that is filled with "passion" according to his fanboys after the video posted yesterday, the guy makes moves that completely suggest otherwise. If AI was really as passionate as some say he is, he would easily settle for the MLE or less and be willing to be a 6th or 7th guy off the bench for a chance at a ring. Instead he's in talks with teams that would likely pay him the full MLE, if not more, and where he would be a primary option on a team headed back to the lottery. This dude just does not get it...sad to see such a waste of talent. He'd be the perfect complementary piece for a contending team looking for depth off the bench.

Ew. . .

This COULD work though. AI usually goes to good teams and sinks them. What if he goes to an already bad team?

agreed.
it makes me wish the clippers still had randolph. they'd be soap opera central.

Perfect, I don't think the Clippers ever practice.

poor Blake Griffin

The Clippers are really talented, if they perform to their ability is another story

Davis
Iverson/Gordon
Thornton
Griffin
Camby/Kaman

That's a very strong 7 man rotation if they can be utilized properly. Iverson is still good for 17 + ppg.
