Free Aminu

Dude has been sick since he's started! I had no idea he could shoot the rock that well, how long do you think he can keep getting minutes? Seems to have a played a ton recently, but I wish he got more burn...

While our team record sucks terribly, I'm going to go out on a limb and hand it to VDN. It's too soon to tell how our young guys are developing, but if these first few games are any indication, he does have a knack for getting the most out of his young players. And I'm very pleased with Aminu's contributions thus so far.

Aminu>Gomes and Butler

Hope the kid gets more chances to prove his worth as the season progresses.

For the present future Aminu will get a lot of playing time should help with his development
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

He looked horrible in summer league and preseason and i had a feeling he was a huge bust but hes definitely surprised me, and looks very much improved. I really hope he continues to start, i'd rather we lose every game with our young guys playing than to scrap out occasional wins with our older vets. Its pretty much over this season, we need to develop these guys now and giving them consistent/high minutes will help tremendously.

Yea, i questioned the Clippers drafting him while Paul George and Gordon Hayward were still available. I like how he has really worked on his game. I see a Tim Thomas/Darius Miles hybrid of him.

I'd prefer him to be more of a Darius Miles prototype w/ range than anything close to TT :lol:

Aminu needs about 35mpg. He's been our best 3pt shooter. And he's improved every game.
