Clippers sign Bobby Simmons to 10-day

[Knightspeed]

Let's see if he can win the most improved player award in only 10 days this time...

I liked Simmons back then, but then the Clips let him go. Hopefully he'll prove he's still got it.

BOBBY SIMMONS SIGNED TO 10-DAY CONTRACT

The Los Angeles Clippers today signed forward Bobby Simmons to a 10-day contract.

Simmons, the 29th GATORADE Call-Up of the 2011-12 season, averaged 13.5 points and 7.6 rebounds in 21 games played for the Reno Bighorns of the NBA Development League this season.

I'd rather have brought Jamario Moon back personally.

Great pickup for you guys, he will help control your hooker population. During Simmon's time in Milwaukee, he was famous for picking up hookers then punching them right in the face and kicking them out of his moving car. He fights the good fight, he'll help keep your corners clean and prostitute free.

You are kidding right? I never heard any reports of this before. Sounds a bit extreme and crazy to me.

It's true. One of his first nights here at about 3 am, a street walker claimed that he picked her up and when it came time for payment, BLAM, right in the face and was thrown from a moving car. Cops were called but he was let off by the MPD because hookers around here are like deer, the population is getting out of control. From that point on whenever there was an abundance of Hookers, the cops throw up the Bobby Simmons sign (ala batman) and he gets to work, punching and throwing from moving cars.

Moon, Gomes, Cook all took/taking up space on the bench. At least Simmons will actually contribute something to the team.
