Post#1 » by mkwest » Tue Jul 16, 2013 5:07 pm

Matt Barnes joins Petros and Don MacLean on PMS

- Talked to CP3 about playing on a few different teams together, but glad to return to Clippers.
- Expects JJ to flourish under Doc like Allen did.
- Team needs another big man and they'll be set.
- Excited for the anticipated improvement in defense
- Talked to Doc about 5 or 6 times
- Doing a lot of weightlifting and cardio. Trying to strengthen his body, add a few pounds so that he can play some 4.
- Most of the team stays in LA during the offseason
- Keeps it 100% real with DJ. DJ has to become a better ft shooter and his post moves. Team's success is largely dependent on DJ's growth. Matt looks at DJ like a brother, but he's constantly riding DJ to be the best he can be.

We need two big man for sure. Davies and Hollins should be insurance bigs. Green and Hollins probably be the daily active 11th and 12th men.

We're just going to have to trade for that solid 4 man off the bench in guessing.

Team still has some options for some quality bench vet min 4 and 5 if patient. Maxiell/Mullens, Odom/Mozgov Blair/Pryzbilla

Drew Gooden just got amnestied so I guess he's also an option.
