Fleecing is the perfect description. I'm waiting on charges to be filed. :)

Thanks for the response.

Perhaps it is a timing issue and not a sign of being totally washed up?


Naw, he looked a step slow defensively and was a liability on the court honestly. Especially because he didn't offer much offensively.

I mean, look at how bad the Lakers needed another point guard and he couldn't stay on with them. They still don't have a legit back up point guard.

Ok. Understood.

I think the Lakers are hoping that Nunn will eventually return

We've already seen Zubac get played off the court in two playoff series (GSW in 19 and Dallas last season)

To be fair, practically half our team got played off the court against Dallas. Carlisle and Luka are just that good.

And the Shamet-Kennard trade continues to bring dividends.

A MAN CAN DREAM!

I dont follow the Spurs so i didnt realize how well he was balling out. His stats look Norm Powell esque, so i figure he's good but not great.


stick to hating on people named Rivers ;-)


That's a given. Doc Rivers was one of the absolute worst GMs ever and a grossly overrated coach. Watching him fail in PHI as a coach, was to me expected. As he was never the type to shoulder the blame and will look to scapegoat others, thus leading to Simmons fiasco.

Austin Rivers is what he is, an entitled player from the start who came in with the wrong attitude and enabled by his father during his whole Clippers stint. I have alot more respect for him now, sticking around in the league on the end of benches without his father's protection and likely having his attitude adjusted to where it needs to be. He's still not a good player and his metrics are terrible as per usual, but he's no longer a Clipper, so im not gonna waste more time bemoaning the River's terrible stint of nepotism ruining the lockerroom.

:D

although some see it this way

Detroit Pistons' Saddiq Bey showing Luke Kennard trade with Clippers was a worthy gamble

Judging by their shirts they're damn glad to be here!

Hoping to see these 2 guys play tomorrow. Powell is the big prize, but I also look forward to see what RoCo can bring on the defensive end. I still remember he played center in Houston after they traded Capella. FYI RoCo is averaging more blocks than Zu this season.

"Yo, what's up, ya'll? It's RoCo here, man. We just touched down. Hey, Clip Nation, we ready! I hope ya'll excited to have us 'cus we're excited to be here, man. Let's get it," Covington said.

There's no way RoCo gets minutes if we have any intention of trading him, right? Portland played Winslow, but Bledsoe got his first DNP of the season due to some bogus injury management. So if only Powell is out there against the Bucks, we'll have a better idea of our next move.

I think its in the Clippers best interest to try to fluff Roco's trade value by giving him some mins and hoping he plays well enough to get teams interested in giving up assets for a rental.

A dream trade is RoCo for either a TPE, that can be banked for next trade deadline, or an expiring deal + protected FRP or 1/2 SRPs.

Give RoCo some run and see what happens.

Coffey's agent more than likely won't have him sign anything until the offseason comes. PG wise we also have Kris Dunn on the G League team getting warmed up

Excited to see how these two look. Although being new to the team I dont expect them to be totally in sync just yet.

What do you guys think. This was supposedly a Woj tweet that he put up but quickly deleted. Might be fake..

Fake tweet, judging by the inconsistent font size.
