Clippers could have had Dwill/Dwight/Griffin

Orlando would have accepted that Hornets trade for Howard.

Then they would had a great year with Billups at PG this season.

Then no doubt Dwill signs with Clippers this summer.

Dwill/Dwight/Griffin would have dominated for years.


LA Clippers should have hired me as their GM.

Send the Eric Gordon deal to Orlando for Howard.

Dwill would sign as a free agent in the summer.

Gordon for Howard wouldn't even work.

Why? It's the exact same deal for Paul.

Well they should have done this deal before matching DJ. Dwill would have come in a heartbeat.

The Rockets could have also had Olajuwon, Jordan & Drexler, but it didn't happen that way.

For this to even be possible involves a lot of ifs. There's no point in dwelling on a bunch of "what ifs". One player? Possible, but a long-shot. 2 players? That's not realistic.

Dwight went around saying that he didn't even want to be here. He didn't like the pairing with Blake and didn't bother to even put us on the list of possibles. Even if we weren't necessarily Paul's 1st choice, he did strongly consider us.

I like how other team's fans are telling us how the Clippers screwed themselves. We got 66 games starting Dec 25th & I am guessing it won't take us 14 games for our first win this year.

Clippers should've picked traded down in the 1998 draft instead of picking Candi Man, and gotten Vince Carter and Dirk Nowitzki with the picks.
