We need a backup PG and a backup SF now. Maybe trade Mobley and Thomas, not sure.

Nice pickup guys....I'm looking forward to watching the nugs D without Camby lol

I like this addition, and I'd still like to see Livingston re-signed as well. I wouldn't be mad if we went into the season with Mobley still at the 2 spot tho.

We just signed Deandre Jordan and Mike Taylor. So we have Davis/Knight/Taylor at the PG now.

As for the Camby deal. Hell yeah!

Don't need scoring. We need defense and rebounding and that's what we just got. We still have cap space leftover to fill out the roster.

Brevin and Davis are injury prone, we need a solid and reliable 2nd string PG.

I like this move.

I'm not mad at the deal at all. It was only for a future 2nd. The RFAs were kind of enticing but weren't all that likely plus we'd have to overpay. Even at his age I'd rather have Camby than Randolph. Welcome to Los Angeles Marcus.

Camby will do his best to accomodate you guys there.
i'm happy to see him go, but it would hav been nicer to get something better in return.

either way, good luck with him guys.

I love it. Great news. The Clippers are gonna be major players in 2010 free agency.

Nice move.

I am glad you guys don't have to consider Randolph that seriously anymore.

Good luck!

Congratulations!! This will be a nice pickup for you and a stupid loss for the Nuggets they may have next to nothing for defense but the Clippers should rejoice.

What a steal, a single second rounder? Wow.

Congrats dudes. I just don't know why you'd go after Camby with Kaman already, unless Kaman can play the 4?

This is an absolute coup for the Clippers --- my son didn't even believe me when I said "for a future second round pick."
I'm so glad to welcome Camby to the team.
We deserved some really good news like this.
Next year's team is beginning to shape up beautifully. A few more issues to address, but already a handful of first rate players.
