phoenix will not have a problem this summer on trying to re-up EB. they get MATRIX who will their superstar that will provide the intangibles for the clippers on both ends. diaw will get better given the PT and will be nice together with kaman in the frontcourt, esp now that kaman is turning out to be a very good post player and is also playing like a go to big man the whole season. banks can also shine in this system. if they do this trade early, postseason is a destination for them.
