I can't wait for that Pelican death lineup of Paul, Gordon, Ariza and Anderson. I hate life.

Right!

And I think you forgot one guy:

Spoiler:

Lol, wow is that Bobby Brown? I didn't even know he was still playing.

Bobby Brown was Houston's #1 towel waver during the 2017 season

Pretty much everyone that locked in Jordan only 2 years ago coz of 'loyalty' is leaving. So good.

It's times like this I rediscover my love for the NBA.

Exactly. Now Deandre gets to suck in LA all by himself. Karma is a bitch.

The biggest reason why Jordan wanted to go to Dallas was to have a team all to himself, so how on earth is this bad karma lol?

DJ fg% will go down but think he wanted a bigger role.

Yea but he walked away from having his own team because his "best friends" convinced him they were all going to finish their careers in LA and we're going to contend for titles. Then within 2 years they both bail on him. So you're right, now he gets his own team and as I said he gets to suck all by himself in LA. Do you not see the irony?

Yeah Harden virtually signed Brown himself after Drew league last year to give his boy a crack at the 15th roster spot.
Not a bad gig getting paid over a half a million to be a team's victory cigar/surrender flag.

I'm also guessing that's why he wasn't one of the filler pieces shipped out Tuesday. Or maybe his paltry salary was just too inconsequential.
Either way, it clearly pays to have superstar friends in the league.

A little off topic but great job by the Pels retaining Jrue. I look at that roster and can't help but think how perfectly a healthy Eric Gordon would fit there now.

For sure. Though I never thought a healthy Eric Gordon existed.

Ryan Anderson off the bench still would have been nice as well.

Don't know where you got that from, that was never the implication

Don't the Celtics own the Clippers 2019 pick from the Doc Rivers trade?

he can take any shot he wants, just like Harden, come on now

They're not gonna tell him "don't shoot midis", CP3 is a superstar, he can shoot it, Ariza can't but he can

What about that? Clippers didn't trade a draft pick

I'm 100% positive they traded a draft pick. Just unsure which year.

The Rockets traded their 2018 first round pick, wouldn't make sense for the Clippers to be trading a draft pick to give another team Chris Paul, lol

Tell that to Deandre.
