You'll get over it. A team of Blake and CP3? Enjoy it if this can come to fruition, because the rest of the world definitely will.

Sportcenter's top 10 plays are gonna be renamed the CP3/Griffin show.

Edit: If you can keep Gordon, then... I'm officially scared.

Nice, finally it's our day now, I've been waiting for this moment for almost 15 years as a Clips fan, nice , just nice , even better than 2004 where we get Andre Miller

Chris Paul
Eric Gordon
Caron Butler
Blake Griffin
DeAndre Jordan

give me a team that we can't beat

Did you see the article? They keep Gordon! This would be a freaking amazing team!

Because unlike the Lakers deal it actually helps them rebuild?

Wow, if they approve this and not the Lakers deal, Stern definately has an an agenda agains the Lakers.

Because this is the team that drafted Michael Olowokandi.

Because this is the team that went 12-70.

Because this is the team that has to deal with Donald Sterling every day.

Because this is the team that plays little brother to the Lakers.

Because this is the team that signed Baron Davis b/c of Brand, only to have Brand leave moments later.

Because it's the CLIPPERS, MAN!!!!!!

At this point, I don't care about the veto BS. If some other team gets CP3, it's not their fault.

I like how the article keeps assuming the Minnesota pick is going to already land them the number 1 pick in the draft.

And how does this look on the Hornets financial wise compare to the Lakers/Hornets deal?

Potentially the best team in the west. Lack of experience might prevent them from beating a team like Dallas in the playoffs, but otherwise, they're as good as any team in the league.

Man, this is too good to be true...

Are Bledsoe and Aminu supposed to be good pieces?

doozyj · Post #19 » by **doozyj** » Mon Dec 12, 2011 7:39 am

Clippers will contend for a championship, that team would be sick. Veteran Superstar PG running that young team will be a nightmare to defend.

WTF. How does this not have Gordon?
