Ugh...I was actually hoping Ricky "The Roach" Davis was headed to Europe. Oh well, good signing by the Clips.

Can't wait to see him battling Maggette when the Clips and Warriors play each other.

Clippers are putting together an interesting team with a legit shot at making some noise.

Baron Davis
Cat Mobley
Ricky Davis
Marcus Camby
Chris Kaman

With two young studs off the bench in Thornton and Gordon.

That's a nicely balanced veteran team with a PF/C combo capable of a ton of blocks and rebounds. I like what I see.

Good luck to Ricky, I always liked him.

for the money that the clippers had left, its a win win situation.

exactly how much did he get?

Clippers would be fools to put Davis over Thornton in the lineup

2 years, 4.7 million

Not a bad deal by any means.

He'll be fine in LA.

thats a steal.


they replaced Magette's scoring with just 5 million dollars.

Well, for their sake let's hope he adds to the team that he takes away from it.

The guy has bounced around the NBA for a reason, and is quite possibly my least favorite player in the league. He's had some run-ins with the Blazers in the past, as well as other dumb antics.

A perfect match.

No way they have Ricky "Rebound" Davis start over Thornton especially with Dunleavy at the helm. Him and Eric Gordon will handle scoring duties with the 2nd team.

bwahahaha!!


Baron AND Ricky Davis?!! Dunleavy is in for a treat.

If the Clippers wanted to go with a big lineup, Baron, Ricky, Thornton, Camby, Kamen would be a tall tall lineup

How does Kwame get almost 2x as much as Ricky?

he's 7 feet tall..

I find it funny that they replaced Maggette for so much less..ohhhh those Warriors!! they're so cute!!..

And the Clippers have officially taken themselves out of the 2009 playoff race

Yeah Ricky Davis's production should basically be considered a negative for whatever team he is playing for. Theres a reason he scored so much, he's a ball hog. He is inefficient, he is selfish and has never been on a good team. He is a perennial loser for a reason.

I like this for the Clippers

They add well to their depth, and add another athletic, diverse offensive creator, and can defend better than averagely. Also continuing to add to their size on the wing.

Especially at that price.

Thornton I think will still start though, Davis I'd say is too small as a SF. Shot selection I think there'll be issues at times with Dunleavy, but behavior-wise? Nah, he's been fine more recently.

Clips are building a nice team that I think can really compete for a low playoff spot.
