What Clippers gave up will show how much Doc values his son as a basketball player.

BTW, we may need to wait and see what the trade is Green. Prince and a protected first isn't much for Green. That's a tank move since the first is about a decade away.

Yes, that's my thought exactly...that would be a really strange trade.

They are right up against the hard cap so are going to have to match salary with something.

That could be good news in that it is tough for them to make any moves and if it doesn't work out would be even harder to pull off other moves afterwards.

The conflict of interest going on right now is mindblowing

I don't think it is embarrassing for Austin. He should be a college senior. Kid has talent. He just wasn't ready for NBA. No shame in that.

Wow. Rivers is about worth a second rounder. Young bench guard not under contract? Worth a second rounder.

And then the Clips will probably just let Rivers walk this summer. Next year is gonna be one awkward Thanksgiving.
