Damn, that's another team that's better than us now IMO.

C Kaman
E Brand
A Thornton
C Mobley/E Gordon
B Davis

what's more, they have young talent like Gordon that they can deal for a superstar wing as well...

Clippers are finally going to make some noise.

I don't think they're better than us yet, but they could be if Maggette stays there for the MLE.

Maggette goes to Boston if he's smart instead of going back to LA. That's if no other team offers him a better contract.

I like this signing for both LA and Baron. It improves the team greatly and now we have to worry about GS signing Gilbert Arenas. It's time for Donnie and Mark to stop sitting on those hands and add some depth to our bench.

At least the Warrios ain't better than us.

Clippers arent better than us. Theyll find some way to screw it up. I mean, its the Los Angeles Clippers.

Davis
Maggette
Thornton
Brand
Kaman

Wow, that's a scary lineup. Maggette won't stay though, but still. They have Gordon, on paper it's a very good team, vell balanced, defense, offense. I wouldn't say they better than us, there is a lot "if", we have to wait and see if Baron fits in that system, and there is no guarantuee that even Brand will stay with them. If they both stay, i would say their starting lineup is definitely better then ours.

It ain't over until it's over. FA is not over and to judge if any team is better or worse than us is just silly...

Baron + healthy Brand would make LAC jump up in the west
GSW need to make a big move with that TE or all the free money Baron left and Brand turned down...
otherwise they'll be flash-in-the-pan

unless DAL has a big trade brewing for Howard and Stack or Damp, we're in for more of the same this year methinks
