For the Clippers - Get depth and reliability...Camby-ZBo playing well makes Kaman expendable.
For the Raptors - Get someone who can play in the open court.
For the Bobcats - Get a true center...opens up the starting PG spot to Augustin.

ClipperEric wrote:We're already in need of a starting SG and a backup 3/4. I love Eric Gordon but he should be coming off the bench. Right now we have only a 3 guard rotation and Jason Hart is #3. Mike Taylor should fill backup PG when he's healthy again.
Now Baron wants out and we're happy to get rid of him. If GS picks him up they'll have too many PG's. In return I'd like to get Jamal Crawford + Azubuike, but I've heard that Azu isn't eligible to be traded to us due to the offer sheet. So how about:
Baron + DeAndre Jordan
for
Jamal Crawford + Turiaf
That fills the 1 and backup 3/4 spots. But we still need a top flight SG and we still have Kaman. I say we send Kaman to Detroit:
Kaman + filler
for
Rip Hamilton + filler
Gives us:
1.Jamal/Taylor
2.Rip/Gordon
3.Thornton/Turiaf
4.Zbo/Turiaf/Skinner
5.Camby/P Davis
That's a 9 or 10 man rotation and our starting 5 & bench are much stronger. Plus we have the ability to score some actual points for a change. We could also do a lot of 3 guard lineups.
