Warrior fan here... Not likely to happen because odds are Warriors dont' get number one pick....but...

#1 or #2 pick plus Anthony Randolph for Blake Griffin?

Obviously I think Griffin would be the answer to the Warriors PF issues....

What is up with his health..is he out for the year now?

The Clippers have a good young nucleus of players to build around. Baron Davis is a point guard that will get you 15 points and 8 assists, Eric Gordan is a shooting guard that could flat out shoot. Hes good for 17-20 ppg and 38%+ 3pt fg %. Chris Kaman is a legitimate back to the basket center that will get you 15-18 ppg and 9+ rpg. I project Blake Griffin to be a guy that gets you 12-15 ppg and 10+ rpg. All that is missing here is a small forward. IMO it is highly un likely that the Clippers even have a chance at LeBron or even Joe Johnson for that matter. It is also un likely that the Clippers some how get a top 3 pick. Maybe the Clipps could draft Xavier Henry with the 10th pick and plug him in at small forward, if anything. Another idea would beto package Griffin and te 10th pick, to either move up in the draft, or for a good small forward, then sign one of the free agent power forwards.

@ the idea of even thinking about trading Blake. Blake is the future of this franchise and he'll be a star in this league as long as he's healthy. This team is set for the future with a young core of Blake Griffin, Eric Gordon, and DeAndre Jordan. With a top 10 pick coming in this year's draft, we have a chance to add another piece to grow with our young core. Can you imagine adding John Wall, Evan Turner, Wesley Johnson, or Aminu on this team? Now that would be scary.

Not to mention we still have the T-Wolves pick unprotected coming. That pick can very well be a potential top 3 pick with the way the T-Wolves have been playing the last couple of years up until now. I see so reason why they can't continue to stink. The future of this team is very bright. We just need the right coach to lead this team.

They are not that bad comparing to us

and with a right Center I think they can push the playoffs.

How do you guys feel about a Deng for Kaman trade? I realize Deng's contract is longer, but I think he'd fit perfectly with the Clippers roster. Great mid-range shooter that defends and rebounds.

Baron
Gordon
Deng
Griff
Jordan

If we could sign Amar'e to play Center. I would do that trade. Although Deng's contract is 2 years longer and more expensive, he could be the SF we need.

I like Deng, that'd be a great option i reckon, if we could.

SportsFan215 · Post #988 » by **SportsFan215** » Sat Apr 3, 2010 5:17 pm

Say no to Deng or Amare. We need to focus on guys that are NOT injury prone. That is always our problem; our players are constantly injuries and have to sit out a bunch of games over the season. We need guys that will be our there on the floor and giving it their all EVERY game.

scoobs07 · Post #989 » by **scoobs07** » Mon Apr 5, 2010 11:20 pm

I hope the Clippers luck out in the draft and end up with Turner, Johnson, Henry or Aminu. This way, they have a fall back option at small forward. Then, obviously they would make a pitch to LeBron, Joe Johnson, Bosh, Lee, Stoudamire or maybe Boozer. I dont think they would go for a veteren like Allen or Ginobolli. Maybe they would try and do a sign and trade for Rudy Gay, offering next year's 1st round pick.

Detroit Pistons trade:
SG Rip Hamilton
PF Charlie Villanueva
SF DaJuan Summers

Philadelphia Sixers trade:
C Samuel Dalembert
SF Thaddeus Young
PG Lou Williams

Los Angeles Clippers trade:
PG Baron Davis
C Chris Kaman
SG Eric Gordan

Detroit Pistons recieve:
C Chris Kaman
PG Baron Davis

Philadelphia Sixers recieve:
SG Eric Gordan
PF Charlie Villanueva
SF DaJuan Summers

Los Angeles Clippers recieve:
C Samuel Dalembert
SG Rip Hamilton
SF Thaddeus Young
PG Lou Williams

Why for Pistons:
Pistons upgrade the positions they need at C and PG with Chris Kaman and
B-Diddy. Along with their pick, they can possibly have a lineup of:

Baron Davis
Ben Gordan
Tayshaun Prince
Derrick Favors
Chris Kaman

Why for Sixers:
We get the 2 guard we need in Eric Gordan and that moves Iggy to the 3,
This puts alot of pressure on our front-court though. I like what Charlie
Villanueva brings. He'll help offset the loss of Lou Williams off the bench.
DaJuan's a nice kid to add to the core.

Jrue Holiday
Eric Gordan
Andre Iguodala
Elton Brand
Hassan Whiteside

Why for the Clippers:
Thad had arguably his worst year yet, and yet: He's still averaging 15/5, the
same stats he had last year. So you know, at his very worst he's a 15/5 player.

Samuel Dalembert had a great year, and I think he'd co-exist well with Blake
Griffin. It also helps that he's on the last year of his contract. A perfect
Chris Kaman replacement/veteran to show Deandre Jordan the way.

You get Rip Hamilton, an NBA veteran you know who is going to bring it
everynight. He's still a starting caliber player in this league.

Then finally, there's Lou Williams. Jrue Holiday came alive unexpectedly
and stole the starting job. But that doesn't mean Lou can't handle it. He had
a great october/november and was just warming up. Kid can start and play
in this league. Also, he's proven to take care off the ball and even provide
some rebounding.

Lou Williams
Rip Hamilton
Thaddeus Young
Blake Griffin
Samuel Dalembert.

I like it, I actually think it's dangerous because of Lou and Thad. Those two
are under-rated in Sixers Nation because of Jrue's uprising and Thad's slump.
I think you make out very good in the 3-way deal.

Clippers won't sacrifice Gordon for Williams or Thad. Kaman is better than Dalembert
and hell NO to Rip.

SparksFly87 · Post #993 » by **SparksFly87** » Tue Apr 6, 2010 7:13 pm

Philly proposes
Kaman, B. Davis and Deadre Jordan for Dalembert,Speights, Jrue Holliday, Thaddeus Young and Willie Green

Why Clippers?
Holliday is the youngest point guard-player in the league at 19 years old a Big pointguard ala Baron Davis and is already starting caliber now. Thaddeus Young is a 21 year old smallforward who as allstar potential as a elite scorer. Dalembert is a defensive shotblocking center in the final year of his contract. Speights is a 21 year old stretch powerforward- center with shotblocking skills and bigtime potential. Green is a combo guard who plays D and nice spark off the bench.

This is one of the brightest young teams in the league and they compliment each other perfectly
Dalembert/Speights
Blake
T.Young
Gordan/ Green
J.Holiday

Heres an idea: Lets say the Clippers end up with the 8th pick and Washington ends up with the 4th pick and Wes Johnson is still on the board. The Clippers could offer Griffin and the 8th pick for the 4th and 30th picks. The Clippers do this because they fill their hole at the small forward position with a good NBA ready talent in Wes Johnson. Plus, the Clippers save at least 3 million, which will put the Clippers even further under the cap to pursue a big name free agent. This could particularly come in handy if they strike out on a big name and plan on perhaps signing two good player.

Why do you think that is funny? Let me guess, you think that doesnt go in the Clippers favor right? Our options at small forward are very limited in free agency, so why not trade for one? Then we have a hole at power forward that coulb be filled by Bosh/Stoudamire/Boozer/Camby/Haslem and others. Griffin is going to be a good player. I think he will be a guy that gets 12-15 ppg annd 10-12 rpg. But there are a number of free agents that could do that and then some and Blake hasnt even played a single game yet for the Clippers.

Its funny cause you don't trade a 1st round pick of blakes quality without even giving him a chance to play. It would epic fail. If it was blake for a top 2 pick maybe. 4th pick? No. If we aren't getting Wall or Turner or Cousins, why would we downgrade? For the 30th pick? hell no, picks that low don't pan out that often, and usually just become role players. Trading Blake right now would just be dumb cause his stock is at an all time low due to the injury. Don't equate him with Greg Oden just yet....

likwitdesi · Post #998 » by **likwitdesi** » Fri Apr 9, 2010 6:54 am

If neither the Wiz or the Clips land a top 3 pick, we will end up with a higher pick than you. What about a pick swap + Blatche for Blake Griffin? Both players come with risks. Blatche is immature and Griffin is coming off a knee surgery. However, I think Griffin is a better fit with McGee and Blatche is a better fit with Kaman.

You guys also save 2 mil on the deal, which could make a difference as you pursue FAs this offseason.

A big no to those Philly trades and everything on this page.

So, if you could get the #3 pick (which would get you one of Cousins, Turner, or Wall), as well as a lesser talent wing player but still very cheap, and a late first rounder or an early second rounder, in exchange for your lottery pick and Blake Griffin, you would do it?
