Nick Young traded to Clippers/McGee to Denver/Nene to DC

Young had a great game (or great quarter) while Javale stunk it up in their first post-season efforts. My guess is that they'll both even out over the course of a losing series and ultimately disappoint.

I think McGee may get some good stats in a game or two, but facing Bynum or Gasol I don't expect him to be terribly successful.

For the Clippers, I think they will likely pull it out over Memphis. The injury to Caron Butler is a setback, but I think they have good enough rebounders in the post to get away with playing small ball.

Fantastic performance by Nick Young. Player of the game. Clips need to keep riding him while he's hot because his shot can go away very quickly and then you can't have him on the court at all.

Love the way Nick shot the Clips back into the game last night. Those three 3s he hit in a row were huge. I'm happy for Nick. Seems like a good kid that just needed the right situation.

NY had a great 4th quarter, no doubt. But I respectfully disagree with you, Spence. I think the pivotal player in this match-up was Reggie Evans. His tenacity is what sparked that incredible run...

Thank you for Nick

It shouldn't come as a surprise that Nick made shots. We already knew he could shoot.

I am surprised he hasn't been shooting better for them. Maybe it is adjusting to a new system, contract pressure, whatever.

Nick is going to start with CB out.

At SF. This should be a valuable lesson for him. The will be covering Rudy Gay.

So the Clippers still have two X Wizards in their starting line up but now instead of CB and Foye it is Nick and Foye

It's not a lesson for him at all. Young played about 40% of his minutes this year at SF.

No-problem, we usually we usually sell-low on our trades. Thanks for that heavily restricted 2nd rounder you gave us for him.

Very frustrating you can't block individuals using the mobile forum app.

Just venting. Anyone know a way how?

The lesson is him starting against Rudy Gay in the playoffs.

It wasn't really about him at playing at SF.
