I know some of you are acting as if losing Bullock is a huge loss but this is the same kid who couldn't beat out the likes of a struggling Dudley and Matt Barnes right? Or is it for some other reason?

Bullck isn't gonna get any playing time with us either because we have Tucker, Marcus, Warren all ahead of him at SF and then Dragic, Green and Goodwin all ahead of him at SG.


Bullock never got a chance bc doc doesn't play youth. I think he can be an ok 3 and D type player though.

Coach Doc has his work cut out for him in order to bail out GM Doc.

Not even Pop could bail out GM Doc at this point. That's why Doc needs to be flat-out fired, not just told to step away from the front office. He's done an incredible amount of damage to this franchise as the GM and since his coaching isn't going to be enough to fix it, there's no point in having him around at all.

And it's already blowing up in our faces, like every single other move Doc has made:

No way Nate comes to this first-round exit waiting to happen when he can play with LeBron. Austin Rivers is going to be our backup point guard, LMAOOOO. Might as well have kept Farmar.

No, he isn't that good. He didn't get a lot of playing time, but he also didn't really deserve it.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Usually I groan when I read one of your depressing ass posts but this one made me LOL. It looks like a semi-tank move what Doc just did. I'm not even sure he won't max him out, that's my big thing. He could, right? Even if he gets fired for it that's still 80 mil to his son. He's gotta be at least thinking about it.

Man, for someone who claims to hate all of my posts and has me on ignore, you sure haven't stopped whining about me or reading my posts. Believe it or not, your opinions are not the be all, end all and not everyone is going to be an apologist for the organization.

At the end of the day, we all want the same thing: for the Clippers to win. If I didn't want that, I wouldn't be wasting my time on here, that's for sure.

i peep them from time to time.
like now.

and you piss off enough people here that theyre always quoting you and complaining so I see them through that as well.


you're more than not an apologist.
you're a hater…more than likely a Warrior fan and you haven't said one positive thing about theClippers since you've been posting here.

Dudley tweeted Bullock and said "congrats on the trade!! This will be the best thing for your career!!"

Nope, it's really just you and maybe one or two other people who follow me around and whine about all of my posts. Keep projecting, though.

The Clippers haven't done one positive thing since I've been posting here. It's been a largely disappointing season, and Doc has made horrible moves. If we were looking impressive on the court and making smart moves off the court, there'd be nothing to complain about. It's just not in my personality to be an apologist or an excuse-maker, I mostly just tell it like it is. If people don't like it, tough crap. If everybody had the same opinions, it'd be boring.

Your guess is pretty much as good as anyone elses. Doc refused to give Bullock any playing time other than for a two week stretch at the end of Dec/Jan, along with a quick hook.

Nobody really knows what we have in Bullock, but its safe to say Doc didnt trust him and Bullock played scared.
Plus, why would I want to go to the NBA? Duke players suck in the pros.

So the trade in totality was Bullock, CDR, and a 2nd round pick for Rivers. Then we cut farmar

That means clippers have 13 players including Jones.

Still holding out hope that something happens.

I took it more like Dudley loved his time in Phoenix and hes letting Bullock know that is where his career took off.

i'm just hoping that doc is doing some kind of jimmy johnson/dallas cowboys type thing where he has a master plan that all comes together.

i mean, what else can you do at this point but pray there's any other reason for his lunacy?

Farmar played under Blatt during the lockout. Cavs need a backup PG...

nah. I mean anything positive…a funny story about attending a Clipper game. A funny story about how you became a fan. A story about the Clipper players or teams you loved in the past. Hell, you're in EVERY thread in which we lose going on and on. When we get a win, where are you? Nowhere to be found. You avoid those game threads like the plague.

FYI…there's other people here who say negative stuff all the time…LACt is very critical at times. But unlike you, he has found time to comment positive things this season…a good win….a good performance etc. etc. YOU NEVER DO THOSE THINGS! This is why you're the only negative poster that people bother….even Lindecision who says negative **** all the time called you out.


You want Paul traded.
You hate DJ.
You want Doc fired.
and it's always done with an LMMMMAAAOOO behind it. Nobody ever reads your **** and perceives an actual concern for our team…a genuine disdain that comes from a team making bad moves. You're a damn hater and all you do is hate on the damn team and it's annoying.

Yes, I blocked you on here and I say about 85% of ur **** I don't read….and it's made my life a lot easier around here.
