Yi would be a cash cow for the Clippers front owner, that is something that would play into this. We all know the Clippers for being cheap, getting Yi would be huge. I think most people got to accept that Sofo is nothing more then an enigma really and that Bucks second rounder would net a valuable player. Think Bill Walker or DJ White or someone that slips. While most people here love Thornton, considering he gave every reason to love him I think the Clippers would be hard pressed to pass this one up.
