2014 NBA Off-Season; Paul George suffers a double-compund-fracture, likely out for season. Speedy re

[ballinsam23]

I was halfway trolling with that.

But to put it into a basketball perspective, in the West you need a dominant scorer to win. With the Clips its been same old **** every year. I know Blake is younger and a better overall player, but only 1 (arguably 2) players in the league are better offensive players than Melo.

Cp3 and Melo can make it happen. This is if the Clips are in "win now" mode which I think they are.

Its MUCH harder to stop Cp3 and Melo than Cp3 and Blake imo.

clips should pick up zbo so quake wont be scurred come playoffs

 

[big j 33]

The Clippers were the #1 offense in the NBA last year... but they need a dominant scorer?

Blake will be their dominant scorer.

 

[offset pow clow]

Melo isn't a ball stopper.

But that trade was just so damn stupid I think homie is trolling Blake hasn't even hit his prime yet and Melo's 30. Why in the world would the Clippers say yes to that trade as if bringing melo would make them better than what they are with blake.

Blakes in his prime

ZBO is a shell of himself. He would love to be Quakes back up right now

It was Miami, Spurs, Clips. You really believe Blake can be the go2 guy on offense?

I just think Blake needs to be your #3 option to win it all. You can win with Melo as your #2.

 

[ballinsam23]

double

Cp3 cant be your #1 either, melo just needs to play with someone else that can score consistently, you cant win with cp3 or blake taking the most shots on the team, they arent dominant scoring threats consistently, melos up their with kobe kd & bron as the only dominant scorers in the game

 

[bronconation24]

I guess fisher forgot to wear all his rings when he went to talk to melo. Hahahahaha Phil Jackson and his moronic strategy's.

 

[hand2handking]

moronic strategy's.

 

[Bert.]

Why would the clips trade Quake for ball stopping Melo? Wtf

Melo isn't a ball stopper.

Blake is in his prime..

[Vincent Van Goat]

Melo isn't a ball stopper.

Joakin just hit 30 if I'm not mistaken

He just really peeked/hit his potential
Imo

So yea age isn't much if your performing, it just means there's A ticking clock

i meant outside of injury issues

 

[certifiedflyboi23]

i meant outside of injury issues

Ok well tell that to Len Bias.

 

[pmatic]

I say 24-29 would be most players' primes, 27 usually being a player's peak.

or drug issues/being dead issues

i look at the peak as being in their prime

like to me you cant be in your prime for 5 years

like you can peak early, and still hit your prime later

peaking is like the best physical condition/athleticism

priming is like skills/mentality/talent

 

[shoeking2101]

Blake will be their dominant scorer.

Agreed

He isn't

 

[certifiedflyboi23]

How is Melo not a ball stopper?

 

[addict4sneakers]

Anyone in the top 5 in scoring is essentially a ball stopper. It's not just melo

 

[Bert.]
