Chauncey went back to the Pistons and Ronny is on the verge of signing with the T-Wolves. Any word on Lamar Scrodom?

 

[certifiedflyboi23]

CP, Barnes, Dudley, Blake and DJ as the starting line?

 

[mjshoefanatic]

I got CP, Redick, Barnes, BG & DJ

key reserves:
Collison, Crawford/Green, Dudley, Odom?, Hollins

rooks
Bullock, Davies

 

[certifiedflyboi23]

We're getting Jamison right?

Glad to hear that Doc doesn't think we're done making moves. I like the team that we've already put together, but agree with everyone else that we need another, tough big guy. I'm predicting we're going to have that before the season starts, one way or another.

Thank GOD!

Who's going to games/viewing parties this year?

He's undecided at the moment

Bullock, Davies

And I think Dudley starts. I like barnes off of the bench as a spark.

I think Dudley starts over Barnes. I like Barnes off the bench as a spark/mini goon. Bullock is gonna be nice. See him taking green's minutes.

 

[certifiedflyboi23]

The reason I say Barnes start instead of Redick is because he has better defense than Redick. We definitely don't want CP or Redick on the floor together trying to guarding the opponent's PG

or maybe we'll run zone and be ok..

Redick is a great defender. And I can't see Barnes at the 2.

 

[certifiedflyboi23]

I always thought Barnes was a good defender

He is. Marathon is just saying Reddick is good too. I like Barnes coming off the bench as the SF. He may end up playing with Dudley in stretches, depending on the match-ups. But he's really valuable for his energy off the bench.

Odom Weighing Overtures From Lakers, Clippers
Jul 11, 2013 2:25 PM EDT

Lamar Odom is weighing whether to sign with the Lakers or Clippers on a one-year, $1.4 million contract.

Odom, 33, has not drawn interest from many teams.

[certifiedflyboi23]

You already know he's going back to the Lakers..

 

[mjshoefanatic]

Then why hasn't he done that already

 

[certifiedflyboi23]

Watch he go to the Lakers and put up 15 and 8.

 

[mjshoefanatic]

IMO I think he'd flourish under Doc in a reserve role but if he prefers a coaching downgrade and lackluster roster then so be it.

I guess. Doesn't seem like a hard decision to me, if the money is equal from both teams. But I guess if he thinks he can recapture some old magic by putting on purple and gold, good luck to him. We'll be fine either way.

Take a brief look at the history of the #Clippers uniform. READ » http://on.nba.com/1aeTidK

Just for fun. I'm a fan of the old San Diego unis. I hope we get some San Diego throwbacks again soon.

 

[certifiedflyboi23]

I like the '87 to '89 uniforms.

I don't know about stacked. We're small upfront, and lack speed in the 2 and 3 position, but ill def be at games this season

IF LO is smart, he'll resign with us. They did you dirty in Laker land, and they're gonna be scrapping to make the playoffs, and if they do, it'll be another first round bye, and than what, your out LO. Don't do it, come back to the Clips.

@ the possibility of MWP & Barnes being on the same team.

Royal Rumble. I'd love to bring Artest on, though.
