Yup.

Morris, Batum, George, Kawhi, Mann, Covingron, Powell...

Well, lets see if all these guys are Clippers when Kawhi and George come back.
The Clips love their wings

I’m sorry but I’m gonna make this about the Sixers again…

This could be an unintended drawback of Simmons saga in Philly. Maybe Morey is so locked in on Ben situation or he has pissed off other GMs with his demand that maybe he’s sleeping at the switch on stuff he could get the Sixers. Sixers as constructed have a big hole at wing with Thybulle/DG (solid bench guys; neither should start on a team with goals). Powell would have fit this group nicely.

There was a path to cj and Powell as roco for Harris

5 years of Powell is a very long time

They could like Johnson more than others

The second round pick is probably to dump Winslow and stay under the tax lol
Agreed he will be on the books for awhile.

But, his 19 ppg ain't exactly awful.

The Clippers have very few means to acquire players of his caliber because we are so far over the cap and have zero draft picks.

But they have a guy who is younger, cheaper and arguably close to as good as him who they also need to pay this summer anyway.

They were in a tough spot, getting Johnson for him is a nice get.

Imo, This trade doesn’t happen if Simons stayed on his level from last year
Oh no I get Portland’s desire. I personally thought Powell would have had more value than what’s realized in this deal. And you brought up the 5 years (which is fair) so I was arguing from the standpoint of more value. I think he’s a really solid two way player that in the right spot could be one of the best #3 options in the league. Like him a ton. That’s all I was saying.

On paper yes. But I’m not seeing why Portland would want anything to do with Harris.

Yeah this is a hell of a move for them. Kawhi, PG, Powell… 2 way guys leading your squad. Who knows where sports can go with championships but as a fan of basketball that has the prospects of being a fun watch and follow. Playing ball the right way.

Not as much as lemon pepper Lou.

I'd actually like to have him back.

Now this is funny.

I was looking up some info about Lou's dining experience at that Atlanta strip club. Now the club offers LouWill Lemon Pepper BBQ wings.

I bet Harden's jealous. All he could do was get his jersey number retired at a Houston area strip club. Lou has his own damn wings!

Oof.

I say Shroeder.

Fox and Murray may cost too much.

Dinwiddie?
I don't want Fox, would probably cost too much. No thanks on Dinwiddie.

I would be all for adding Schroder if they can also add a 2 or 3 but the luxury tax is an issue

He's a light in the ass version of PJ Tucker.

If he gives you anything on offense, great.

Because, he will try his best to give you everything on defense.

He fits the Clippers playbook.

Switch everything.
great trade by your clips.

helps you guys have maybe the best coach in basketball too. What he has done with the team this year is pretty amazing.

Lakers blew it not getting him instead of Vogel.

That Dinwiddie signing has been real real real bad. lol.

The Wiz just cant get out of their own way. They lucked out so bad in that RW deal.

I said the Lakers should get Dinwiddie for THT and cap flotsam.

Yeah, I love it.

Before I saw the players included, I assumed Kennard or Ibaka was a goner.

Nope.

All the talking heads said the Clippers would be sellers.

I don't think they are done and they could shed salary.

But, they won't dump guys to just save a buck .

They got value back and a open roster spot.

There is zero incentive to tank.
