Official Offseason News and Rumors

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Not sure what Doc is doing at this point, I don't have a ton of confidence in the guy as a GM and I find him to be a slightly above average coach at best. I think the Clippers need to trade Jordan while he is still highly regarded. IMO, he isn't worth his big contract but he is very attractive to other teams so the Clips can fill the needs you are talking about by trading Jordan. What's your opinion of Jordan???

I absolutely DESPISED him, until this Season.

But, Doc has made me a believer.

Jordan bought in to Doc's system and improved across the board.

Double digit scoring, almost 3 blocks per game and led the NBA in boards and he's only 25.

As far as the money goes, bigs are overpaid. We have to live with that.

He doesn' t have the same impact as a guy like Noah. But, his numbers are better than Hibbert's, Bogut's and Chandler's and all 3 of those guys make more.

If they trade him, they are insane.

The only reason to consider it, is if he intends to walk in the offseason.

Either way, Blake gets seriously exposed and so does Spencer Hawes.

Those 3 guys should compliment each other well because they have very different skill sets.

Hawes is a stretch 4/5 with good rebounding. But, Zero defense.

Blake attacks the rack, is developing a consistent jumper, boards okay, blocks zero shots, plays zero defense.

Jordan cleans the boards, blocks shots, protects the rim. Range only extends to the length of his arm because he can't do more than dunk.

We need all 3.

I wish they would trade Crawford but I do like Reddick even though his contract is a bit high.

I'd rather trade Reddick, than Crawford.

He gets buckets when everyone else is cold.

He is the only guy, outside of CP3, that can get him own shot at will.

No way do you trade him.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Could Reddick and Crawford be on their way out of town?

Could be, OT.

One is expendable.

I like JJ. He was money at the beginning of the Season, until he fell to the Clipper curse.

I pray it's not Crawford.

But, he has been jawing about his contract this Summer.


So, .

Yeah, you would think one has to go.

The Hawes pickup was great for the Clippers.

 

[OutlawImmortal]

Hard to find the athleticism Jordan brings to the C position.

When you remember that for all his athleticism, Blake is severely lacking in defensive prowess, it makes Jordan all the more essential.

Blake is my favorite player in the NBA * along with Aldridge *.

But, I find it inexplicable, that a guy who can jump out of the gym, even with his T-Rex short arms, can't manage to block at least 1 shot per game .

Yep, you know he was the guy I wanted most last Season.

Better late than never .

If Jordan can keep developing under Doc then I would have to agree with you. I'm still not sold on the guy yet because he is mediocre on the offensive end and his defense isn't exceptional even with the blocked shots. Honestly, Bogut (if healthy), Hibbert, and Chandler are better options than Jordan.

Nah, Crawford can't play defense, and he is way too streaky, you never know what you are going to get with him, too unpredictable.

Healthy, younger Bogut and Tyson?

But, those days are gone for both.

This is how I feel everytime I see Hibbert take the court .

No way I'd take that mental midget over Jordan.

With all that being said, hopefully we take a step forward this year.

If Love goes to the Warriors?

The Party is over

LOL….Hibbert could use some mentoring from Doc, he can be very frustrating indeed. Under the right coach, Hibbert could be a beast. Let's hope Jordan can continue to grow under Doc especially his FT %.


While Love would be a great pickup, the Warriors are still only one Curry ankle sprain away from being mediocre again and Kerr is really an unproved commodity too.

So are many teams. Curry had no problems last year

He has glass ankles, it's only a matter of time.

Like I said ankles were fine last year

The law of averages will catch up with him this year unfortunately.

Damn didn't know it was that many times... But it's a sprain ankle. Most common injury and it takes few weeks to a month to heal. So it's not that bad. It's not like love would be joining the bulls and have to play mr.glassman rose. Most experts got the bulls as the top team in the east now. Once rose goes down we all know it's over for the bulls..

 

[purguy12]

Great pick up for the Bulls. Aaron Brooks not a bad back up.

 

[purguy12]

Thibs will have a Jumbo Line up.
C- Noah at 6'11
PF- Gasol 7'
SF- Mirotic 6'10
SG- Butler or Snell at 6'7
PG Rose 6'3

Bulls have a lot of Depth. Also with Brooks Rose can play some SG now.
