If the Clippers decide to tank, what are peoples thoughts on trying to get Blake??
Here are a few factors:
- If Clippers tank they will probably go full rebuild and look to bottom out for a few years. This won't match with Blakes timeline and they'd benefit by moving him and getting picks and cap space.
- Getting Blake would put us back in win now mode and enable us to compete throughout Rudys prime (Ive always liked the 2 bigs approached to knocking off GS as apposed to going small).
- Would cost less than people think due to his HUGE contract and his injury history. Maybe Favs, Burks (to tank with), Bradley and our 1st round pick (to build with)
- Would we want his contract or would it cripple us?
- He isnt a true stretch 4 but is a massive upgrade to Favors. Provided similar defense while having a much better offensive game.
- Would he fit with Gobert I guess is the other question...
Thoughts?
The other guy Id like to target is Saric.
