What's new

Al third most likely player traded before deadline

Not sure how you missed this, but Millsap will not extend with a team. His extension can only be percentage raises from his existing salary, and he's been underpaid by at least $2 million per year for the previous two seasons.

Yeah I meant to say resigns, but the principle remains the same - he probably wouldn't want to come off the bench in LA as that "less athletic hustle guy" who spells Blake.
 
Al right bro, i hope sirkicky does not sue me or try to take my pants off.
1. J smith
2. UR Gay
3. AL
4. D Granger
5. Gortat
6. Bargs
7. B Jennings
8. Bledsoe
9. Cousins
10. Rondo.

You should be fine. Rocye Webb from ESPN even tweeted the list with a link to the Insider article.
 
Millsap will not extend with a team he doesn't start on, or at least all indications appear that way. That would be the main hangup in a LAC deal.


Sometimes players are willing to compromise if they feel they have a legitimate chance at a championship on said team.

That's true, but I think Millsap will go for what will likely be the biggest contract he'll get and then be willing to compromise at the end of that contract provided he hasn't won a championship by then.
 
I would love to get Bledsoe....

If we trade them Pual, we would have to take back Odom to get Bledsoe to make money work!

If we could convince them to take our picks and Watson for Bledsoe that would be awesome!!
 
Think about this more immediately. If the Clips had Millsap in there instead of ****ing Turiaf, then they'd seriously be real contenders. When an org has the opportunity that get that extra oomph, then the good ones take it and worry about the long-term later. They're going to lose Bledsoe anyway, so if they can use him to get over the top, then they should seriously consider it.

(yes, I know Turiaf plays C. They'd put Odom at C and Millsap at 4. They've shown willingness to go small this year. And, they know the Heat will go small.)

Yes, but the deal could be made with the understanding that Odom will be bought out and return to the Clips.

i am just not high on bledsoe. i feel like he would play basically the same role burks would play with more playing time. i dont feel he is a need. if we are going for a PG we need one that can pass the ball and likes to pass it. i think bledsoe is just burks with more playing time and less productive jump shot.
 
plus in the last 5 games he has only posted 1 3 pointer. your pg needs to be able to shoot, thats one reasomn we struggle now. ours really cant they arent a threat so they just have to gaurd the drive. idk though maybe yall see something i dont.
 
His defense is stellar exactly what you need in this Western conference with dominate PGs!!

but outside the paint his FG% plumits... he only offers 2.7 APG even when paul is out with an enflamed knee and he is responsible for being the soul pg he hasnt broken 6 in a game, and that clippers teams is built for pick an role and lobs. i just dont feel he is a jazz style player. if he was a SG then id a agreee, but i think he is just a smaller burks with a poor shot.

Correct me please if wrong. But I thought this could no longer be done. It was the reason Fisher signed somewhere besides LA when he was traded last year. Or at least that is what I thought.
