Nice PR job by Woj... LOL.. "they are not interested in tanking" my ***.

You've just traded Blake Griffin AND are looking to trade DeAndre and Lou Williams then YOU ARE ALREADY TANKING.




 
LOL .. want any more proof Jerry West is gutting the team and is tanking?


He'd just traded Blake to Detroit for draft picks and scraps.

Well one way to do it is to start wide by hitting some mid first round picks and once you got that value you just bottom out 2 seasons for high lottery talent while developing the promising youth and selling the fan base on the necessity to utilize that opportunity. I'm not saying it's a smart thing to do or the smartest thing to do, but for financial or ethical reasons Ballmer may just decide to tank differently than the OKC/76ers blueprint suggests. Other teams have tried to copy the full tank but suffered bad luck in the lottery and/or drafted badly when they couldn't select obvious stars (Magic, Kings, Hornets, Suns...)
 
RIP to Rasual Butler... Died in a car crash.. He had a glorious resurgence to the league, beating his way thru the d-league not too long ago..

His wife was with him and she also died. Sad
 
Can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm gonna watch the Detroit game today. Probably the first time in 10+ years ever since their Championship run.

D-E-T-R-O-I-T BASKETBALLLLLLLL
 
Despite that, a lot of excitement in the stadium, crowd oohing and ahhing everytime Blake touches the ball and do something with it.
