    With this management it wouldn't surprise me to see them trade the picks for a nearly 30 year old player.

    The quick fix rout should not be an option. This team is nowhere close to being a title contender.

    I would hate to be a Bobcats fan, i just saw some on another forum wanting to trade Tyrus Thomas for BOTH of our picks, lol.

    Nearly 30? Rondo is 26, he'd be a great get.

    Gotta get a top 10 player in the league. These picks won't have much of an impact. Building through the draft outside the top 3 doesn't work.

    I'd rather get a SG or SF who can score lights out to draw Deron Williams into signing with us. I bet he's seriously considering us. With LA and our assets, we look much better to be in a position to win than other teams being discussed.

    I agree with this for Rondo. But no way would I trade both picks for Curry. With our luck and his fragile body..........no way.

    That wouldn't be enough for Rondo.

    would Drummond being a DeAndre Jordan be good enough for us? He sounds really similar.

    Am I right in saying that the Clippers traded the picks that turned out to be #1 overall in the past two drafts?

    No. Jordan is not good at much. Drummond is at least supposed to be a decent defender

    Just as long as they don't trade it for Iggy.

    I'm nervous that's just what they might do.

    Even with Iggy, the guy is 28. I don't necessarily want him, but it would be more exciting then drafting a guy who ends up being a bust.

    When you factor in his age, contract and the new CBA there is no way you should even consider him as an option.

    No fucking way.

    Chad Ford said he could be the next Bynum(hopefully without the crazy) in the right system, but who knows, really.
