    Agreed. Glad he is now back east. I don't really have a liking for either LA team but if I had to pick one it would obviously be the Clippers. Tye got a great deal and now just need to finish up cleaning house and they are on the right path for a solid rebuild.

    Why do people think Clippers have got weaker here and have no chance to make playoffs? They got two very good starters for a great player. Harris and Bradley are both very, very good.

    If anything this trade makes them better IMO.

    I don't think anyone likes playing with Blake. Clips were wise to get rid of him.

    What exactly is the plan for Pistons? They have been poor recently but their roster was somewhat balanced. It isn't balanced at all anymore, instead it's basically the same as Pelicans before Cousins injury but with much worse personnel (Davis is much better than Griffin, Cousins is much better than Drummond and their backcourts are both shite).

    If they get equally good deals as they did here, they might have just gone through a very nice rebuild.

    They say the team that gets the best player is the winner in the trade, and Clips got Boban, so...

    In previous years this would have created a problem for the All-Star game rosters...

    We should trade Stotts and Meyers for Doc Rivers!
