didnt dwight say he wanted to be the focal point of an offense? he was already quoted this past season about not liking the pick and roll ( :rolleyes ). HOU has the same problem LAL does in that sense, dwight wants to be the guy but theres still kobe/already harden and both teams like to run the PnR. he can go to charlotte and be the focus of the offense there.

full disclosure, im a laker fan. he wants to be the #1 guy on a winning team? ok, develop a post game. if he was really complaining about laker fans being spoiled, well guilty as charged. hes making all these demands and cant back up his talk.








...that said, yes i want him back. without him itll be dark ages after next year. :smh: at me.

lol lakers dark ages never last very long man...

as for dwight saying he wants to be the focal point on the offense and wants to be the number 1 guy blah blah blah blah

chris bosh on his impending free agency once said he didnt want to go to a team where he was the number two guy. he wanted to be the number 1 guy on a team that won it all.

yea we saw how that ended.

i honestly think dwight is gone though

laker fans who want him gone are stupid.

the guy was coming back from a serious injury and also hurt his shoulder.

watch him go back to beast mode this coming season

The best thing about dwight if he comes back besides the player coming back. antoni will get the axe.

and if you dont think the lakers will give him the axe if dwight ask them to then you are kidding yourself.
 
someones mad
Not really. It's more that people like to criticize the clippers and single them out more so than most other teams. Especially griffin Jordan and now Paul is getting crap for being loyal to the clippers

Griffin hasnt improved, im not going at Paul for being loyal. Its a good team for him but when they have gone the last 2 seasons is exactly where they are gonna go for the next 5. sad but true. Jordan sucks, Griffin isnt any better and wont get any better. who else is left? they will be a 2nd round team at best.

been saying, Clips aint a contender and they wont be til they add another solid big man to play with Griffin. til then... yea
 
Zyzz has to root for the Pistons and live in Detroit. I'd wanna kill myself oo :lol:

Cut him some slack, that's my dude.

Carry on Zyzz. What else is on your mind?

Exactly. And, of course, if CP left, it would be like, "ha, ha same old Clippers." So, the team can't win with some people.

And, personally, I'm going to wait to see what the roster actually looks like for 2013-2014 before I start making predictions about how far they can go, especially since they now have one of the best coaches in the league.
 
I'm not mad but I bet the teams who don't have Doc as a HC and are forced to wait five years to make Paul an offer are :lol:

We not even done making roster improvements. Locking up CP3 was a priority tho. :smokin

i dont mind, we were top of the eastern conference for a decade. not many people can say that about their teams.

we got a championship outta it and were minutes away from a second. we will be back there in the near future. we got some nice pieces, its all about adding the right pieces soon.
 
Paul being loyal? Where else was he going to get the same money?

Griffin's game is non existent outside of 10 feet and DeAndre is who he is. Them taking that next step is going to hinge on those two make dramatic leaps in their game.
 
Doc coaching and CP3 returning is enough for me to start believing in the clippers. The difference between VDN and Doc is night and day. He commands a level of respect that Del Negro couldn't and his defensive schemes and lineups are far better.

And even though I hate how he flops and ******* to the refs, CP3 was the 3rd best player in the league after Bron and KD. We saw what Doc was able to do with Rondo if you don't think Paul is going to be as good as he's ever been with him than idk.

Again you can point to almost every other team in the west and poke holes through their roster and or coaching. But if people want to continue to harp on the clippers go right ahead
 
-- Thunder G Kevin Martin expected to get interest from OKC, Milwaukee, New Orleans, Minnesota, Dallas and Detroit, source tells Y! Sports.

-- Pelicans strongly interested in signing free agent forward Andre Iguodala to join old Sixers teammate Jrue Holiday, sources tell Y! Sports.

-- Denver GM Tim Connelly and coach Brian Shaw will meet with free agent Andre Iguodala in Los Angeles on Monday, sources tell Y!

-- Memphis will meet with free agent guard Tony Allen shortly after start of free agency, sources tell Y! Pacers, Bucks, Knicks in pursuit.

-- Doc Rivers would love to reunite with Tony Allen with Clippers, but unclear how competitive Clips will be with an offer, sources tell Y!

-- Golden State contingent including owner Joe Lacob, GM Bob Myers and Mark Jackson will meet w/ Dwight Howard in LA next week, sources tell Y!
 
Iggy on the pelicans would be nice on paper. Not sure how it would all look in reality but that should be enough to compete for the playoffs
 
What would be the best fit for Josh Smith?

GSW with Bogut and Lee?

OKC next to Ibaka?

Detroit with Drummond and Monroe?
 
#Rockets have waived Aaron Brooks and Carlos Delfino. Team is doing diligence to clear cap space for goal of landing Dwight Howard. #NBA

Love Delfino's game...he'd be a good fit on a number of teams.
 
Jrue
Eric Gordon
Iguodala
Anthony Davis
Lopez

That team crack the 8th seed in the west?
