Lol no. They weren't before, certainly aren't now.


The funny thing is that a few years ago, Paul and Griffin put on the full court press to keep Deandre Jordan there. Now they are both bailing on his ass.

They're both are probably going to be re-signed. So, they'll be back. They just need to stop getting injured.

Unlikely. Griffin was already talking about all the cities that he could be going to. The Clippers were shopping around Jordan all over the place before the draft.

Bottomline is that they are going to blow it all up and Ballmer is going to move them up to Seattle and change their name to the Supersonics. I doubt Los Angeles will even notice.

"THEY MOVED THE LAKERS TO SEATTLE?????? WTF MAN???"

"No, they moved the Clippers."

"The WHO????"

"You know, the other NBA team in LA?"

"I thought that was the women's team?"

Clippers are building a new stadium in Inglewood. So move to Seattle isn't happening for sure.

I think they Clippers were to lose CP3 and Blake for nothing - it'll be devastating for them.

We shall see.... lot of money for both to give up to leave. Even if they do come back the Clips arent truly legit to win a title unless they add another piece. They have shown they cant compete with the Warriors.

Yea...I don't think they can compete with Warriors.

I think Clippers will want to be in similar situation as Lakers next season. Get couple of young players and have max cap space for 3 stars.

Trade DeAndre sometime before next off-season and pray they can do sign and trade for Blake and CP3. They may want CP3 back but if they can land a young player with potential and massive cap space - then it makes sense.

Losing them for nothing will be really tough.

You're serious?

CP3's old ass is an idiot if he forgoes all that cash. He has another two good years possibly. Take the money before you retire. If he goes to SA they ain't beating the superteam Dubs.

I always said they were as well when healthy. Good coaching, solid PG, solid front court, good 6th man. They just could never put together a good playoff run since the injuries.

Clippers were a good regular season team, but never thought of come playoff time the last three years. And now with the roster uncertainty, they may be in a rebuild.

It's gonna be interesting to see what happens. I think both of them want to stay and make the money, but the FO might be looking at it differently. Wonder what's gonna happen with Doc now, is he gonna want to stay on a team that's rebuilding?

What about West? Is this what he signed up for? I think it's a gimme that Griffin and Paul are back, then add one more piece and they'll be rolling.
