Yeah Doc, I'm sure no one would have wanted CP3, BLAKE, and DeAndre before you showed up.
Media won't call him out though because he's an expert at playing them.

THANK YOU Dermott McHeshi
I'm interested in what the Clippers will do. Their bench is just complete shit. It's hilariously bad. CP3 has proven himself to be a choker in the playoffs and not be good enough to carry a team (even with Blake).
Looking at their salary cap stuff (http://www.spotrac.com/nba/los-angeles-clippers/yearly/cap/)... the Hawes contract = LOL (as is Redick's to a degree). They're probably over next year so it's keep DeAndre or not get another max player. They don't have their 2015 or 2017 1st rounders (which means they can't even trade 16 or 18) so they can't just dump off salary easily. I guess their best plan of attack is keep DJ/CP3/Blake and hope to get some vets at the minimum or hope the salary cap significantly increases? Maybe someone would take Barnes/Crawford off their hands but then they have even less depth?
It just seems like at this point unless they can do a sign/trade with Jordan and get some assets back then spin those assets with shitty contracts to clear space/sign players, there aren't many plays for them.

The Moose are your one stop shop for shedding contracts. Look at dat dead money.

If Doc remains GM for a couple more years, I'd love to see the 76ers get an unprotected 1st in 2020 or something along those lines a la the Dragic trade between Phoenix and Miami. That could be a ridiculously juicy asset by then, and Rivers is shortsighted enough to do something like that to dump money.
Mmack loves the golden girls. When he wakes up befor me he goes and turns it on whatever channel it's on in the morning. I walk out to find him drawing at his art table with Blanche Dorothy rose and Sophia in the background dealing with some new post menopausal crisis.
The theme song of the Warriors!

Hoping someone leapfrogs Miami and Philly gets the #11 pick.

@doh i can't agree with Paul taking the blame or being labeled a choker when his teammates didn't help him at all. Especially after he hit the game winner against the Spurs in game 7 overtime and his hammy probably wasn't 100% in this series.
The clips lost more so because griffin got worn out, Crawford went cold, redick was a turnover machine and Barnes completely disappeared (goose egg in game 7).
Terrence jones, josh smith, Ariza, and brewer simply outplayed the clips role players in the last 3 games.
I actually think this is the easiest finals matchup for the Warriors in the west. I can't see Smith, brewer, Ariza and jones out scoring the Warriors role players and I don't know how the rockets are going to defend curry and Klay.
dubs in 6 just because I respect harden and Dwight.

Mudiay or Russell is prolly the pick there
Doh is one of those fans that says shit like that lol. There are a million reasons why it had nothing to do with paul that they lost. They shouldnt have even been in the second round, paul made that happen.
If anything paul makes his teams look too good before the playoffs, so the HOTTER THAN HOTTEST TAKES blame him.

Let's take a look at the 2016 draft:
Moose - still own the rights to their 1st rounder
LLLLLLAkers - only top 3 protected (not finishing in the bottom 3)
Miami - only top 10 protected (could happen again)
Thudner - only top 15 protected (injuries not going to bite them in the ass again next year)
Good chance the Moose end up with 4 1st round picks in the 2016 Draft.
Suck for some unknown incoming freshman at Kentucky.

I'll bet Hinkie gets a #1 from someone this draft looking to dump salary.
I don't think Okafor is going to dramatically improve LA next year. He doesn't protect the rim and can't shoot outside five feet. Him and Randle will be the worst defensive front court in the NBA.

Still not gonna finish in bottom 3. Silver is not going to rig two lotteries for them.

Agree. I see LAL being somewhere in the 4-6 range in terms of worst records next season, which means there's a great chance the 76ers get their pick.
IMO the Lakers will finish with a worse record than Philly next season.

His defense has been solid at least. Good thing Livingston is playing out of his mind.

Yup. Can't fucking stand his game.
