    Good. I'm all for getting any of the D-Fenders up here. See if there's anything there worth investing in going forward. I'm especially curious about Jabari Brown, he's putting up solid numbers.

    Nice idea, bring in another guard who can take some minutes away from tank-killers like Lin and Ellington (although I do like Wayne). It's worth it to lose games and find out if we have a diamond in the rough on our D-League squad.

    Finally. Tell Byron to sit the veterans and play the new guys.

    Jabari Brown has been lights out on the defenders this year. He deserves a call up.

    I agree that this is a good idea to try and mine for gold and gives the options to take minutes away from Lin and Ellington etc when they are in God mode.

    Does anybody else here feel that as fans we should have some type of hardship exception for putting up with this season?

    Hopefully these years are a blip on our franchises' history and the Clippers making playoffs will be a blip on theirs and they can go back to bottom dwelling.

    The only hardship exception I want and need is a top 5 pick. If we screw that up, then I will be very bummed.

    I'd like to see Blue, but Brown might be okay (he wasn't in preseason).

    I hope we bring up a PG and bench Lin, dude is almost winning us games right now, and in fact has already helped win a few.

    If they get him watch Byron stick him on the bench and give the minutes to vets.

    We should try picking up anyone who has potential - and trying them out while there are still games to be played. We have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

    The D-Fenders have a few kids who could use a call up. Why are they not here already?
