    Not only is that such a bad idea but they gave up their lotto pick from last year and a future 1st in the process. How has someone not installed child safety locks in Sacramento?

    Well...at least we get to see some form of reality TV for the NBA. Call it "Crazy Ballers of Sacramento."

    I bet Thompson thinks he's worth Draymond money.

    This is a big loss for the Clips, I hope no one helps them out in getting another center.

    I think the other reason DJ may have left for Dallas is because he wasn't sure if the Clippers wanted to sign him because they thought he was valuable or because they wanted to sign him and trade him later so they wouldn't lose him and receive nothing in return.

    Even DJ probably doesn't believe he's worth 20 million/yr if he's the 3rd man behind CP3 and Biff.

    The one center they could have had is headed to Phoenix. We can trade them Sacre?

    Let's also see how good Griffin and Paul are without Jordan backing them up.

    I'm guessing he'll be fine. the mavs led the league in oops prior to tanking their season in the rondo trade last year, and that's with backups at pg.

    I love how the Sours and the Suns are gutting their teams to get LaMarcus, it's hilarious that one of them will do it for nothing.:devil: And if we somehow get LMA, both their destruction is complete:rofl:

    5 years $145 million for Ludabrow? Is that a misprint? Wow. He's the best big man in basketball but I wasn't aware you can pay someone that much under the current CBA.

    It's using the cap numbers for next summer I believe. One year at the current rate, then the rest at the next level.

    Chandler Parsons on DJ: "He has the chance to be the best center in the NBA for the next 10 years."

    With what offensive game? Parsons makes one hell of a pitch man.
