Everybody kept saying, “Wait until the Clippers are all together and healthy.” Well, here they are. Your Los Angeles Clippers!!! Anybody like this mess, or is the trick to give them another year or two together before they gel.

I see the New York Knicks of recent vintage… Z-bo = Z-bo (one of the NBA’s all-time losers)… Baron = Marbury or Crawford (talented but leadership and effort challenged)… Thornton = Q Richardson (promising young players who don’t get it)… Kaman = Curry (always hurt)… R. Davis = Francis… (the two dumbest guys in basketball) Camby = Lee (good, hard working players teamed with losers)… Mardy = Mardy… Taylor = Robinson (explosive out of control players with big holes in their games)… Dunleavy = Isaiah (desperate teams call for desperate GM’s who double as bad coaches)…

Gordon = Wilson Chandler (good players with good ethic who could help turn things around, but probably won’t)

Yahoo Sports Rumor Blog’s saying the Clippers are looking to relief GM duties from Dunleavy, and trying to get a real GM (Randy Pfund, Jerry West mentioned). This could be a move in the right direction for once. Although, if Dunleavy won’t fix the defense, this team will still sucks.

We have a few problems. One we have new “real” leader on the court. In other words we have no direction and no identity. Before any arguements can be made we need to look deep down at the heart of this team. If you look close enough there is no heart, no core, no rock or whatever you call it.
You have to build from the ground up.

Amazing how you just contradicted yourself. Davis and Fat Zach are paid like stars, better, and then you say they need a decent supporting cast….well support players need to support stars….the whole point is that Davis and Randolph are not now, and never will be “stars”, they are enigmas, talented players who cannot lead. And now we’re maxed out on salary cap because of the twin tubs.

You’re entire argument makes no sense. In order to have a Walton or Bowen, you have to have a star(s) to have them support. Kobe, Pau and Bynum/Odom make Walton what he is (which isn’t much, by the way). A solid core of Baron Davis, Zach Randolph, and Eric Gordon is nothing to sneeze at. Give them some time, and a decent supporting cast, which we already have in Camby, Kaman, Taylor, Novak, and even Fred Jones. All this team needs now is another solid wing, and a voice to harness the talent. PS: Ricky Davis needs to leave.

not me, and since Pippen won 6 I would think you would have had the checkmate on that argument…and come to think of it, not sure that Luke was on any of those championship teams.

My point being is that it isn’t about just putting up numbers…I’d take a Bowen, Walton type over the Zach Randolph’s any day of the week.
