    Blake got maxed out last summer by the Clippers and felt like he was there for the long term. This must have hit him like a 2x4 straight to the skull.

    While I don't feel sorry for him at all, moving from LA to Detroit is gonna be really tough for a guy like him. Win or lose, the Clippers are a choice destination for NBA players who want all the trappings at their disposal that come with being wealthy. The added benefit of low expectations is the cherry on top.

    Awesome part about the deal: Clippers @ Pistons on February 9th!! He won't return to LA anymore this season though.

    He would of never signed with Detroit as a free agent. Thats what makes this deal comical. Bundle up blake if you want to hit the clubs.

    i wouldnt knock the pistons. if blake stays healthy for 2 of the next 3 seasons, along with pistons making some good moves, they can be a tier below contenders.

    Tobias, Bradley and 2 Top 6 picks would do the trick.
