    Hell no. Blake Griffin would suck on our team anyway, we wouldn't give him the ball.

    Why settle for Blake Griffin when you can go all out for McGee, 'namsayin?

    Is this thread based on the game tonight?

    Because I didn't see the game, and I'm tempted to make fun of the OP for even bringing this up.

    If they continued to go to Howard he would have had 35+ points tonight...

    Obviously Howard is the better player, but we have Asik and no PF. I'd still want more than just Blake. Maybe Blake and JJ.

    Blake? If he liked playing defense half as much as he likes dunking the Clippers would of a lot more games the last 2 seasons.

    no, Griffin is like a rookie Kenyon Martin, Howard is like a healthy Alonzo Morning, if he can take the game more seriously.

    Why the hell do the Clippers want Dwight? They have DJ who outplayed this time around btw. No thanks from the Clippers.

    Is this a serious question? Do I want someone who likes to play defense and contributes very positively on the offensive end (You don't have to just score, occupying space or commanding floor space is another offensive attribute), or do I want someone who looks shaky on offense, gets lost on plays, and for how much vert he has, isn't the best rebounder, shot blocker and doesn't guard his position well to the point where REggie Evans was in there for him down stretched of games for the Clippers. I will take Dwight today.

    I would. Blake shows he can improve and learn. You see that 3 pointer this game? Howard on the other hand...

    Plus we would get cap space for that other 10 mil.

    What an idiotic thread idea.

    We just signed Howard.

    Do you think they're players on your Xbox?
