    I know man, it's sad! The only hope we have is that Parsons keeps his current attitude and doesn't turn into Budinger after a short period of time and that Morris can become a viable force here. Outside of that, it's draft or trade. No matter what, it looks bleak.

    Did any of you not see this coming?

    I knew full well that we would lose this because Clippers are a playoff team whereas we are nowhere near as good.

    Sigh...

    Love that dunk by Chandler Parsons! Parsons isn't afraid to take on anyone, absolutely fearless...I was a fan of his when played in Florida (my fav college team), this guy is the real deal...SEC player of the year because all round ability, something he is showing now in NBA...2 of the games he has played in this year coming off the bench he has been the leading rebounder for this team...shooting a good percent too! I think it is time he becomes this teams starting SF...

    Scola is shooting too much late in the game and heeds to post up, he gets very cold in the second half shooting jumpers!

    Ah, quote didn't copy video. What I mean is no Drummond or Barnes no matter how bad we get.

    No it would not. Just trade everybody but Lowry and Lee. Trade Martin and Scola for TPEs or expiring contracts and 1st rounders. Well trade anybody over the age of 28.

    This isn't the NFL, they just get a few more pingpong balls. We still have a chance.

    Dalembert needs to start, Twill needs to smile and defense needs A LOT of work. In a game like this it would have been perfect to have Chuck's one on one defense on Blake Griffin but can't dwell on that.

    On top of that I don't know what he hell our offense is and the holes in our defense are painfully obvious. On the flip side, Parson's got a nice smile ;)

    We really have no offensive or defensive system whatsoever. We are down to the most basic isolation pick and roll offense, and the most basic zone defense. Without much size and no superstar talent, theres really not much going for us at this point.

    We really need to unload Martin, Scola and Lowry to fringe playoff teams in the East.

    Hopefully we can drive New York into the cellar and have two top ten picks in this draft.

    Rebuilding around those two picks and Patterson/Morris is a good plan.

    Trade Lowry a top 5 PG that is only 25 years old and entering his prime. I can get with you on trading Martin and Scola and keeping Patterson but not trading Lowry. Also don't care much about a undersized PF that is not athletic enough to play the SF (Morris). Pissed about that pick when Leonard was still on the board.

    Sh!te from what I am seeing game and stat wise Lowry is the second best PG in the NBA. Only others will be consider better by name and rep alone since they have done it longer.

    All the more reason to trade him, while his value is through the roof.

    PG is one of the hardest position to fill, and Lowry is on his way to all-star status, and he's an all-around player. That guy is untouchable in my opinion. Unload the Martins/Scolas... who are good offensively, but don't contribute much else.

    We need more all-around players who are able to contribute at a good level on both ends of the floor.
