    In the judge a trade in hindsight analysis, Vucevic alone makes it much more ban a bad haul. Bynum didn't even play. Vucevic had a higher PER than AI. Plus they got Afflalo (yes yes way overhyped as the key piece of the deal but at least a decent role player) and draft picks. AND the chance to suck, which was important for them. Add Oladipo, and a high pick next year... And it's not a bad haul.

    Of course, they didn't know Vucevic would be what he is, and you'd have to be on board with the purposely suck approach.

    Bledsoe is pretty overrated. I'll take Afflalo

    The clippers are so stupid!! This can't be their best offer for Bledsoe!

    I hope it happens! I think Bledsoe can be a good starting PG and the magic are a team i like to pull for. Plus, this completely rules the clips out for Dwight.

    Vucevic is a very good player.

    I posted this in the CP3 and Howard want to team up thread, but just in case others missed it:


    Was watching ESPN last night around 9pm Central and heard Arash Markazi (ESPNLA.com) mention Blake Griffen:


    Even more evidence...looking better and better for us. :grin:

    They've led us to believe that everyone wants to be a Laker, but from these reports Blake doesn't want to go there with their crappy team either.

    The new nba : "I'd rather be a Clipper than a Laker" :grin:
