    I'll just use this thread to confess that I hope Sterling doesn't sell the team. I want him to remain owner for comedic purposes.

    They need to force him to sell the team or threaten them with expulsion from the league and reintroduce the Supersonics...

    In all seriousness two teams in LA is just stupid.

    So let's dissolve the Clippers ASAP.

    Move the Clippers to Seattle.
    Have a bidding war on the rest of the players from the original Clipper team.
    Treat the new Clippers team like an expansion team and have an expansion draft.

    I wish lol.

    Would love the Rockets to benefit from this and get their hands on Hedo.

    I have a lot of respect for Les here. He is not just coming out and going "Oh I don't approve of what he said." He is going all out with "What he said completely disgusts me and I want to grind him to dust until he coughs up his team."

    If you had to choose between Blake Griffin or Chris Paul, who would you choose? :eek:

    Is that even a joke? CP3 all the way. Imagine CP3 with PBev coming off the bench. It's like the Howard-Asik wombo combo.

    While CP3 gets the nod from me as well, I do not think it is a joke.

    Brake Griffin is beasting in the post and he has not even hit his prime.

    A Griffin and Howard combo in the post would be devastating.

    Griffin has been a beast, yes, but CP3 is the best PG in the league and our weakest position is the PG one. We can get by with Howard-TJones-Asik rotating around positions 4 and 5. PG is just bad right now... :(

    If the Clippers win a championship or even go to the finals this year we can forget about them splitting up. We have to root for the Warriors

    Tons of respect to Les Alexander. That he's willing to crush Sterling to get him out of the NBA says a lot about his character.

    Props to owners like Jordan, Alexander, Arison, and Ranadive for stepping up and setting a tone.

    I worry about CP3's health moving forward.

    It's irrelevant though. Silver is not going to make Clippers players free agents.
