    I know this has been the common joke since the draft, but their last two drafts have not been bad.

    Eric Gordon and Al Thornton are two good picks.

    I thought Minnisota was the worst. At the Clips are still in LA. In minnesotta you not only have a crappy team headed by a crappy coach, you're also in minnesotta :p

    Yep! Insanely rich but immensely stupid NBA players never have financial troubles, fortunately.

    Griffin, Zbo
    Thorton
    Gordon

    If they decide to run and gun, they could make some noise. i don't feel bad for griffin, they have some young good players + some veterans. as of now, they are on the same level with PHX and probably will get 10th seed next year with this lineup.

    He'll get the same rookie contract at #1, no matter who drafts him. The same rookie contract playing for a jacked up club like the Clippers will be more fulfilling at another environment. That's why the players pull a Danny Ferry or Steve Francis.
