    Not true. He can take the Terry/Prigs minutes and play backup SG.
    Right now the rotation is:
    Bev, Harden, Ariza, DMo, Howard
    With a bench (that'll consistently play every game) of: Jones, Capela, Brewer

    The rest is up in the air. There's definitely room for Lee.

    so Morey is interesting in free agent players, but nothing will materialize until
    the other signings get resolved (Great looks like we are not getting anyone )

    The other signings are better players so it's ok.

    if we get them (seems weird to me that Josh Smith hasn't signed yet)
    I dunno wuz up with Mcdaniels (didnt he have like 2 weeks to negotiate)
    since July 1st? Should he have pretty good idea of who is offering what?
    would think the offer sheet would be signed by now

    If the Mavs land DWill would there be any other teams that need a starting PG? That would give Morey tons of leverage in dealing for Lawson if that's even something he's considering.

    Welp, there goes another Rockets target. To a conference rival, no less, that needed a 3rd big. Now the Clips have 48 minutes of great rim protection. All they need is a decent shooting 4 man behind Blake and they're set to make a big run next season.


    Both Aldrich and Gee off my free agent target list today. Sure hope we make a solid play for Marjanovic now.

    I also have no idea why DWill would go to Dallas (besides going home) to be on a terrible team while he's in his last relevant years of being an NBA player. Personally, I think that's more of Stein spin then anything, I think he would look around to see what his best fit is and if he wants a chance to be a starter on a good team, Houston gives him a great chance.

    48 min of "great" rim protection? Wow! Since when did Cole Aldrich become relevant? Lol

    Aldrich is a great vaue backup 5. You'll see it this year when he's on a good team. The man does play good defense in the paint.

    Over a year ago. He's become a very good paint defender.

    Doesn't mean he's still trash. He's a very good backup 5 and what makes him even better is his price. That's a value signing by the Clippers. Their offseason just got even better.
