I don't get the hate on CP3 tbh. At 31 he just put up 25/9.9/5 on 49% from the field and 36.8% from three


No hate for CP3, he was the NBA best PG for years and is still a hell of a player, it just happens that he play for LA Floppers.


Stern royally shat on his career.

I don't like him but I'm not exactly sure why. Haha.

Not sure if this might have already been covered pages ago but I am still smiling that the Clips collapsed once again.

Does finding glee in Clipper misery make me a petty man?

Clippers need to let Blake go...

Build team around Cp3 and Jordan...

I'm not sure if they can do any sign and trades or anything...Also, not sure what there cap space is...

I try to keep Reddick but it depends on his price.

They need shooters, especially at 3 and 4 spot...

Ilyasova, Patterson, Nick Young, Hardaway Jr.

I would bring back Austin Rivers

This current iteration of the Clippers look good on paper, but constantly underperforms in the playoffs...another reason why they play the games.

These playoffs seem flat without the lakers. Like a coke that's lost its fizz.

They are really weak at the 2 and 3 spots. Their PF is always injured and doesn't play defense.

Not at all. At least not any pettier than the next fan. I watched the series rooting fod the Jazz.

Its just great to have "2nd round" in my back pocket whenever I talk to Clippers fans who talk trash.

The commissioner and the league did him no favors. He has more right to ring chase than anyone else.

its a lot of money to leave on the table. I get the idea of ring chasing is more about the ring and less about the money, but how much can the spurs offer him??

Injuries are the concern. He plays at a high level when he does play.

I agree. Nash was affective till he came here which I believe was 37?

He just needs his minutes monitored. And if he decides to stay with the Clippers they need to add another ball handler to take some pressure off him.

Whoa.
The league lets paul defend tougher than they let anyone defend him, and let him talk back to the refs for the same stuff that gets cousins T'd up.
The league has done cp3 tons of solids and he is a millionaire, He'll be fine.

Because he wants money. He helped negotiate the new CBA with the super max provision for players with ten years in the league, which he no doubt fully expected to take advantage of. 200 million dollars can buy a lot of rings

Yeah, I'd be surprised if CP3 chose not to take the big money.

I think it would be a mistake on his part. If he got some rings he could sign a very nice contract with Nike or whoever.

Just think if Iverson got rings his shoes would siill be selling like hot cakes (even more so than they are now).

That dude would be a worshiped.

Yeah. He shoves Hayward I think in the back, nothing but a double T. Tho I think its more that he is a small guy

Lol. Come on, he's already a household name and has national ad campaigns for himself. He no doubt already has a lucrative shoe deal too. Winning a ring wouldn't make him much more bankable than he is now.

I think he is fine with his State Farm ads. And $200 mil over the next 5 years.
