Over Byron's dead body. Which, btw, still has his arms crossed.

| Why are we even wanting to get Farmar back? Only reason would be if we plan to ship one of our two PGs. Otherwise, he adds no value over what we already have on the team. He's proven throughout his NBA career that he is a mediocre backup PG and nothing more. He continues to believe he is better than that (good confidence, I suppose), and continues to show with his play that he isn't. Anywhere he has gone. |

Lol, dumbass Clips. Rivers might be the worst pg in the NBA. They're letting go of an actual rotation-caliber player for him.
DO IT MITCH! |

Mediocre backup PG > Price |

I think Price is the better, and more consistent of the two, although I don't think either are good options. |

I think they would probably net out pretty equally in terms of +/- . Farmar is a better shooter, Price a better defender, and neither are especially great passers.
But at least there's a contingent of Lakers fans that do give a damn about Farmar because of his past exploits. He'll sell a few extra tickets. |

Think of all the wide open shots that Kobe gets Price. Not saying Jordan would be left open like that...he wouldn't. That's the point. Putting a decent three point shooter out there improves the spacing for Kobe dramatically. |

No he's not. After what Lillard did to him last week? And CP3? He regularly gets shredded by opposing points in this league. Maybe he can belly up some guys, and gambles for steals, but he on the whole not a very effective defender. |

Over Byron's dead body. Which, btw, still has his arms crossed. |
And still looks good in a $2000 suit.

| Doc Rivers' son is not good at basketball (dunno why he is in the NBA). Farmar is better. But, whatever the Clippers is doing, I like it. |

austin rivers was really really really bad in his first clipper game.
I hope he keeps it up. Hopefully doc keeps moves like that coming. |

He is also a free agent this summer, I wonder how much Doc will end up paying him, and how many years. |

| Definite no for me on Farmar. I'd preferably like to have fewer pg scrubs on the team taking minutes away from Clarkson, or at least the available minutes that should be given to Clarkson and not our "Head of the Snake". |
