Uncertain grounds
Smart provides one invaluable thing for a team that Melo CANNOT---DEFENSE!

Team defense has been weak with him starting and Bradley out. His defense is overrated. He's too aggressive, commits dumb fouls and isn't great on rotations. He's pretty good on the ball but I'll take Melo. Crowder and Amir is fine too

Here's the thing,

The Clippers haven't been able to get past the 1st or 2nd round even with CP3, Deandre and Blake all healthy.

I've seen them all bytch up when they were up 3-1 vs the Rockets. I think they could use a scorer who isn't afraid to take those shots when it's late in the game, and a series is on the line.

The Clippers need to say fukk it and make it happen, because they won't do shyt anyways against the Warriors and the Spurs.

All this drip on me

Man just imagine if my nikka Melo and CP3 both eventually got a ring for the Clippers. The fukkery and classic threads on the coli that would ensue alone would be some next level shyt..

Mannix tried to say on the ringer podcast that it'd have to be smart and crowder for melo but that seems like an overpay

If that was the offer from Boston the deal would be done.

Yea, idk why the Celts do that... especially when Crowder is the perfect compliment to Melos game.
Realistically I think it's Smart, Johnson, Zeller and Brooklyns 2018 pick.
