I never though I'd see the day where you could throw the ball down to Blake and get a easy bucket. Dudes game has taken off and as good as CP3 is he's to ball dominant and needs to have the ball in his hands 90% of the time. DJ is leading the league in rebounds and making defensive plays, Redikk is a lot better than everyone thought he was and Crawford can still drop 30 on any given night. There's the old saying that a point guard(under 6'9) can never be the best player on a championship team. Clippers all ready got there man Doc and could potentially get a treasure chest for that little fat nikka CP3. Point guards are growing on trees these days so if your Clippers management would you call around and see what you could get for CP3. And just remember as soft as Blake is KG was getting punked by Anthony Peeler not to long ago and he's now considered on of the toughest players in the leauge :scusthov:

I would pull a masai ujiri and trade that nikka to Houston and get half of the Rockets roster back.

No. As good as the Clippers look, when defenses start getting into playoff gear, you really need a floor general like CP3 to help out on offense. I think CP3 will see that Blake can be a playmaker and scorer too though.

Did you miss last years playoff series vs the Grizzlies. They basically said you can dribble around all you want but we ain't double teaming you and leaving guys wide open and the Clippers offense looked like shyt. If the Griz played the Clippers again I have no doubt they would beat them in a 7 game series just like last year. That over dribbling I need to make every play for everyone shyt only works in the regular season.

That was more because Gasol and Z-Bo treated Blake and DeAndre like Graffita did Dre in Lockdown.

The weakness has always been the Clippers bigs on solid post defense and very physical play.

I know that played a role but cp3's over dribbling was huge to. As long as cp3 is on the roster Blake will have to play second fiddle. He's so quick to give up the ball and play soft when he's playing with cp3 but goes ham when cp3 is out. The only reason I would consider this is because of how much you could get back for CP3 and Blake's aggressiveness when cp3 is not playing is making that decision a lot easier.

CP3 over dribbled because he tends to be the only one who consistently creates shots. Blake was obviously flustered dealing with Z-Bo, the lack of fouls being called, and the physical play. Not only that but DeAndre is almost useless if he's not near the hoop or cutting and Gasol has pretty much some of the best mixture of vision, size, and awareness to easily stop Jordan's cuts while keeping an eye to rotate over to stop a Griffin drive.

It's just an ugly matchup for the Clippers because they just focus entirely on frustrating Blake.

Cp3 over dribbles because he needs 11 pnr on one play to get himself or someone else a shot

PnR is one of the most versatile plays in basketball and CP3 is such a tricky and crafty ball handler with such a good midrange game that it opens up a bunch of different options for him.

I knew stupid threads like this would pop up as soon as Clippers survived without him. Hel no, they shouldnt entertain trading him. He's arguably the 3rd best player in the league. Clippers has had an easy schedule since he went down, they wouldnt survive in the playoffs without him.

I would welcome him but cp3 would fail in Houston. We don't run the one despite it historical being Dwight's most productive set.

But watch our game and you'll be lucky to see the one ran. More than 3 times, and that's a lot for this squad.

They shouldnt trade the homo but its clear now that he is overrated as fukk and as I said the most overrated player in NBA history. Just look at people calling him the third best player in the league. People a few years ago thought he was second above Durant. WTF! nikka is trash in theplayoffs and puts up numbers in the reg season because as stated already he always has the bal and you nikkas eat that shyt up. Id put money on it that if they played the Warriors Curry would eat that dudes lunch if you were to compare stats at the end of the series. AND GS would win. get this nikka all the way the fukk outta here. That flopping and fake tough guy act makes shyt even worse. Rondo exposed the fraud tough guy act years ago when he stepped to dude and he wanted no problems.
