All the talk is about Griffin but Eric Gordon is very, very good too. Has upped his PPG From 16.9 to 23.7 in one season and scored 30 today against the Lakers. They have 2 stars there the Clippers, will be a very dangerous team in a year or 2. Loads of talent. Probably still a bit consistent away from home to make the playoffs this year but watch out.

Eric Gordon reminds me of Mitch Richmond but he shoots the three ball like Ray Allen.
Improved so much after his stint with Team USA.
DeAndre Jordan is the other one who has improved rapidly so much. One of the most agile 7 footers getting around and swats shots left right and centre.
When you chuck in the 2 rookies Bledsoe and Aminu, The Clips have a solid base. Both rooks have looked like long term starters. Bledsoe will back up B-Diddy for the next three years then take over. And Aminu will be starting small forward within 12 months.
I think they will deal Kaman and his huge contract and be in a even better spot in 6 weeks.
The Clippers are one of the best teams to watch on the League Pass.

And who said ' White men can't jump? '. Those are awsome figures.
On another note, Chicago's D.Rose had a lazy triple double this morning against Memphis.
There's currently a promotion running where you can have full access to NBA League Pass until the 23rd of January (think it started a few days ago). All you have to do is register on the NBA site. It's pretty cool, I'm thinking about buying it.
Better snap it up quickly, big card tomorrow with 13 games.

Used to be. They cleaned house about 18 months ago. Had a great draft with Aminu and Bledsoe. And the low cost free agents of Foye, Gomes and Ike Digou have been pretty good.
I would make a run at Carmelo Anthony. Package up Bledsoe, Aminu, Chris Kaman and a first rounder plus a couple of million bucks.
Davis, Gordon, Anhtony, Griffin, Jordan would be as good 5 as there is in the West.
SCOOP said:
They definitely have layed down some good foundations, It's a shame Kaman can't get on floor in recent years.
Even with Melo this team won't contend for playoffs. The Clips defense is woeful.

Melo will definitely be traded lock that in 100%
A trade involving Detroit and New Jersey is looking most likely.
It's confirmed the Nets and Nuggets have discussed a three-way trade proposal that would land Nuggets guard Chauncey Billups and Pistons guard Rip Hamilton alongside Anthony in New Jersey.
Nuggets would end up with Derrick Favors, Devin Harris and at least two first-round picks, Pistons would receive Troy Murphy's expiring contract from New Jersey.

Rubbish on that team not making playoffs. Eric Gordon plays Kobe better then anyone and is a great defender, Blake Griffin is all about hustle and playing team defence and Jordan is one of the best shot blockers in the game. That five would be a walkup for the playoffs.
Jukes Extended said:
No that won't happen, the Nets Russian Owner has told the Nets people to pull out of the trade and not to continue the chase of Melo.
I think Mikhail Prokhorov will turn the Nets around the right way, slow and steady.
