we got 20 wins in the bag
we got nothing for sam, thx to falk, nothing for brand, ditto, and nothing for corey, oh well that's the clip way... and the good news is
we are in the lottery for the next 5 years, not to worry, those are good party's...
and of course baron will go back to the warriors... |

| actually look at it this way, with eb and corey we make the playoffs one time and that's only becuase cassel won a bunch of close games for us... actually the clips got burned for begin good guys ...i.e. releasing cassel... probably trying to appease falk... well done |

Why are we upset? Because just when it looked like we caught a break, it turns sour. Could be a blessing in disguise (maybe Baron is just what we need at PG, we get a good enough PF and Brand gets hurt in Philly). But it feels like crap when you've put all of your alloted-heart & soul (of a fan) into this team and the best player to ever grace the court, turns around and leaves. It's not that he left that hurts really though, it's the fact that he made us believe he was in the NBA to win and he would stay here as long as we had the pieces to compete. With Baron Davis, it was obviously the right place to be...I know Philly has some young talents, but how is Andre Miller, Willie Green, Andre Igoudala, Thaddeus Young & Samuel Dalembert better as a group than Baron Davis, Eric Gordon/Cuttino Mobley, Al Thornton and Chris Kaman??? Maybe they are, but I just dont see it. We had a team about to make major strides for years to come in L.A....and maybe we still do, but to give that all up feels like a knife through the leg for us Clipper fans who have had 1 real taste of NBA greatness in many many many years.
WE SHALL RECOVER. WE WILL WIN WITHOUT ELTON BRAND. I assume the team and coaches feel the same. |

Probably a GSW fan who can't hang with his own crowd. I've said it before, I'll say it again:
Monta Ellis wants to be a Knick. Harrington wants to leave. You still have no true PG or PF. You just paid 10M for another athletic swingman. Cohen makes Sterling look like Jay-Z when it comes to spending. Your fans are almost as classless as the lakers. I'm much more content being a heart-broken Clipper fan right now than a clueless GSW fan. |

That is the right attitude. Can't just feel sorry for ourselves. Keep positive. |

| I know we all feel like s**t right now! This suxs but no one, I mean no one is irreplacable. We have an all star point guard and an up and coming all star in Al. Kaman is still a beast when focused. We have a balance of experience and youth. This will hopefully make our guys work hard this summer and step up there game. I dont think Okefor or any of those guys out there are the answer right now. We feel betrayled and just wanna jump out there and get someone,but really they all sux. Josh has potential but he is not a true power forward. by the way f*** Elton!. It took me awhile to post because I was to upset to type! |

| i've been a fan since walton only played home games, seen it all..again eb and corey only brought one playoff and that was because of sam... basically the problem in this brand deal was the agent, since the clips did him a favor with sam, hey clips no more favors to any of these guys... they don't have clip hearts... |

| Even with Elton B@$tard gone, we are still in good shape to get another free agent, Okefor, Smith, both young and athletic, with great upside. We dont have to put the entire offense on there shoulders. |
