tbh if the Clips can't get a guarantee that Howard re-signs, I wouldn't do it.

Pretty sure Howard would re-sign 100% if he gets to live in LA AND play with CP3.

This. If I'm 100% sure he'll stay, I'd do it. If it's 50/50, I prefer to keeep Griffin.

Howard has hit his celiing, repeatedly. And it ain't a glass ceiling. Solid cement, like his head. I have a sneaking suspicion that Griffin has hit his celing as well, but, it's just a feeling. With Howard it's a sad reality.

In Today's NBA, the Centers affect the game most. Not to mention a dominating center as Howard.
The Power Foreward Griffin? He's good for a show sometimes but not for blocking , layups and mid-range shooting show.

^Howard's been toiling (off & on) (mostly off) for nearly 8 campaigns. He's got a pot to piss in and a window to throw it out of.

Nothing else.

I brought this up cuz I noticed Bill Simmons ranked Griffin ahead of Howard in his trade value column. Found that odd.

Not even a reasonable comparison. Blake is promising, but other than his insane hops and power slams, he's just a developing player. Howard would make the Clippers the far and away favorites in the West, probably in the league.

Sure, but I wouldn't trade Duncan for Howard.

I also wouldn't trade RJ for Carmelo. Carmelo has bad team chemistry written all over him.

You know the Spurs would have won a ring last year if they didn't bench Blair after the break.

If I was LAC I wouldn't trade both Griffin AND Deandra for Howard.

Howard for Jordan + Foye (~5m expiring), Ryan Gomes, Gordon $3.8 mil exception & a pick would work.

Sign Simmons for the rest of the year, he knows the system and is more than a serviceable defender.

Paul/Foye/Bledsoe/Williams
Foye/Williams/Butler
Butler/Simmons
Griffin/Evans/Martin/Thompkins/Cook
Howard/Martin

Talk about LOB city.
btw, I think Orlando would laugh at that. No pun intended

Yes. Both players are similarly limited offensively. The difference between the two is Howard's shot blocking ability. That type of defensive anchor transforms a team. Orlando gives up 91.7 points per game, 5th fewest in the league. Those numbers are not fueled by the ferocious defense of Jason Richardson and Hedo Turkoglu.

if i were clippers i wouldn't trade for him but i would make a few salary-dump moves to trim all big contracts (excluding CP3 of course) and lure that nigga DH to join us on free transfer come summer, LA is a big market and its time for dem clippers to take it over NOW
