While that may be true, it hasn't prevented our front office from expressing interest in Josh Smith in the past.
Smith's character is deeply flawed. But he has excellent size, is extremely athletic, and is very versatile. And there's no better coach in the NBA that could police him than Pop. If he gets his head on straight, there's no question Smith would make the Spurs a better team. At the very least, he would've made a better signing than Bonner.

Free throw shooting may be a problem. But you can't assume they won't play team ball. Paul will make sure they do. All players make mistakes. Manu is an all time great, and he's made some dumb mistakes in big games. Fortunately the Spurs will take the Clippers more seriously than Spurs fans. Fortunately we probably won't play them in first round again.

When did they ever legitimately express interest in Josh Smith? Agents float this shit all of the time. Doesn't make it true.

Re: Josh Smith to Sign w/ Clippers
Josh Smith was absolutely a cancer in Detroit...but he was solid in Houston, and showed he was willing to come off the bench without causing problems.
It's not even a matter of guys like Stephenson/Smith/Aldrich being that good...it's just LAC's bench was so god-awful last year that any halfway competent player is a noticeable upgrade. Hopefully Stephenson plays like he did in Charlotte and not Indiana :lol Dude was fucking terrible last year.

The Clippers run out of gas after playing a grueling 7 game series against none other than the Spurs & couldn't handle the pace when the Rockets put the pedal to the metal. They essentially started taking breaks on defense & committing silly turnovers that could be attributed to fatigue. They weren't mentally strong enough to overcome the fatigue; "Mind over Matter" just doesn't apply to the Clippers.

Re: Josh Smith to Sign w/ Clippers
I can't compare Enrique to JS anymore. JS showed he not a piece of shit cancer anymore. :lmao

Re: Josh Smith to Sign w/ Clippers
It drives me nuts how people over hype Lance Stephenson. This guy is pure garbage I watched a lot of his games this year since the Hornets are my home team. I know people are going to say it's the hornets so of course he was going to suck but my response to that is bullshit reason for his sucking. The damning part of Lance's tenure with the Hornets was that he actually tried and played hard but still sucked dick. Lance's jumpshot is terrible and by comparison makes Rondo's J look great. Lance gets too much hype for his confrontations with Lebron. Lance is a system player that looked decent in Vogel's system.

I provided a link in my post. The source is Yahoo! Sports, which, if I'm not mistaken, is a fairly reputable source.

Re: Josh Smith to Sign w/ Clippers
Yeah, it looks good on paper. But wait till Smith or Lance take it upon themselves to try and take over a game, stopping ball movement and pissing Baby Paul off. I see this ending in a trainwreck.

Re: Josh Smith to Sign w/ Clippers
Clippers were the best offensive team in the NBA last year, and 2 of their 3 key additions are offensive-minded, while their only key defensive addition(Smith) will not be playing in clutch time..
They are a below average to bad defensive team, it is still their major flaw..

Re: Josh Smith to Sign w/ Clippers
When spurs sign old washed up David West for backup depth, it's a semen party in here.
When Clippers sign Josh Smith for depth and rest for player who shits on spurs before getting gassed, it's crapped on
Don't change Spursfan :downspin:

Re: Josh Smith to Sign w/ Clippers
Lester Hudson and Hedo turkoglu were getting real playoff minutes for LAC last season. They signed Jsmoove to make sure things like that don't ever happen again. You have to view it from that context

Well, it wasn't Woj, so I take it a bit less seriously. In addition, at that point, JS was an ending contract. That has it's own attractions that have nothing to do with the player in question.

Coming from a sorry ass Carolina franchise. Bobcats suck, Panthers suck, Cam Newton is the most overrated QB in the league, y'all paid $100+ mil for a below average QB, and the Bobcats still suck :lmao

Oh they are good man, they got better this off season as well and those saying not worried or this or that are fooling themselves. They are a very good team and can beat you in a series, they will be a top 3 team out West easily IMO.
