Chris Paul shows love to New Orleans and hints at returning to the Spirit

lol like Parker would have any of those "stats" if he played for the Clippers. Spurs fans always failing to see the BIG PICTURE as always

Eric Gordon has everything stacked against him
He can't make his teammates better because he doesn't have the right teammates
Not his fault he can't carry a team
Not his fault he's never won anywhere
Not his fault he can't stay healthy
Not his fault his team couldn't win until he left
Not his fault he doesn't play defense
If someone else would only make his team win, he'd be on a winning team
If someone else would carry his team to the playoffs, he'd be on a playoff team
If someone else won him rings, he'd have rings
If someone else made him play well enough to be an All-Star, he'd be an All-Star

lol he'll want back in a year or two whenever the Hornets are the best team in the NBA.

Ahaha, I'm quoting this so I can have a good laugh In a couple years.

if the Spurs had a healthy Cornerstone with Duncan they would have never gotten the beat out of them in the first round by an 8th seed

Well, I bet the Hornets and Clippers wish they knew what it was like to have a healthy Gordon.

But no, Tony Allen would have erased his ass right out of that series, especially with Gasol and Randolph backing him up in the paint.

And Gordon sure as couldn't have been the centerpiece of an offense this year that was predicated on distributing to all 5 players on the court. Think he could have gotten so many easy shots for everyone else on his squad? Has he ever made anyone on either of his teams better? Nope.

Nice scorer, gets his numbers, doesn't give you much of anything else. Can't anchor a whole team's offense like Parker, certainly can't anchor a whole team's defense either. Probably can't be the best player on a playoff team, never mind a conference finals team. So no, he's not remotely in Parker's league.

[fevertrees]

LOL Parker couldnt even anchor his own damn marriage and you are going to talk about the Spurs team?

Gosh, I just got completely owned talking about basketball, so I think I'll see if I can distract anyone with my lame comedy stylings.

[Clipper Nation]

I see BR conveniently didn't link to the article and left out these parts....

How do you feel about the Clippers' offseason additions? Grant Hill, Jamal Crawford, Chauncey Billups...

CP: We had a big offseason. Our front office did an outstanding job bringing some players in. I'm excited to get back and play with my teammates.

Were you active recruiting players?

CP: Yeah, no question. I talked to Grant, talked to Chauncey, talked to Jamal... Talked to just everybody I possibly could.

What was your pitch to convince those guys?

CP: My thing was, first of all, this is a first-class organization. Our front office and our staff is one of the best in the league. I also was just telling them how fun it would be to play with me, Blake [Griffin], DeAndre [Jordan] and Caron Butler.

Hoping and praying for CP3 to come back to the Spirit

Classic goal post movement.

Right now, with the way both teams have been built, CP3 would have a better shot at the championship with the Hornets than with the monkeyballers tbh.

Clippers overpaying Monkeyball pretty much seals their fate as a for-profit team and not a winning team. Monkeyball shouldn't make more than 14 mil

Desperate to see the Clippers fail

Not really. They've been a failure for soooooooo long that it is nice to see them actually attempt to do something other than suck.

[The Batman]

Still won't help WNBA ratings.

That's like saying I'm desperate to see the sun rise.

Are you sure you're actually a Lakerfan? That's FAR too classy to be real, tbh...

[Latarian Milton]

would rather have an OJ Mayo who would crank out similar outputs but only cost 1/10 $

Cornerstone is Cornerstone for some playoff games tbh, and is mostly good in others. The key is if healthy, though.

[racm]

Gordon = Bogut of SGs tbh

Very good, but has never had a healthy season.
