I think he's in China. Not sure how he's playing or when his committment is up in that league..I wish he was around right now. I agree Daddy, we could've used him..He could've given us another Turiaf..Better rebounder than Ronny too probably..

i think Turiaf is a better player than Boone myself... love the energy he brings & the defensive plays he makes... he brings alot of the same energy & passion that JYD used to give us off the bench.

I think Jordan has a lot more talent and upside but I like Boone a lot. I don't know why he isn't in the NBA now. My guess is he is in Philly next year with Rod Thorn.

Wasn't Josh a bit of a pot head? Could explain why he is not in the league- and I agree- he is the kinda player we could use, minus the smoke.

At some point, though, what's on paper will translate into reality.

If injuries don't become an issue- especially with Blake, I just think the Clippers have a bright future with the nucleus of young players they have on their roster.

If the Clippers decide to keep Jordan, Kaman may also have some value as an expiring contract next year- and would seem to be a good "rental" for a contending team.

I just see the franchise moving in the right direction, despite their history.

Donald Sterling. Yuck.

A core of Eric Gordon/Blake Griffin/Eric Bledsoe/Deandre Jordan ain't bad...

Let them develop and once Baron and Kaman are off the books you can pay the youths that develop and jettison those that don't.

The only problem is Donald Sterling might be the worst owner..ever.

The problem isn't there talent, they have no leadership, no warriors, no direction (sound familiar)
By the time they develope their talent they will trade for more draft picks, because they won't be good enough to keep the core guys together, and as we have witness with our own team, stars don't just flock to teams with bad history, and a losing culture.

Even when they do manage to bring someone in, they either get hurt or there will be some hole some where else on the roster.

D jordan is ok, but but he could easily turn into oliwakandi(spelling)
