A clean slate is what LeBron would love, it'd be better than the mismatched crew he has in Cleveland.

If the Milwaukee Bucks had simply played a standard NBA defense, Jason Kidd would likely still have a job. No one questions teams that switch on off-ball screens or drop to the paint on a pick and roll — that’s just how NBA defense is played today, and Milwaukee has the personnel to do it. But as the Bucks’ coach, Kidd chose instead to pursue the evolutionary next step in NBA defense, even if it ran him out of town.
With the Bucks on a three-game winning streak since Kidd was fired, and with the team playing better defense over the weekend, it may soon be easy to point to that switch as the cure-all. But if nothing else, Kidd’s Bucks committed an act of science. The hypothesis: An athletic roster that forces turnovers and extra passes will lead invariably to a top defense. The finding: Not if achieving those goals means giving opponents a clear run at the rim on practically every possession.
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

LeBron isn't coming to LA to play the Warriors 4 times in the regular season and face them in the playoff conference semis
By Kibner Go To PostI wish he wasn't an abusive shit head :all i see is frank's shit defense
What if LeBron went back to Miami? They are a solid team and maybe has someone else join with him and wade off the bench. I remember a while ago where he mentioned its either Cleveland or Miami for him.
By s y Go To PostWell, they're probably spitting out whatever lie they're being told so that they can get scoops in the future.
So typical sports journalism?
By unknown Go To Postmy fault, did not mean to spam.

By Zeus Ex Machina Go To PostI still think Lebron figures out a way to get on the Rockets…… don't ask me how
It would require LBJ to accept being 3rd banana and play the same role that wade played on the heat. Basically, super role player.

Lowe on the Griffin trade: http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/22258759/zach-lowe-blake-griffin-trade-future-la-clippers-detroit-pistons
I will say it's bittersweet seeing the first homegrown Clipper superstar traded away
I started watching Blake Griffin's OU highlights once the Clippers won the draft lottery in 2009. In spite of losing the first year due to injury, it was thrilling watching him his rookie year as he exploded onto the scene.
Though he never truly lived up to my expectations as the supposed savior of the Clippers franchise, he was truly one of my favorite players to watch, warts and all.
You'll be missed, Blake.
Now, it's time to tank like there's no tomorrow.
M1A1s got nothing on this Clippers tank.

By blackace Go To PostBron is better than CP3 tho….But CP3 would be completely useless as a 3D guy. LBJ can be elite on defense.
By RobNBanks Go To PostWhy the hell would LeBron go to the clippers when their second best player would be ..?Not gonna lie, I think the Clippers are being pretty smart.
You clear room to pitch Lebron on a clean slate to build your dream roster(hey CP3, Melo, George, we can do this thing out here with Doc), if it doesn't work, cool, you got the tank in gear and start the rebuild. Because you certainly weren't chipping with the current gang.
By giririsss Go To PostBut CP3 would be completely useless as a 3D guy. LBJ can be elite on defense.
He also can be the WOAT because he don't give a fuck. How many times do you see him not help on D and chastise the guy on the far side of the lane like "Dude why you fucking up that's your man!"

On the topic of Jeff Teague playing the worst game of basketball ever.
No this is not an exaggeration oh my fucking god I can't even believe what I just watched.
Jeff Teague is 1-12 with 2 points don't even fucking ask me how he has 10 assists. Just ignore that stat. He's lucky he can sometimes pass the ball to the right person.
Dude just fucking called a timeout with 12 seconds left WHEN WE DIDN'T HAVE ONE. Not only that, he's been taking and missing bad shots all game long.
He can't fucking guard a marshmellow on a stick and not only that.. BUT GUESS WHAT?! WE PAID THIS GUY $5 MORE MILLION A YEAR THAN RUBIO.
Unbelievable. Just single handedly lost us this game.
Keeping tally since I forgot a number of things in my fit of rage:
-absolutely trash ass pass into Butler with like a under a minute left.. literally gave the ball away
-got blocked on a breakaway layup
-missed a wide open transition layup sometime in the second half .. apparently twice (again hard to keep track of all his bullshit)
Jim Pete postgame (and I'm paraphrasing here): "Jeff Teague.. I don't know his brain just short circuited in the second half" ….. lmao
OHH and I forgot about a dumbass technical he got too.. shit just keeps getting better

Now the East gets to watch the easiest to topple big in the league for a while.
Real talk though...it sucks when your stars get traded away or they walk. As a Jazz fan, it's always a "when, not if" scenario for us. Sorry, Clips fans.
