The Lakers say no.
For the Clippers it's not at all laughable. Once again people underestimate
the impact on the game of basketball of one Kevin Garnett.
Billups, Bledsoe and Terry could get the job done with Griffin, Garnett and D. Jordan.
Chris Paul, most talented player in the deal, but in the game of basketball the superstars do take away a bit of light from the others, including backups. How many minutes of Bledsoe with a healthy Chris Paul? Not enough. He goes to waste (not Paul's fault).
Bottom line: 42 minutes of Bledsoe and 38 minutes of Garnett better than 42 minutes of Chris Paul and no Garnett.
Clippers lose the deal on talent and improve their title hopes.
(pick up Rondo to boot)
