welp, that hurts our best draft pick next year.  I think Dallas could actually miss the playoffs.  I expect Brooklyn to sneak in. 

At least we still have our own draft pick.

Yes!  I don't like the Clips. 

Hurts our pick from Dallas, but I was never hanging my hopes on that anyway.
You’ll have to excuse my lengthiness—the reason I dread writing letters is because I am so apt to get to slinging wisdom & forget to let up. Thus much precious time is lost.

Meh, Jordan should have stayed in LA. Not that I want the Clips to win but he would have a better chance.
The Nets will finish with the worst record and the Celtics will end up with the 4th pick.

I'm fine with that. Consider though, Tyson was great for them last season, and they yet were showing signs of struggling. So I don't think this changes much for them. Also, we have too many picks in 2016 as it is, so I'm good with that.

Apparently - according to report - he and CP3 didn't get along well.

Clippers dealt a major blow ...

Although I'm sure they'll remedy the situation in 12 months time. I doubt they'll have any problems convincing a top FA to join CP3 and B.Griffin. Doc as head coach will probably help a lot too.

I don't want the Mavs to stink too much, it is top 7 protected afterall.

I don't think they can replace Deandre Jordan, too important to them.

Doc will give it a go this year, but I can see him swinging a trade of himself to the Cavs next offseason.
We're the ones we've been waiting for.

That there is still a worse starting 5 than the Clips had this year, with an equal or worse bench. Unfortunately, a playoff team. That play with double screens, DJ rolling, Dirk popping. It's there every time.

At least we will get to see how much DeAndre is worth without CP3 making it so easy on him on offense.

Y'all are laughing, but it's sad. I go home and deny the wing."
