    You know it's pretty bad when HCP is excited about the draft...

    ...In December.

    Knowing how thin we are and LA possibly has heart issues, I think we can start looking at draft.

    I was just going to make a thread saying blow it up(trade Aldridge, cut salary), obtain multiple 1st round draft picks and draft Anthony Davis

    This team could have $30M in salary to spend as early as next year

    OK there is no bright side. I am not even so sure we will be in the lottery to get a good pick. Neither Roy or Greg were going to get more than 24-25 minutes a game. So our two deep is still good enough to compete. The Free Agent becomes more important though.

    This is eerie how similar to BRoy this guy's game is.

    Roy has a lot of upper body strength though. Rivers needs to work on that.

    I remember everybody including HCP was saying Evan Turner was gonna be like Brandon. I know he is just entering his 2nd season, but what a bad year he had!

    Didn't we trade our pick for Gerald Wallace?

    Nope. They got the pick in the 2011 draft that we got from NO in the Bayless trade. They used it on Tobias Harris.
