Granted he won't miss much of anything, but a shoulder injury already can't be a good sign.

Please don't be Danny Manning part two,


I hate to see young talented men get those severe career altering injuries early in their career.  It diminishes the entire league.

that franchise needs to be renamed, relocated, and given their own building so they aren't in the shadow of the Lakers and so that they can hopefully shake the bad luck they've had. if you're looking for the perfect description of a failing franchise, look no further than the clippers. i still can't believe the supersonics were relocated and renamed, but the clippers haven't been.

I agree.
sometimes you have to bite your lip, exhale and move on.  So, I have.

Well, he's playing for the Clippers.

So get ready.

Although I agree - it won't ever happen with Sterling running the show. Financial, they're perfectly viable in LA (and perhaps only LA with the ways things are run) and have a sweetheart deal at the staples center. They aren't going anywhere.
