Because he's the same guy that traded Perk for Green.

yes the very same who traded perkins who this year had the worst per of any player in nba playoffs history i think, and nate robinson who was immediately released by okc in return for jeff green, nenad krstic (who went to play in europe) and a top 10 protected pick of the clippers, which at the time sounded good since the clippers had yet to sign CP3.

Um, yeah, exactly.  That deal was totally one-sided in our favor.
well if you don't like championships it was.

Fear of letting KG, Doc (and eventually Pierce) leave (or retire) without the Celtics getting at least one piece back.

Then you have Chris Paul who likes KG and Doc but who rumor has really wants to play with Dwight Howard.  I don't see a whole lot of leverage for anyone so maybe it is the Lakers that have some leverage here.

Lakers have alot to do with it.... Clippers are unlikely to persuade Lakers to give up their prize center to play in their backyard and be a thorn in their big toe.

Clippers are praying they can get all the Celtics assets FOR NOTHING  so they can keep CP3,   
, CP3 an't signing till this is done...... then they have to get Howard ......and they PRAY that Griffen and Bledsoe is enough to do the deal.   Thats why they are so adamant about not trading Bledsoe to Boston.  They'may need to give up picks and the kitchen sink to make the Mitch go for it. 

I think Mitch would rather send DH to Houston than Clippers even for less in return

Without DH , the Clippers even infused with all the Celtics still isn't enough to beat OKC or HEAT .

If I was Danny I'd just sit on KG and DOC ....he is being stupid ..... giving them away for basically nothing is doing nothing .  Might as well let the fan enjoy seeing KG in Boston one final year

Letting CP3 drag these GM's around by their nose is stupid.....Mitch is too old school.

Danny is a terrible negotiator. To go from Jordan/Bledsoe/2 #1's to Jordan/2 #1's/Terry to Jordan/1 #1... I'd rather that Garnett just retire than take this crap sandwich.
