Not an official rumor, but Dwight Howard is supposedly healthy and ready to play.   

Forgot about him, interesting to think about. Does he have anything left? Did he finally accept that he is not the Magic Howard anymore? If he understands that he is now similar to Bismack Byombo and not Hakeem Olajuwon, then he may actually help a team and not cause locker room problems

The Clippers have both been better run and better coached since Doc lost his front office role.

Most definitely.  Both jobs are too important and too time consuming to have a single person do both.

you mean like rondo, allen, smart, and jefferson? and who, may i ask, among the nba GMs has been given a range of picks in the bottom/worst half of the draft and selected as many players who actually made the nba?

ainge has a pretty solid to good record of drafting given the location of the picks.

Matt Thomas is a great shooter.  He played at Iowa State in college.  Glad to see he stuck it out and now found his way into the NBA.  There is always room for guys that hustle and shoot the 3 really well.
