    1. Admit their mistake and sign UFA Hartenstein, who just pulled down 17 rebounds. 2. Find a PF who can get offensive boards, and not worry about if he can shoot 3's or not. 3. Get PG to take the same amount of salary under the max the way Kwahi did. 4. Look for deals at the trade deadline, all in, or rebuild, based upon the start of the season. 5. Only Sign Harden if he signs for under 20m.. anything more, let him find another home.

      A trade for John Collins is necessary to grab the power forward in question who can do all of those things you listed, but it would require either trading Mann or Powell + PJ Tucker and maybe a pick. To sign Hartenstein he’d also have to take a pay cut, which I’m not sure if he’d do after the season he had but he did say he was willing to before. Who knows? I’d also look at Kelly Oubre Jr to get at the backup wing position.

      Clippers negotiation powers are so upside-down r n that I'd consider letting a third of our roster go - including a former a MVP - just to get Hartenstein back. smdh@Larry Frank.

      Unless we sign a vet in the meantime, Kai should get at least 20 min of run in each preseason game.
      Here's hoping his TC is good and he gets a double-double (or three) in the pre-season so he can make the early regular season rotation.

    How would you guys feel about a Clippers roster constructed like this? I don’t think this team would be a favorite by any means to come out of the West but I do believe this improves the team by quite a bit from their current state. Athleticism, rebounding, and additional depth as the wing spot.
    PG - James Harden
    SG - Paul George
    SF - Kawhi Leonard
    PF - John Collins
    C - Ivica Zubac
    6th - Norman Powell
    7th - Russell Westbrook
    8th - Kelly Oubre Jr. (POA wing defender)
    9th - Andre Drummond (for rebound purposes, would’ve said Hartenstein but that’s unlikely)
    10th - Robert Covington (re-sign at a minimum deal, high defensive impact player with insurance at the 4 + small ball center)
    11th - Kris Dunn (backup PG outside of Russ)
    12th - Amir Coffey
    13th - Kai Jones (secondary backup center behind Drummond)
    14th - Brandon Boston Jr.
    15th - Kobe Brown
    (Two-Way) - Moussa Diabaté
    (Two-Way) - David Duke Jr.
    (Two-Way) - Jordan Miller
    How to get these pieces:
    Terance Mann, PJ Tucker, Bones Hyland + both 2024 draft picks for John Collins (+Kris Dunn in free agency for vet min)
    Let Mason Plumlee and Daniel Theis walk
    Sign Drummond with vet minimum (or MLE if we aren’t capped by second apron) & RoCo, Oubre Jr to vet minimums as well. If Oubre isn’t able to be signed to a deal, then just pick up RoCo to take his spot and sign Mo Bamba to fill in that extra roster spot as a big floor spacing center.
    Here’s the depth chart:
    Point Guard: James Harden, Russell Westbrook, Kris Dunn
    Shooting Guard: Paul George, Norman Powell, Amir Coffey, David Duke Jr.
    Small Forward: Kawhi Leonard, Kelly Oubre Jr, Brandon Boston Jr, Jordan Miller
    Power Forward: John Collins, Robert Covington, Kobe Brown
    Center: Ivica Zubac, Andre Drummond, Kai Jones, Moussa Diabaté

    • @23TDJ
      @23TDJ 4 месяца назад +1

      The Clippers aren't going to be able to swing that roster. Drummond and Oubre Jr. are going to get more than minimum.
      I'm a Bulls fan, and Drummond is going to get more because the league sees how size and athleticism are dominating in the playoffs, so someone is going to give him more than minimum.
      Same with Oubre Jr. He played really well with the Sixers, so he'll have more than one situor this off-season and get more than the minimum.
      Then John Collins is not the answer. They need their own PJ Washington or AG. They really need to build this team like that 2019 Raptors team. Young athletes around Kawhi and big frontcourt.

    • @xdarkxskullzx
      @xdarkxskullzx 4 месяца назад

      @@23TDJ Why wouldn’t Collins be the answer? He’s taller than both PJ & AG, weighs just as much, is 26 years old, just as athletic, is a better shooter than both guys, and is the best rebounder & scorer. The only thing he’s worse at is defense.
      As for the other guys, I’m skeptical about Oubre since he only took a pay cut with Philly because he felt like he had a legit shot to win a championship as a large piece on that team so I’m just guessing it would be the same scenario here, and with how often Kawhi & PG get hurt he’d have the opportunity to start a lot. As for Drummond, I think he’s said that he’ll accept any role on a team that wants him there and I’m sure he’ll get good offers but at the same time I don’t know how many teams would pay him above the MLE.

      @23TDJ 4 месяца назад

      @xdarkxskullzx I wouldn't trust the listed weights and heights. John Collins isn't taller than AG and definitely not as big, but you're right he is about the same size as PJ Washington. I thought he was smaller, so it could work out.
      The same reason Hartenstein is going to get paid is the same reason Drummmond will (obviously to a lesser extent). An athletic large quality backup big is essential, and teams are watching that in the playoffs.
      Oubre Jr may take a cut but that's a tough stretch for a guy that played that well in the playoffs. Also, if he wants to play for a contender, why leave the Sixers? He'll likely see them as a way better chance to compete with the healthier of the 2 best players and in the East.

      If Kai and Moussa can both get 20+min/gm of run in preseason, then it's a competition of who can get the double-double(s) - preferably with decent hands and footwork on perimeter D.
      But THAT would require Lue developing either of them in the reg season. Developing the Youngins' has not been his strong suit.

      they got hurt, their best player out, a familiar story all across the NBA. Bucks(Giannis, Lillard), knicks(Randle,Anunoby), philly(Embiid), celtics(porzingis), heat(butler) all had key inuries to top players and many were not old. Did all those predictors of clippers failure predict all the others above? I remember them saying the bucks were going to win it after the lillard trade. Many predicted Harden wouldnt fit with clippers, a cred busting prediction by clueless fans. Harden was not going to be a #1 option, but with PG's inconsistency he ended up top scorer. I dont like hardens age and putting him on a new contract is scary. But in reality Haliburton, Kyrie, booker, lillard tatum brown etc had multiple weak games, but others stepped up. PJ Washington scoring 20ppg+ very efficiently for the Mavs against the thunder or they are already fishing. When kyrie gets held to 9 points(2x) PJ went off big to win the games. Any one injury to a top 3 option pretty much kills the championship chances. Denver looks good to beat the TWolves now that their PG Conolly is out. So yes the Clippers like the bucks, 76ers, knicks, Heat all took injuries that likely killed their chances of a ring.
