Nice pick up. Good vet pg with championship experience to go with their young studs. The Clips have never lacked for talent, but they have not had the vet leadership that gets wins. This is a very good move for them, and a great opportunity for Billups. If he complains about this, he is foolish.

:championship: is he going to coach as well?

Sam Cassel basically did.

Chauncey
Eric Gordon
Caron Butler
Blake Griffin
DeAndre Jordan

with a bench of Mo Williams and Kaman is actually an incredibly well rounded club with great young talent and good veterans leadership.

that team should be pretty fun to watch this year.

So are they out of the Chris Paul sweepstakes? However, the media is still writing about this is an option for Paul.

No, I think their plan is for Chancey to be the backup pg. They still want Paul.

But is Chauncey okay with this? If he were, this would make the PG position exceptionally strong.

Even without Paul, Chauncey definitely makes them a top 3 team in the west I think.

Billups
Gordon
Caron Butler
Blake
Kaman/Jordan

Nice mix of youth/athleticism/veteran presence/defensive presence on that team.

They have some nice depth too. This might be a better team than the NY team that Billups is upset at leaving.
