B-Diddy to the Clippers! Irrelevance is relevant once again.

While I promised, and will deliver, my 2008 NBA Draft Losers today, I had to first stop and comment on Baron Davis to the Clippers.

 

I love the move! Not only am I a big Baron Davis fan, but I am also a big Elton Brand fan. Given the opportunity for Brand to have a couple of running mates, his professionalism, leadership and post-game could easily bring a title to LA. Not yet, but Davis, Chris Kaman, Cat Mobley and Brand is a decent start. Al Thorton could be the future at the Small Forward position, and maybe #1 draft pick Eric Gordon is the man to take this team over the top at the 2.

Also, I love seeing unselfish NBA players. B-Diddy turned down $18 million next year for $13 million with the Clippers, while Elton Brand will go from a no-brainer max out player to an unselfish team player by taking $10 million less to facilitate the deal. And, let's not forget Donald Sterling first ever BIG free agent signing!!! Way to go old chap! The Clippers are now a legitimate playoff team and one BIG piece from contention...

 

Of course this is with my one big caveat- health abiding...
