The Goods Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 Watching Blake Griffin ascend the stage Thursday night at the NBA Draft, don a Los Angeles Clippers hat, shake David Stern’s hand and offer a wondrous smile to the folks in attendance and watching at home, seasoned NBA observers had to think: does this boy have any idea what he’s in for? It isn’t just the fact that he is now an LA Clipper. That was pretty much a foregone conclusion after the lottery. Even the Clippers aren’t going to trade away the No. 1 pick in a draft that is, well, one player deep. But throw in the fact that Griffin is the No. 1 overall pick and a Clipper and that is a combustible mix, the draft equivalent of hooking Clippers owner Donald Sterling up to a lie detector machine. You are just waiting for everything to explode. Full Story: http://blogs.hoopshype.com/blogs/may/2009/06/26/dont-hold-out-hope/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldChili Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 I hope the Clippers can stay healthy and at least try to contend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm with you. I really hope that they can stay healthy and have a good season. I would hate to see them end up like they did last year, especially since they got Blake Griffin.

OldChili Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 Last season was horrible... especially that buzzer beating three against the Nets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
