Re: L.A. Clippers
[ QUOTE ]
Just a few short years ago, their starting lineup looked something like:
PG) Andre Miller
SG) Corey Maggette
SF) Lamar Odom
PF) Elton Brand
C) Michael Olowakandi
And they even had some depth if I remember correctly.
Of course they disappointed..as per usual with the Clippers.

Yeah, but that lineup is totally different. Maggette has gotten a lot better, he was a lot younger when A Miller was with the Clips. Olowakandi is terrible, and I'm convinced almost any Center is better than him, so Kaman is an upgrade. Elton Brand has gotten older, but he's is still the same player. Andre Miller just did not work with the Clippers, his style of play was not suited for that team in my opinion.
In the West, the Clippers will have to compete with some improved teams for a spot at a 6-8 seed, but they have the talent to make it.
