Id say its a very piss poor squad. And im assuming you picked perhaps their best year from the 3 they made the playoffs with?

Lorenzen wright? Hes a career 8/6/1 guy. That was one of his better years. Pau is Pau. Posey? A Career 9 point, 5 rebound guy. Also had one of his best years in his career that year. Mike Miller wasnt anything near the player he is today then. Also was coming off of a big injury. Jason is a career 11 and 6 guy, which is what he got that year. I wouldnt say that is a starting 5 that would scare anyone. Heck bonzi was their 3rd leading scorer and he poured in 12 points off of the bench.

Lets not forget the injuries they had that year. Bonzi missed 24 games. Miller missed almost 30 games, Which Chocclolate missed 10 games, lorenzen missed 20 games. Yet that lineup managed to get 50 wins!!!

Lets compare that to the clipper team of the same year. Statisticall elton and pau almost a wash about the same amount in every major category. Lorenzen had a better year overall than kaman, not by much. Maggette id take over posey. Q Rich over mike miller. (neither of those even close). Offensively j will was better than jaric, but defensively the other way around. The bench, clippers had wilcox, simmons, House, predrag, keyon, barnes. I would say that elton for sur ehad more talent surrounding him (many injuries too like the grizz) than pau did. Sure, there are intangibles like coaching, etc. but the grizz having TWICE the number of wins as the clippers that year?
