pretty optimistic of the clippers to think theyre getting a 1st rounder from someone for cassell. Not sure who would do something like that.

Maybe phoenix if its true they do have a trade exception, or if they have another deal they want to get rid of. Now that they have shaq, they might not be playing as high tempo as before, and sam would be fine in that system. plus sam chucks it with the best of them, and danotni always has given his players a green light

I know usually teams dont trade within the division, but clippers know theyre not going to do anything this year...its not like cassell is going to be a big force for phoenix for years to come, and a 1st rounder is very nice. Not to mention every year phoenix gives away their first rounders it seems for nothing due to salary cap concerns.
