who's bench do you like better..
players #6 - #10
between the Lakers and Clippers.

IMO- Clips starting line up blows away the Lakers.
I'm just concerned about this bench.
SLivingston
QRoss
ZRebraca
CWilcox
Singleton...

make me feel better about this.
Or should i start to hit the panic button now that the crickets are clickking and it doesn't appear that Baylor, Roeser and Dunleavy are going to make anymore important roster moves. Are they just penciling in the NBDL guys to fill the roster spots.

Korolev (Yarik) and Schortsanitis (Baby Shaq) are just going to be NBDL guys if they make the journey to the NBA.

Our bench will be ok. Have you looked at the Lakers Bench? Its horrible. We will be fine.

qrichfan...
i know you're heart is in NY now... but come on..
Brunson and Moore ???
are you serious?
Sonics picked these guys up quick.

I thought the Clips might go after Gerald W. or JKapono (where's that BruinFan).

my heart in NY? nah . . . i meant a Brunson and a Moore as 2 journeymen who will come in and make an impact of the bench, not them 2 in particular

not to fear,hipclip...clipper's bench clearly better than the lakers in all positions...as for kapono, i'd love to have him as another 3pt threat, altho my first choice bruin choice is already gone (watson)...maybe we can steal dijon (i think i'm kiddin)

14HipClip

kapt clipper... watson was out of the price range for Roeser... not even a chance for him. I think the Clips have a chance for Kapono if Dunleavy thinks he'll play defense. The price is right.

qrichfan... you scare me. if you were building this team... i might become a laker fan.
don't get traded again for a saavy veteran. Brunson and Moore are journeymen at best and now they are well paid. The Clips didn't even try to keep Brunson or Moore. That kind of tells me that they want to get guys on the cheap. They'll go with some unknown guys that play defense. Singleton fits that bill. QRoss fits that bill... name me some guys that you think are journeymen that fit your bill.

I'm not getting scared yet... but i use the Fakers as a measuring stick because no one else in Los Angeles even talks clipper hoops until they play the fakers.
The fakers move radio stations to kLAC and they change the call letters.. the Clips should have their games broadcast over kLAC.. 1150 or whatever they get next season...Sterling just doesn't care about positive publicity. Clippers on kLAC 1150 radio.

anyway... i'm not scared about our bench... as long as those dieticians and physical therapist and strength guys for the clips can keep these guys healthy.

I think with this starting line up and the way Dunleavy rotates his guys we should be in great shape. I still say the Clips need to start the season 8-2 out of the gate.

The Lakers bench includes:

Bynum
Slava
Smush
Bobbit
Wafer
Walton
George
Jones

Thats the worse bench in the league. Lets stop comparing ourselves to the Lakers. We are shooting our goals too low. We are much better than our cross town rival. We need to get a 5-7 seed so we dont have to play the Spurs 1st rd.

Kapt Clipper

i totally agree, dafranchise...the only player i would fear and take from the laker bench is luke!...i hope we make the playoffs at ANY seed!

+CrossOver+

Bring Korolev over, what team stashes a lotto pick ... don't have much depth at SF, Singleton sounds like a tweener forward. You know if they don't sign Korolev and Maggs gets hurt they'll just pick up some scrub. Everybody'll be thinking ... typical clippers

Seriously, you guys need to quit worrying about the lakers, i'd rather compare them to the rockets or sonics or someone who'll actually make the playoffs.

The clippers will never get anywhere if they're only trying to compete with the lakers.

Clippers at this point have nothing to fear of the Lakers bench.. Or lack of a bench.

Although I think Wafer is going to be a sleeper this season. I dont expect to see Bynum getting much if any play time at all. Which means theres no decent front court backup for the Lakers.. They have been so concerned with cap space in 2007, that they havent done anything worth while this offseason so far in my opinion. Although Brown could be a pleasent surprise for them.. I'm still skeptical.

Comparing the Clippers to the sonics sounds fair... Comparing them to the Rockets is pretty funny though.
