Great trade for the Clippers. Saves them $6.7m this season and relieves the clump at PF/C.
Richardson will come off the bench for the Clippers and give them a decent 10-15mpg.

This trade also gives the Clippers about $21M in cap space in 2010. With Baron Davis, Eric Gordon, Al Thornton, Blake Griffin, Chris Kaman, Mike Taylor, DeAndre Jordan and their 2010 Pick onboard...will the Clippers be a viable option for some big FA names?
I'd say that if Blake Griffin looks like a 20/10 player and Baron Davis regains his form - it's possible.

Z Bo for Q Rich straight up? Z Bo makes 16 mil andQ Rich makes 9.3 mil
I think there is another player or draft picks coming from Memphis. If it is Buckner, he has a player option for 2010 at 4.2 mil which I am sure he will exercise. That will become our expiring contract.
I like this trade, although I think we can do better than Q Rich. It free up the starting PF spot for Griffin and give us more flexibility in 2010. I hope we have more trades coming to get rid of Thornton, Mardy Collins, Kaman or Baron Davis.
amazing trade for the clippers. i can't believe they found someone dumb enough to take zach off their hands and they didn't even have to take a bad contract in return.
Sure you would. But he's better than any option at the forward position for Memphis and he's been on good behavior on his last two teams. 18/8 type players dont grow on trees.

who cares if they don't grow on trees? he doesn't play defense, isn't that efficient of a scorer, is a complete blackhole, and has one of the lowest basketball iqs in the game.
and he's been on good behavior? what about his altercation with amundson and his drunk driving arrest?
The first half of your post sounds like a Carlos Boozer description, but hey, no one complains about that guy's game even though both are eerily similar.
As for part deux of your post, teammates fighting arent anything new, and I didnt know of the drunk driving bit, still nothing to crucify him for.

boozer has been a much more efficient scorer than zach while also being less of a blackhole and without the mind blowing dumb plays that come from randolph. so i don't think that exactly works.
amundson wasn't his teammate, he was on the suns. randolph was ejected and suspended two games for it.
Z-bo was 25th in the league in PER, Carlos is about 60 something. Now if PER measures how efficient players are offensively, how the heck is Carlos a more efficient player?
Z-bo eFG% 49.4 TS% 53.1
Boozer eFG% 49.0 TS% 52.3
Z-bo is also the much better FT shooter and 3pt shooter, and did I mention he averaged 20/10 last year. Dude get your facts straight.

you realize that boozer only played in 37 games and was obviously not 100% when he came back at the end of the year, right? try looking at some healthy numbers and they blow zach's out of the water.
Z-Bo Dealt To Memphis?
