LA Clippers got the first draft pick this season, a young phenom named Blake Griffin. Griffin will grace the Clippers as a forward and will no doubt be a starter come next season. Griffin is a hard working young man fresh off the courts in Oklahoma, where he led the NCAA with 30 double doubles! Well Mr. Griffin is off to an excellent start in the NBA. He scored 27 points and had 12 rebounds last night in a summer league game against the LA Lakers. And get this....hope it doesn't cause that infamous Cali earthquake.....the Clippers were the boss of the Lakers and won the game 92 - 83! Don't panic Laker fans, this was a game of players off the bench and new to the teams, which is why they call it a summer league. But it is good news for the Clippers. It may also be good news if they can somehow swing acquiring Allen Iverson. Yes, Ivey is in talks with the Clippers, but it doesn't seem like the Clippers are exactly whispering sweet nothings in his ear. They want him to come off of the bench....WHAT?! Can beggars be THAT choosey? The Clippers can't seriously be expecting Allen Iverson to warm their bench. They need ALL the help they can get out there ON THE COURT. In addition, they are only offering him 5.8 million to embarrass himself and tarnish his previous career accimplishments by sititng on the bench for the LA Clippers.....Someone in the Clippers organization is drinking too many 40s. Nevertheless, I would love to see Iverson come to LA. I already planned on trying to go to some Clippers games, since I'm on a budget and they play some budget NBA ball. If they get Iverson, I'd be willing to pay 7 dollars for a ticket! *Chuckle*
