John Collins signs with Detroit for 3 years, $51 million

Yep. I wonder if it's with their cap space, a sign and trade or Detroit will go over the cap to keep it's own free agents and it becomes an MLE signing. And if it's a sign and trade, what do the Clips get in return?

Big Trade:

Jaylen Brown for PG

There were picks thrown in but it's still not nearly enough. Not sure what Boston is thinking

I think after the PG to Clippers and Rudy Gobert to Minnesota trades, the league saw the effect of giving up 5 draft picks for a player, so they have learned that 2-3 picks are a reasonable ask while 5 is just catastrophic.

Right but in that case, there should be a player or prospect thrown in to even things out a bit. At the end of the day, a washed up a PG and two first rounders just seems low for an MVP candidate at the top of his game

Absolutely agree. First of all, they should have tried to keep Brown. Brown and Tatum won a championship together, and in my opinion, the spark that lit that fire was Brown simply saying, "This was my favorite year in my career." The fans and front office took it as Brown not caring about winning. I do agree with the sentiment that Brown does seem to want to have his "own team." However, you're right that it was a garbage package. They could have gotten more.

Meanwhile, Philly not only got the better player but maxed out their full level MLE by splitting it between Dean Wade and Anfernee Simons. $9 million for Wade and $6 million for Simons is great value and fills need at starting 4 and backup 1

Well, the media is giving Boston a proper a$$chewing. It makes me feel a little better as Boston was always touted as one of the most saavy front offices. This latest trade is a true fleece, and for once it's not the Clippers on the receiving end of a bad trade deal.

I believe there was something went on between Brown and Celtics and they ended up trading him. I believe this is the worst trade of this season and Celtics just sold him at a very low price.

PG, most likely, won’t do much and I believe one of the two first rounders Celtics got could be just a swap that potentially could be useless.

Philly is the biggest winner in this offseason as they nabbed Simons for a low price as a FA as well.

Although if they want to fire Brad Stevens, I'd have no problem with the Clips hiring him

And he fills a need at off guard since Grimes went to the L word. I called him a lead guard and a "1" earlier in this thread but he'll be taking over the backup 2 spot since Philon will be the backup 1. Great steal for Philly in the draft and great maximization of the MLE with Wade and Simons

Yes, it was a relatively low price.

Jordan Miller back on a 3 year, $15.3 million deal

Great news!

Believe it or not, he is the longest tenured clipper on the roster! Wow!

We need lot of effort by the teammates in production and in building chemistry.

A good leader in the clubhouse is critical too.

Hope we make some noise + nurture the talent. Otherwise, it will be a long season.

Rui Hachimura added

Good offensive player, but not a great deal of defensive contribution from him. We are essentially placing a big burden on Kris Dunn and Derick Jones Jr. to anchor the defense. These two aren't exactly good offensive players either, so I'm a little confused about the overall fit here with this team. Don't get me wrong, Brandon Ingram and Rui Hachimura are decent offensive contributors, but we are going to be very deficient on defense. Perhaps the front office has a lot more moves on the horizon.

Hey all, I heard we got a $16 mill trade exception from the Collins trade, is this correct?

It is because the Clips brought nobody back in return. You would think that an easy way to get Kuminga would be to do an S & T with Atlanta but I don't think you can slot sign and traded players into cap exceptions although I could be wrong

I think it all comes down to who they value more, Kuminga or Mathurin? One gets $!5 million, the other has to look elsewhere for a home although I guess they could slot the other into the room exception. Maybe $15 million for Kuminga and then renounce Mathurin but re-sign him to the room exception of $9 million

The KL trade with Toronto is not officially announced yet as there is a buzz in the social media that the Clippers might be trying to reroute Ingram and try to bring someone like Sabonis or Watson.

He was not their first choice in that trade so it is interesting what comes out of this.

I hope the FO should consider the health and defense playing capability of whoever they are trying to bring in.

Yeah, agreed. We have too many offensive first players: Ingram, Garland, Mathurin, etc.

The plot thickens. The front office is really busy. I like it. I just hate that there is so much competition for Watson. The Nuggets seem to have all the leverage with him. I just hope we don't give away anything more than one 2nd round pick for him and salary cap filler.
