Fox Sports: Griffin will turn Clippers around
Pretty good analysis by Kevin Hench (pretty good for a national writer, anyway). Believes the Clippers young nucleus of Griffin, Gordon and Thornton is as good as any, and that they will turn the franchise around within three years.

thanks
Great article, and glad to see someone saying something positive besides, “Clippers surprisingly didn’t mess up in this draft.” I’m excited for this upcoming year, especially if we can get a good deal for one of our three big guys.

Not bad
Good perspective on things.
I’m still waiting around for the first mention of DeAndre Jordan, and getting a bit impatient. Why not throw DJ’s name in there with Gordon and Thornton as part of the young nucleus?
Because nobody in the national media has talked about it, that’s why.

I consider both DJ and Mike Taylor part of the young nucleus
I guess they are considered to be very raw.

They're still wild cards
Think DJ is more highly thought of just because his tools are so rare and has such a vibe about him. It’s great that Blake is friends with DJ, and that Blake should be able to befriend EJ better than DJ & MT did. Blake could very well be the great equalizer amongst the youth movement, and obviously should be the vocal leader. No doubt Griffin & EJ will be the role models on the court.

That comment section was brutal.
Clipper hatred is baffling, not unlike Bush Derangement Syndrome.
