IF true, truly dissapointment for Clips Nation
Ryan Gomes and Randy Foye…great way to start out Free Agency.
This is going to be my team, and we're going to rise together.

yes this is a sad day in the nation
First we get a coach (it seems the majority of the nation wanted casey)we didnt want now we have gotten players we really didnt want. The players the nation wanted they have not gotten. I understand you cant always get what you want. But hell i would have taken beasley now i just hope we try to get TMAC or somebody with playoff experience.
Somebody do the math for me
Miami had to get rid of Beasley to make things work. How can they then afford Miller, who’s evidently more expensive? Did somebody agree to take less money?
Miami still doesn’t have a center.

I can play center on that team
and they would still make it to the finals next year! Unbelievable starting four!!! Lebron screwed us big time (and all the other sucker teams that held off making moves thinking they might land him). I guess we continue to “build” for another decade.

Good thank you Miami and The Sell Outs
Everything starts out New, Gets Old and Dies or is Destroyed.
They got rid of beasley.
Traded to MInnesota for future 1st rounded.
Still no confirmation.
Jalen is just tweetting.
It's legit. Stein, RealGM, Chad Ford are all confirming it.

How? Where's the math?
"i know huh........freakin clippers man.....its like a wild ride rooting for this team....gotta love em....(sometimes) lol" In GrIfFin We TrUsT
They traded Beasley for pure cap space and future 1st round pick swap.
Then Wade, LeBron & Bosh all took a pay cut of 800K-1M or something like that.
Rumors are that Shaq is trying to hop aboard. I wouldn’t be surprised if McGrady tried to get in on it as well.

AAAAARGGGHHH!!!!
I have to admit. I think this Miami heat thing is hurting basketball. Its douchebaggery, plain and simple.
oooooooh! i wonder who is going to win this year?

post-script
I’m not saying its unfair.. they had the money and those players wanted to sign.. it just sucks. I don’t want to watch 5 seasons of 29 teams competing for 2nd place.

Eh
Miami still got a lot of work to do. The Lakers, Celtics and Magic are still very good teams. The Thunder might move into the discussion soon too.
FA in 2010.
Guess that whole tax-free state thing is a real sales pitch
I often quote myself. It adds spice to my conversation

Yep
The Texas teams can use that to their advantage too. California has a hefty one of 10.3% if you make over a million dollars (which most players do).
Here’s a list of states with no state income tax.

things fall apart...
who is the leader of this team…all i see is bad news for lbj in this move… they’re damned if they’re bounced from playoffs, they’re damned if they win it all….
also, I think the owners will have something to say about the whole players colluding and teams not being able to do so in the next talks…
Roger Sterling: To my knees, Don. They're bringing to my knees!"
so they come out with 2 superstars, a soft PF and a roll player in Miller?
I still dont see them beating Orlando
boston is still the team to beat in the east
their defense is just too good to shrug off
Even the Clippers, those longtime losers, thought they could be a player this summer.
You guys are crazy.
This team is a wrecking crew, it’s going to be a cakewalk to the finals, probably for the next
5-7 years.
I've got nothing.
I wouldn't say so
they still need to put the rest of the team together, and they still have no center.
LeBron or Bust !!!!
I believe
they got Beasley for a 2011 second round pick, and the Heat / T’Wolves are going to swap first rounders sometime in the future.

According to Lisa they could push that first round pick as far as 7 years from now
LeBron or Bust !!!!
Well after Beasley's career is over
Minnesota hasn’t learned much since they gave us their pick in the Cassell/Jaric trade. I’m sure they don’t think they will be terrible forever, but who knows?
Lakers still have advantage upfront
I question whether Miami will be big enough and tough enough to win it all. I’ve always considered Bosh soft and whether he can step forward in the playoffs is an open question. The pressure on Bosh and LBJ will be immense. They’re now expected to cruise and if they don’t watch out. The Lakers and other teams with 2 bigs will beat them up under the boards and Artest will have fun guarding LeBron, Wade or whoever. There are a number of experts who questioned how well LBJ and DWade would play together. Next season we will find out. Now I have two teams, one per conference, to root against. I hope like hell that we don’t have a Lakers-Heat finals next year.
