I wonder if all this is coincidence and Clippers just wanted have Mann start the 1st home game so fans can appreciate him and then trade him after…. Like after the game or tomorrow morning.

One of the few times in life you don't want to get a Hardon. Would also go thumbs down on James. Clippers rarely do the right thing, so we'll see wot happens. You also don't want one when Donald Sterling is watching in the locker room.

"According to Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports, the Sixers learned that the Clippers included Terance Mann in the package they put together in their attempt to swing a trade for Jrue Holiday, who has since then been moved by the Portland Trail Blazers to the Boston Celtics. Thus, the Philadelphia front office believe that they're well within their rights to ask for Mann if the Clippers have shown willingness to include him in a deal for an All-Star-caliber point guard."

I don't see how he'd be happy on a team with George,Leonard, Westbrook. He wouldn't the ball as often as he'd want.
If he was upset about not making the All-Star team last year, he'd be upset this year too.

If he was upset about not making the All-Star team last year, he'd be upset this year too. I think he could fit ok with Goerge and Kawhi, but yeah with Westbrook too makes it tough. Could be part of the reason why we're hesitant to pull the trigger.

Could be part of the reason why we're hesitant to pull the trigger. Yeah, too many other ball handlers. He's not going to like his role.
Also, we don't know exactly what he didn't like about Brooklyn. But perhaps he was not happy with his role there either.
Philadelphia, where his only competition is Maxey, would seem like a better fit, as far as his role.
Do we even know what he doesn't like about Philadelphia? The GM shouldn't matter THAT much. And if you look at their history, Morey did whatever Harden wanted, when they were in Houston.
"Get rid of Chris Paul because he's too mean? Ok sure James."

I think he was mostly ok with Philly, but they're not giving him a max extension after he took a bit less than he could have the year before. I'm sure part of the reason he wasn't happy about not making the all star team is he may have thought it was lowering his perceived value. If he gets the max extension, he probably wouldn't care as much about his role. Westbrook on the other hand def wouldn't be happy as I'm sure he's also trying to increase his value.

You also don't want one when Donald Sterling is watching in the locker room. not sure who would bother knowing about his current livelihood (“never use ‘hood’ in a sentence around me or be fired!”), but he’s likely super paranoid nowadays about people potentially taping him: “you’re not recording me, correct? Doesn’t matter now my media attention isn’t currently where I need it to be. Okay go ahead and tape release to tmz. I’ll even pay you. Where was I? Oh, yes, I vividly remember one player noticeably excited by my evening’s female tight clothing flirtatious companion who had accompanied me per my insistence and hundred dollar bill flashes to the arena’s base-room cold lockers. We never offered heated showers for players not because of any modern perceived health benefits. Most of the team were busy washing their own uniforms in the coin operated laundry machines though one was still lathering himself. Can’t remember or may have never contemplated learning his name. In freedom of ownership I skipped knowing any of them though the strawberry haired one caused a memorable scene, flashing a pretend dunk with an hors d oeuvre, at my must-attend-unless-you-want-to-be-fired annual Malibu ‘White Party’. Anyway, even though cold he had a look of heat and a hardon like a less amber redwood tree reaching towards the sky. We watched till it subsided and left without saying anything to him. Almost clapped, but then he would have felt validated and may have performed worse next game not that ever cared about the team’s defeats. He’d ask for more money next contract.”.

I think you combined every story we've known about him. If I recall correctly, even though he set the theme of the "White Party", he would appear dressed in non white clothing. How dumb. It's hard enough to get a lot of people to adhere to a themed party. Then he disrespects the effort they took to stick to his theme, by not adhering to it. I guess he thinks it will make for funny photos with him. Well the pictures might not be that funny, if everyone has grimaces and eye rolls. www.huffpost.com/entry/blake-griffin-white-party_n_6060696

Thank You, God, For That Doc Interview. And While You're On A Roll, How About A New Bike? (That Retro Bonneville Would Be Great). Is Triumph your preferred brand, over Honda, Suzuki, Harley Davidson, Ducati, Kawasaki?

Is Triumph your preferred brand, over Honda, Suzuki, Harley Davidson, Ducati, Kawasaki? My last bike was a Triumph Daytona 955i. Before that a Honda and a Slozuki. Ridden most of them. Have ridden different Ducatis and they're viscerally great but too small for me.

Do you have a location that you think is the most run to ride?
