Sam Cassell Says The Clippers are Natural-Born Losers
Elton BrandThe Boston Herald had a piece yesterday focusing on some of the C’s vets and the respective paths they’ve taken to get to this point. In it, Sam Cassell threw one of his old teams under the bus. “I got traded to a losing franchise,” Cassell said, talking about going from the Wolves to the Clippers in ‘05. “It’s the winning attitude and the winning atmosphere that I remember from being with Houston. They have it here (Boston), and it’s something that starts in training camp, September and October, with 15 or 20 guys saying, ‘This is our goal,’ and some teams don’t have that goal.” Cassell clarified that the Wolves weren’t one of those losing-attitude squads, although we’re not sure if that’s really how he feels or he just doesn’t want to piss off Kevin Garnett. We’re not saying the Clips are ideal — we remember going to a Knicks/Clippers game at MSG last year when Sam was still with the squad, and there was a noticeable vibe in the locker room that suggested no one liked each other — but they did make the playoffs in Cassell’s first year there and barely missed the postseason the following year before it all fell apart this year … Is Baron Davis going to be with the Warriors next season? His coach isn’t worried. Asked about Baron possibly opting out, Don Nelson told the Press Democrat, “Of course he’s coming back. He has one year left at $17 million. That’ll do it.” … Most of the Dime crew are huge Boom Dizzle fans, but yesterday on DimeMag.com, one of our writers aired out Baron (and Rasheed Wallace) for being just as soft and non-clutch as Vince Carter. Are Baron and ‘Sheed two of the League’s Da Vinci Code players? … Another guy who’s expected to opt out this summer is Gilbert Arenas. Given his knee injury and free agent stock, is there any chance at all Gil goes out for Team USA? Even if he was cleared to play, we gotta think there’s no chance you see him in Beijing. Although an Arenas blog from the Olympics would have been fantastic … And in the name of not wasting time, will Adam Morrison and Luke Ridnour show up for tryouts this summer? They are in the USA program, you know … Who is Kobe gonna guard when Celtics/Lakers tips off on Thursday? We looked at the benefits of having Mamba stick Ray Allen, Paul Pierce or Rajon Rondo … We’re not gonna lie: pretty much the entire Dime office stopped in its tracks as we watched Monday’s “SportsCenter” feature on the high school hoop team in South Carolina where the coach — a fireman in his day job — was killed in the line of duty before the season. When the team got to the state championship game, momentarily thought they’d lost on a 3/4-court buzzer beater, but then the shot was waved off, there may or may not have been some tissues being used over here. Did anyone else think, however, that the other team might have gotten screwed? The refs didn’t review the shot on replay; they initially counted it, then talked about it, then changed their minds. With all the cameras ESPN had in the building (they’d caught wind of the story beforehand and had their documentary crew there), they never bothered to show a legit replay to determine if the kid got the shot off or not … In yesterday’s Smack we talked about what the Pistons have to do to get over the conference finals hump. Detroit News columnist Rob Parker (one of the regulars on ESPN’s “1st and 10″ argument show) addressed the topic in Monday’s paper: “You get the feeling that Dumars will, indeed, break up the core group this time around. There’s a chance that one, maybe two pieces, will be different in the starting lineup.” We’ve already been over the Rasheed issues. And although it seems premature to say Tayshaun Prince is slipping, he really hasn’t been as good these last two years as he was during the time when Ben Wallace was in Detroit. Prince is only 28, but he might be aging in dog years; he’s played over 500 games in the past five years, not missing a single regular season contest after his rookie year and being there for the Pistons’ usual deep playoff runs. Should the Pistons look at trading him while he still has a lot of value? … The Magic gave GM Otis Smith a contract extension. Good move? Despite resume blemishes like drafting Fran Vasquez and J.J. Redick, making Rashard Lewis the highest-paid third-fiddle in NBA history, and presiding over the whole Billy Donovan fiasco, Smith has put together a roster that should contend in the East for the foreseeable future. And in case you’re wondering, Smith was not involved when Dwight Howard was drafted or when Hedo Turkoglu was signed … DerMarr Johnson’s DWI arrest over the weekend has to mean he’s a wrap with the Spurs. They don’t put up with the kind of stuff (not since Dennis Rodman), and it’s not like they need DerMarr — he played so few games for them that his NBA.com bio picture is still one from when he played for the Nuggets … Eddy Curry (knee) has been cleared to begin offseason workouts. That doesn’t mean he’s actually going to work out or anything. It just means he can if he wants to. Austin suggested the Knicks deal with Curry the same way the Bulls should have dealt with Mike Sweetney before he ate himself out of the League: “Order his uniform in a size small enough that it fits him super-tight, and refuse to go any bigger. If he asks for a bigger uniform, give him the same size but mark it as if it’s bigger. Eventually he’ll get the message and get tired of being laughed at for spilling out of his uni. Embarrass him into losing the weight.” … Speaking of dropping pounds, Kevin Love told reporters at the Pre-Draft Camp’s media day that part of his weight-loss regimen involves giving up chocolate milk. “The only thing I had to give up was my chocolate milk fetish,” K-Love said. “I think everyone has their one thing, and chocolate milk was probably it for me.” … Do you think Love will be a good pro? During the college season he and Tyler Hansbrough were probably the two most argued-about pro prospects in the country. Tell us how good (or bad) you think Love will be in the comments … On HighSchoolHoop.com yesterday we introduced you to the kid who’s already being called the next Derrick Rose: North Carolina-bred rising senior PG John Wall … One good thing about the Finals not being on TNT is that we don’t have to see anymore “House of Payne” commercials. Serious question: Has there ever been a show advertised more than “House of Payne”? Actually, scratch that; Has there ever been ANYTHING advertised more than “House of Payne”? Given the percentage of network ad time devoted to in-house ads, does TBS even make any money from it? It’s really ridiculous … We’re out like Curry’s offseason workout …

1st and the Clippers do have a negative mentality and overachieved that one year. This year injuries screwed them but its not like they really wanted to fight through. They all had the mentality of lets wait and see. Many of those free agents arent gonna get what they think they deserve and that because many of them dont deserve what they think they do. Hmm well he got Rashard and for what Rashard is capable of it wasnt that ridiculous a signing, but still damn. Im tired of hearin anything Eddy Curry related, please stop. When you have kids like Kevin Love who were chunky and started workin like beasts to get into shape I have to hear about how this fatass wont workout? naw im not for that. The Pistons are a team that I hate but the league has to have because they make the other teams better. Personally I think that their the most boring team in the league and as proof Im gonna use that All star game as an example. The year the 4 of them got put in at the same time all but killed the game while bringin the East back. I hope Dumars regrets not taking Melo now, cause in Detroit he would have learned D and been a BEAST. O well, what could have been

nice marvel universe comment, marcus, but the blob was the world’s best defender. On the flip side, I would love to see him in Cleveland actually scoring in the post. Not as much as I’d love to see Zach there of course.
Yeah, I almost cried too when watching that high school ish, but, as an official, one of the backboard lights went off before the other one. Watch it again. That’s what happened. In 3 man, one or two officials caught that while one was watching the clock and the release, the discussion had to have been about the clock, the lights, and whether or not it was a malfunction.

I watched that peice on the coach from South Carolina and I ain’t gone lie, that was a touching story. Dude built the kids up from middle school and loved them like his own. You don’t see that too much anymore. We always see the story peices of kids being molested and beaten and killed and it was refreshing to see something positive for a change.
would I trade prince? Probably not, but I would do whatever I had to do to get rid of sheed which wouldn’t be too hard considering he has an expiring contract.
@Youngfed
I agree with you on that sam cassell comment homey, but we all know the clippers are losers too. But still you right about Sam cassell, add gary payton too that list too.

Talk crazy to a cat you can’t see and never will see. So normally I won’t do it unless we just being funny.
You ain’t like the Usher album? I thought most of it was on point, he touched on a lot of stuff I relate to, like I’m bout to get married, and it’s HARD not to be out here cheating, especially when a girl is throwing her booty all in your face every 3 seconds, so I dig the album, he had some real songs on there.
@Washington the frog
You know EVERYBODY loves Perry tyler, but I think dude feeds stereotypes and I really feel dude is a bad writer. It upsets me that a show like (The Wire), can’t get no love, but (House of Payne), is getting mad love. Like Method Man say, “This some shameless sh*t”! LOL!!

to combine the 2 most hated things on this site, Eddy Curry “looks like he should be floatin’ ova the top a parade or somethin.” nope, still not funny…
though that idea of a too-small jersey for ECity is HILARIOUS. I’d kill to see that…
and TNT says The Closer is the top rated cable program of all time too. You know what they say, you can make statistics say just about anything, but even statistics can’t be bent that much. The Closer and House of Payne? something don’t smell right…
Washington Frog, I caught that too. Reggie Miller used to kill me when he did his “very funny” line, cuz you could always tell he was only saying it cuz they kept telling him he had to or he was fired.
Adam Morrison and Luke Ridnour – the modern day Christian Laettner.
If the Pistons are smart, they won’t trade Tayshaun. Youngfed hit it right on the head. He busts his @$$ every game. He doesn’t need to drop 20ppg, that’s what the other guys are for. Just D up and go hard and he sure as hell does that.

and Cassell needs to STFU. We all know he’s right about the Clippers, but they still paid him and then bought him out to allow him to come suck on the Celtics. Just relax, enjoy the ride, and STFU until you’ve actually contributed more than 2 points per series.

let’s not forget the Pau Gasol trade. ANYTHING is possible. The Heat medical staff may know something about Wade that we don’t? And maybe RIley is just that in love with Rose? Who knows, we’ve seen dumber things. Aint we still in Iraq? LOL!!!
June 3rd, 2008 at 12:58 pm
Celts Fan says:
haha true Chuck, but DWade ALONE should be able to get that pick. You absolutely don’t deal DWade AND the #2 pick unless you’re getting back a PROVEN, top player who’s still in his mid 20s. DWade and the #2 just to move up to #1 is insane. DWade (and maybe a future #1) to move up to #1 and have both of the top 2 picks may make sense, or the #2 pick and a lottery-protected future #1 would also make sense, but the #2 and DWade just to move up 1 spot would be pure insanity.
June 3rd, 2008 at 1:01 pm
Chuck...Haters come in all fashions and forms so bear arms says:
Celts
Riley is purely insane! LOL!!
I mean, the only way I see them trading Wade is if the medical staff knows something we don’t.
I do know that Riley is on love with rose. and you never know the heat may be trying to clear cap space for another player or something or trying to restructure the team, I mean I don’t know, but Wade is even hearing the rumors and they have to start from somewhere?

I could that Delorean fam, I go back and rig the votes so nobody named Bush ever got in office
Riles is losing his mind, I’d go for Rose too if I’m but damn I wouldn’t trade Flash in the process
Really what chips do the Bulls posses that would make you trade D-Wade unless
Heinrich and the #1 pick, with an expiring contract for
D-Wade, #2
Heat take Beasley and have Kirk run the point

I like that Memphis trade Pau is a #2 or #3 option so Memphis wasn’t going to get anywhere with him plus they are clearing cap space I also think they are still looking for a new owner so it makes sense. But Riley is bonkers I still can’t remember what they got for Shaq can someone refresh my memory?

Farmer also had a high vertical.
It still no way I would trade D.Wade and the #2 for the #1. If Wade is about to retire I will do it, but that is the only way. I guess Riley have been hanging out with Chris Wallace. If they want the #1 bad atleast get Deng or Gordon out of the deal to along with the #1. I still would not do the trade if I’m Miami though.

Wade hasn’t played a full season in his career. If they trade wade, I’m telling you, the medical staff knows something about this guy that we don’t. That has to be it. Riley has 5 rings. Dude knows ball and he knows players, I doubt he would ship off Wade unless he knew, long term that Wade wasn’t gonna work out, and if Riley was smart, he would make them take Mark blount’s bloated contract along with a deal like that. In return Gordon , the #1 pick and drew gooden(for the expiring contract), If you are going to give up your best player, at least get rid of the players you don’t want, and buy some cap space!

You could be right about his injury, but Wade injury would have to be like Penny or Grant Hill before I trade him for the #1. The only thing that seems kind of crazy is Riles trying to go after a 29yo Elton Brand when he is coming off major surgery.
I guess trading Wade is the gamble Riles is willing to take to get Rose. If they do trade Wade, Riles better be right because I will not want to see a healthy Wade on Chicago with Deng and Beasley.

Honestly, unless DWade had a leg amputated, they should keep him and draft whoever’s left at #2 (or, if they honestly don’t like Beasley – dumb, but Riley knows more than I do I guess… – trade down a slot w/ the TWolves, pick up another guy, maybe Corey Brewer? and draft OJ Mayo there) Regardless, they should keep Wade…

DWade is the face of the franchise now, there’s no way they can get rid of him. If they’re truly looking to rebuild, which is what they should do, they should definitely pick up the best PG on the board (Derrick Rose). They also need to find a young, proven big man off the free agent market. Throw in DWade at the 2, Haslem and the Matrix in the frontcourt, and suddenly the Heat are playoff contenders again in the anemic East.

that is assuming the Bulls pull their heads out their asses and draft Beasley

Pat Riley is smart. Greasy, ya. Slimy and willing to fire the coach the second he thinks HE could win a ring? Absolutely. The type of guy you’d love running your business but chase out of your house if he was ever dating your daughter/sister/mom/friend/acquaintance/anyone you’d ever heard of? Definitely. The man is smart though. They’re obviously not big on Beasley, so they’re trying to stir up enough of a thought that they would actually pass on him to get other teams into a bidding war so they can move down and still pick up something solid (or see what he could get and eventually take Beasley anyway.) What other reason could there honestly be? (Other than DWade’s health being worse than we all know.)

Don’t forget that Wade, Bron and Bosh signed those short 3 year extensions and there was always rumors of Wade bouncin back home to the Chi if the heat left him wit a team like Cleveland. If Riley got some info, he can do a deal for Wade before they lose him for nuthin…but Wade and the #2 for the #1 is ridiculous
