Threadworthy?

Probably not.


The Clippers Wednesday traded Zach Randolph to Memphis Grizzlies for guard Quentin Richardson, the LA Times has learned.

Yeah, that means they're less likely to deal Kaman, I'd assume.

Why?

They can still deal Kaman and play Camby/Griffin/Thornton/Jordan

Is Q still dating Moesha? Is Moesha still alive?

yeah i'm pretty shocked the grizz would take his deal on. that's weird IMO.

i would agree that this makes moving kaman very unlikely now. not for cheaper than his value at least! i don't see it happening.

I thought Moesha was all that.

Grizz roster is a mess...

I'm sure Zach Randolph will be a great mentor for Hasheem Thabeet.

I'm kinda surprised Donald Sterling wanted QRich more than Darko.

this is a classic case of teams trading CONTRACTS for whatever reasons and not just talent for talent. because nobody in their right mind can tell me that q-rich for randolph is even close to being even, as far as talent goes.

Randolph is far more talented than Q.

Randolph is far more talented than Q.

exactly. i'm referring to a previous conversation where another poster seemed to think that nba trades are based strictly on a talent versus talent basis. not at all- of course that's a factor. but you're essentially trading contract for contract. that is how such deals are constructed and factor into the big picture.

Yeah, it's a contract game. But why QRich? Darko is worth more as an asset than QRich. Darko would've been fine trade bait if they wanted to fill a hole in their roster during the season.

Higherwarrior

perhaps because Q has played there before and was very popular......?

They may just buy him out.

Maybe they didn't want to endanger their wives and daughters with Darko.

They could've just bought Darko out, and for cheaper. No, clearly they wanted QRich. It probably had to do with his time on the Clips beforehand. It's still strange, though.
