Reggie Bullock, CDR, and a 2017 2nd round pick

You've got to be kidding me

He will be rehabilitated by letting Paul coach him how to effectively play the position. After one year, every team will want this kid. See: Bledsoe and Collison.

Rivers doesn't have the athleticism of Bledsoe. No way not even in the same league. Rivers is a clipper cause pops is the coach. Period.

What's the deal with Bullock? He fills a need for the Clippers with his 3&D game from the wing. Was he hurt?

It is not illegal for a father to coach his kid professionally. Until the league says it is illegal, I say more power to Doc:)

Yeah, but I only get a lil bit disgusted watching Rivers play. Smith made me want to stab my eyes.

Other teams draft bad BTW. Rivers is not quite prime time.

The Clippers will not compete until they get a defensive wing, and more big man depth. Barnes is washed, Paul was on Durant at times during the playoffs giving up nearly a foot. Jordan needs help, they are a middle of the pack defense this season. I honestly feel sorry for Paul, he's this generations Isiah Thomas he just loses to more talented teams every year.

Doc really wanted his son, Bullock has the potential to be a good 3D wing he just doesn't get enough PT. I saw this kid at North Carolina one of the best shooters and on-ball defenders in his draft. Rivers was always overrated because he's Doc's son, tons of flaws in his game should have stayed at Duke another year.

Its not illegal, but its unhealthy- he's not just the coach, but is also essentially the GM- is that really going to lead to fair contract negotiations in the offseason?

What makes it worse, is they gave up that to fill a position that wasn't really a need. They needed either a back up SF or a defensive, rebounding front court player. Now they've actually gotten thinner at SF- well done Doc!

Really makes me wonder why we couldn't have gotten more from the Clips for Shump. Guess that was the cost of JR, which is ironic, as he is playing (mostly) well for Cleveland. At least we got rid of JR's contract for next year.

Unfortunately Shumps second name isn't Rivers!
