RE: Clips & Mo Taylor

["John Lyell" <Jlyell@concentric.net>]

They may not want to do it, but they will lose Taylor if they do not move
him, and most teams are not willing to do this, but the Clippers, Sterling &
Baylor may be the exception.  Anderson has a home in LA, doesn't fit in
Pitino's system, and the Clippers need a veteran point. I really don't think
there is really that big of a difference between Battie & Taylor, they both
have their strong & weak points.

I love that lineup, but I really doubt that the Clippers would do that
trade!
