General Manager Doc Rivers did coach Doc Rivers a great service by signing Marreese Speights and Brandon Bass to one-year minimum deals in NBA free agency this summer. Although both players are not stars and have their flaws, both will contribute to the LA Clippers‘ depth and provide specific value.
Speights is the long range shooting big man the Clippers have been looking for since Vladimir Radmanovic rocked the red, white, and blue jerseys. Meanwhile, the power forward Bass will be expected to (attempt to) fill the void that was created when Cole Aldrich and his stellar defense left in free agency.
