In a high-risk, high-reward move, the Los Angeles Clippers are discussing a deal with the Charlotte Hornets to acquire guard Lance Stephenson, league sources told Yahoo Sports.

The Clippers would send forwards Spencer Hawes and Matt Barnes to the Hornets, sources said. Talks have been ongoing for several days, but the proposed deal is yet to be considered imminent.

Hmm...

Stephenson will kill CP3.

I think that could be a nice deal for the Clippers. I would think Doc and CP should be able to control Lance a bit.

I think it would be the other way around

Exactly. Jesus, I cannot see that working at all.

Lance is basically CP3's antithesis.

Although Lance certainly has the potential to be more useful than Hawes and Barnes, I guess.

I think CP3 will yell a lot. And I don't think Lance will take kindly to that.

They don't use Hawes at all so it's Barnes for Stephenson. Might as well take a chance on that deal.

Clippers trying to "add" some back bone to a mentally soft team. If it works, it will be a great addition. If not, it won't be much longer before that team is broken up.

If true, good move for the Clippers. Not like they have a lot of assets to improve the roster without breaking-up the core.

Clippers might as well - still can't believe the lost to the damn Rockets. Totally denied us a very fun WCF.

The fewer chances Lance gets to blow on LeBron's face, the better.

I take it you weren't paying much attention. HOU wAs above them in the standings pretty much all year and had much worse injury issues.

Clips would have at least gone 7 games with the Warriors. Instead we got the Rockets getting smoked in 5

That should work out well for Stephenson. He'll get to move closer to his brother Vance, a State Farm agent in L.A.

They would've gotten steamrolled no way they go 7. 5 games tops. Hell if HOU wasn't rusty G1 LAC wouldn't have even made it 7 games w CC.

I think he was saying that the Clippers vs the Warriors would have been more interesting. If that's what he's saying, I agree.

ETA: I think the outcome would have been the same
