it's going to be very helpful for the clippers to have hawes around, if for no other reason than blake + DAJ will get more rest before the playoffs. i don't think it's a bad signing at all based on the clippers' disposition and desperation for a serviceable 3rd big (which Hawes is and should continue to be over life of contract since he's only 26).
i just was really hoping for pierce and would be disappointing if clippers miss out on him bc of hawes. they coulda added ed davis for like free to be their 3rd big.
take pierce out of the equation and i like it for the clips. it fills a gaping hole for a legit contender, so it doesn't matter if hawes isn't the sweetest player ever bc his VOFFD is massive and they weren't getting anybody better in that price range.
