The Los Angeles Clippers have acquired C/F Marcus Camby from the Nuggets for a 2nd round pick in 2010. The Clippers took advantage of the Nuggets’ salary cap situation as this trade should help them a lot. The 34-year old Camby can really help the Clippers’ defense as he is one of the best players in the NBA on that side of the basketball court. The Clippers just need him to stay healthy and help the them dominate the paint when Camby is teamed inside with Chris Kaman. Camby played in 79 games (all starts) for the Nuggets last season and he averaged 34.9 minutes, 9.1 points, 13.1 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.1 steals and 3.6 blocked shots per game. The Clippers are expecting a lot out of Camby if they expect him to replace Elton Brand’s offense which I doubt he is capable of. Camby has now played in 695 games (549 starts) in his NBA career and he has averaged 30.6 minutes, 10.7 points, 9.7 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.0 steal and 2.6 blocked shots per game. This was a great trade for the Clippers.
