Default who the clippers gonna draft now?

The Los Angeles Clippers today acquired the fourth and 33rd overall picks in the 2004 NBA Draft from the Charlotte Bobcats in exchange for the second overall selection in the draft. In addition, Charlotte has agreed to select Clippers' center Predrag Drobnjak in Tuesday's expansion draft.

In making the announcement, Clippers' Vice President of Basketball Operations Elgin Baylor said, "This trade achieves a two-fold objective: First, we know we will get the player we want with the fourth pick, and second, it improves our salary cap flexibility with regard to potential free agent developments."

Drobnjak averaged 6.3 points and 3.2 rebounds in 61 games played in Los Angeles last season.

Shaq's salary is a big as his fat ass... damn I just read about how could other teams get him... he makes like 3x more than most All-Stars out there.

[EDIT]
The Clips have very solid players at all spots... I dont know why they suck so bad?

True, but you cant compare the greatest player who ever lived, an unselfish team player who gave the term "greatness" a new meaning to a whine baby like Shaq.
