DeAndre Jordan reportedly wants Chris Bosh to join the Los Angeles Clippers in the upcoming season and speculations abound that Blake Griffin could be the trade bait to land the Miami Heat superstar.
The Clippers are not looking good right now after losing two of their first three preseason games against basically the second units of their opponents. Head coach Doc Rivers had been playing his starters like it is already regular season, but the Clips are still struggling to find a victory.

Jordan is said to be concerned about the team's ability to compete in the new season and so he was recently heard recruiting Bosh to join the club.
In a recent ambush interview while walking with his entourage toward their vehicle, Jordan reportedly said that he wants Bosh to join the Clippers after the reporter asked what he thought the Miami Heat big man should do next.
The 2016 All-NBA First Team center jokingly claimed that he is willing to "come off the bench" just to see the two-time NBA champion and 11-time All-Star with his team, according to UPROXX.
Bosh is still being sidelined by the Heat with only weeks left before the start of the 2016-2017 season because of his blood-clot issues. Team president Pat Riley disclosed last month that it is the end of Bosh's career as a Heat player and it is up to him if he wants to continue playing somewhere else.
Bosh is said to be keen on returning to the court this season, and with that, several trade rumors have emerged linking Bosh to different teams.
Meanwhile, Clippers power forward Griffin is also the subject of several trade rumors recently, according to the Inquisitr.
With the team's current struggles, speculations abound that Rivers may finally pull the plug to split the Big Three of Jordan, Griffin, and Chris Paul in midseason if the Clips go the same way as they have in past seasons.
Rivers reportedly admitted last month that the team is considering trading one or two of the Big Three to try and move in a different direction.
