The latest edition of Area 21 on TNT has been an absolute gold mine, thanks to the mini reunion of the 2008 Celtics, with Paul Pierce, Rajon Rondo, Kendrick Perkins, Glen "Big Baby" Davis and even Doc Rivers (via video chat) hanging out and reminiscing about old times.
They weren't only talking about the past, however, as they talked about the big free agents coming up this summer.
Like everyone else who watches and follows the league, these guys have their thoughts and predictions about where the big names will wind up. Big Baby, for one, thinks that Blake Griffin is going to leave the Clippers, chiming in (in a bizarre high-pitched voice) with "Blake, he outta there" when Griffin was brought up.
When asked where he thought the Clippers star was going to wind up, Big Baby didn't skip any beats, saying "OKC.
Awkward ending to @KGArea21 with Big Baby saying Wade & Millsap joining CP3 in LAC, Griffin to OKC. Rondo asked about Wade, then show ends. pic.twitter.com/fDWr5Sh04u

Big Baby also predicted that Dwyane Wade would leave Chicago to join up with Chris Paul, presumably in Los Angeles, while Rondo, Wade's most recent teammate offered no thoughts, saying he "hadn't spoken with him."
There was also a shout for Paul Millsap to the Clippers, though it isn't exactly clear who made that suggestion.
It was certainly interesting to hear these guy's thoughts, especially as you assume they have a somewhat better idea for the feelings certain players have in regards to where they want to play. Unfortunately, the segment was cut off rather abruptly, so we didn't get any more free agent chatter.
Perhaps Big Baby knows too much? I guess we'll have to wait until the summer to find out.
