The team's most important addition wasn't really addition at all. After almost losing franchise center DeAndre Jordan to the Dallas Mavericks, it is safe to say that the Clippers are extremely happy to have him back. In addition to retaining Jordan, the Clips also added some other familiar faces from across the league's landscape.

These additions certainly add to the team's overall depth, which has been another issue with the team as of late. A projected starting lineup of Chris Paul / J.J. Redick / Paul Pierce / Blake Griffin / DeAndre Jordan, with a bench rotation including Lance Stephenson, Josh Smith, and Jamal Crawford seems solid on paper, but will it be enough to push the Clippers over the edge in an ultra-competitive Western Conference?
The Warriors, Spurs, Rockets, and Thunder will probably have something to say about that.
