Clippers Pursuing the Logo (West Joins #ClipCityChipCity!)

I always believed he wanted to win (and obviously had the pocketbook to back it up), but I doubted whether he had the vision and foresight to make the right moves (or oversee the right moves as owner.) Jerry West is a HUGE get for the organization!!

I would prefer something more along the lines of this concept, personally:

Yeah, pretty much every concept that has been floated around the last 3 years is better than what they went with.

What they ended up with makes absolutely no sense at all as it is the most generic thing I have ever seen, they should have also changed the team name to "Los Angeles Sports Team".

Lawrence Frank looks and sounds so awkward on that stage.

West: "Joining the Clippers is the last adventure of my life." Sounds like he's in for the long haul.

West: "I'm not here to replace anyone."

Very interesting wording, still leaves the door open for a coaching and GM change when he inevitably gets tired of Doc's BS.

Dumb question from Plaschke, trying to bait West into slobbering all over the Lakers. He didn't take the bait.

FWIW, here's what West said in the press conference when he joined the Warriors in 2011:

West strongly hinting that Doc needs to start actually developing young players.

Got a chance to meet J West at the presser today. Excited.
