CHRIS PAUL TO STAY WITH CLIPPERSIt’s official. Chris Paul will remain in Los Angeles.
After more than a year of somewhat tempered speculation about where the league’s premier point guard would spend the next chapter of his NBA career, Paul agreed to a long-term contract with the Clippers that secures his future with the franchise through the 2017-18 season.
Paul reportedly made the decision to re-sign almost immediately after the NBA’s free agency period began on July 1, simply tweeting “I’M IN!!! #CLIPPERNATION” at 8:27 a.m.
But the deal could not be completed until the league’s annual moratorium on new business was lifted eight days later. That opportunity came at 9:01 p.m. PDT on Tuesday, when Paul, a six-time All-Star and perennial All-NBA performer, made things official.

ESPN Los Angeles' Arash Markazi details the Clipper offseason signing in his article,

I can't make any promises, but I'll be looking to see if I can find a link. At the very least, the Clippers website or foxsportswest.com will have streams up.

Paul said that he and Blake talked more this offseason than they ever have before. He's excited to have Collison backing him up. He said that Collison told him that he's ready to win.
Dudley feels that this is the best place that he could be at this stage of his career. He thought it was too good to be true when he first heard about a potential trade. He's glad to have a familiar face in Gentry. He believes that he and JJ will thrive in the offense.
Doc says he already has a vision on how he wants to use this team, but he will watch every single game from the 2012-13 season to evaluate what needs to be done to improve. Doc plans to focus on the defense and give Gentry to reins to lead the offense
Hollins says team has unfinished business to take care of. He believes Doc will improve the team's chemistry and focus especially on defensive end.
Redick says this is a best case scenario for him. Great team, great coach, great location. He's excited to be back in a situation where there are legitimate hopes of seriously competing. He's pushing up his offseason workout regimen to get ready sooner.
Darren says his main reason for coming here was to try to win a championship. Players see what's going on here and want to be here because of it.
Barnes says the team needs to be tougher. He's trying to get bigger/stronger so that he can play in the post more. He wants to exploit mismatches more. He also is working on improving his shooting. Barnes mentions taking less money to help convince Collison to sign.
Roeser says having the likes of Rivers and Paul certainly helps in the recruiting process. Sterling is committed and eager to produce a winner.

I'm very disappointed that Michael Eaves won't be on Clippers Live next season

I wonder if he's headed to ESPN or something.
