I think the Clippers should bring him back next year. He is a restricted free agent, so we can match any offer on him. While I don't think we should overpay for him, I doubt there will be many teams going after him willing to give him a multi-year deal, given this economy. Therefore, I would try to resign him to a 1yr/2mil deal as of now.

We've never been that strong of a 3 point shooting team so we need to try and keep Novak here, as long as he's not over paid.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

I'm expecting us to match any offer that he may get. He's kind of one dimensional, but he's pretty good at that one dimension. He's a fan favorite, and a good contributor. He'll be offer the qualifying offer, so as long as someone doesn't throw him an unreasonable offer then he'll be back for at at least the upcoming season.

I'm a little worried about Novak coming back. No doubt, he was lights out from beyond the 3-line, one of greatest pure shooters in the NBA right now. However, if he's not hitting his shots he's basically useless.

Definitely a keeper if you ask me. Prob one of the best open 3pt shooter in the NBA if not the best. Hey as long as you can shot, you will always find a spot for yourself in the NBA.

As long has he's got that smooth stroke, he'll find a place to play. I'm hoping the Clipps can keep him, but I wouldn't be surprised to find a contender sign him.

How much is his QO worth? I couldn't find it.

I want him back as well. A pure shooter who can catch fire. Can really help our bench.
