The Clipper org and fans should be damn satisfied with how things are run in that the franchise has be run superbly the past 2 seasons. If the team does fail in reeling in the big fish, then clearly it wasnt due to basketball reasons, but for players to want to earn more money on the respective home team maxes or had other off court agendas.
I was initially on Team Tank after the Tobias Harris trade, but short of a miracle lotto move up like the Lakers got, the team showed its mettle facing off against the champs and taking 2 games from em with their youth playing a significant role. The more i think about it, the more it seems like it was the RIGHT move to push hard for the playoffs with the current crew and show prospective FA superstars how they can take this squad over the top with their arrival (if 2 come, then bye bye Gallo).
No other team has such amazing quality cheap veteran and youth combo on their roster, combined with a win now coach in Doc.
Meh.
Sign Kawhi.
You get him ages 29, 30, 31, and 32.
4 years to hit on a ring and when he's done, you start the process all over again of building a team to attract a star. What are we? A middle school girl putting on make up or a basketball organization?
Warriors are staring at ring #4 and are currently playing in their 5th finals.
Curry = 31.
Klay = 29.
Draymond = 29.
Their window isn't even closed after this year.
Clippers?
Please sign me up for the 4 year window sweepstakes.
Like I said....meh.
ZZZZZzzzz
