Per Shams Charania of the Athletic, Kawhi Leonard and the Clippers are “working towards a minicamp, potentially in Miami, before the start of training camp”. (Check the 55 second mark of the video embedded below.)

It re-airs tonight at 8:30pm on Prime Ticket and tomorrow at 9:30pm on FSW.

Mike Hill and Maggette recapped the summer so far. If you don't get to see it, you're not really missing much.

Corey "ESL" Maggette back from the #MeToo dead. Looks like the rape allegations against him and the Lt. Gov of Virginia are going to be permitted to just fade away.

Good news for him. Bad news for those of us dreading him getting the color commentary gig. The only thing worse would be Ryan Hollins, and that only by a whisker.

Since two other people have already passed on the job, neither is their first choice, and you'd think obvious first choice (IMO) Don McLean has passed too.

Old Open Floor Podcast 

Post#71 » by Ranma » Sun Sep 15, 2019 8:24 am

On today’s show Andrew Sharp and Ben Golliver are talking through the Kawhi Leonard and Paul George introductions in L.A. and the reasons to buy or sell what’s next for the Clippers. Topics include: living life like Steve Ballmer, whether Kawhi will ever top his final two months with the Raptors, Paul George’s twist on the OKC story, load management strategies in the West, and a looming war for Andre Iguodala. From there: Zion Williamson signed with Jordan Brand, is 56 year-old Michael Jordan currently more effective as a basketball player than he is as an owner, and would Tim Duncan ever want to be the head coach of the Spurs? At the end: Team USA continues to hemorrhage talent, apologies to our Australian listeners, the way to fix the USA basketball model going forward, updated thoughts on a Bradley Beal trade, solutions to the retired number crisis of the future, and an update on Sharp’s Raptors tribute.

Leonard wanted to sign with the Clippers, but they would have to find a way to acquire a second star.

“We actually had a list of guys, which was a mistake, but we got lucky,” Rivers said. “We shouldn’t have had a list, because then he got to choose who he wanted to play with and the assumption was that we could get them. We didn’t know if we could get anybody. We just showed him guys that we thought would match him and when he saw Paul George’s name he said, ‘I want to play with him.’

“We showed him everybody else and he didn’t want to hear it. He just stayed on Paul George, so after the meeting we sat down and I said, ‘We got to get Paul George. I don’t know how we are going to do it, but we have to do it.’ We did know that Oklahoma City wanted to break their team up, so that helped, but we didn’t know if we could get him.”

The Clippers traded five first round picks plus two pick swaps to the Oklahoma City Thunder for George.

“Steve Ballmer was nervous about the picks,” Rivers said. “I said, ‘Steve, you keep saying six picks for Paul George is insane, but you’re saying it wrong. It’s not six for Paul; it’s six for Paul and Kawhi. So three for each. I would do that.’ You have to look at it in those terms.”

The Thunder initially rejected the trade, leading the Clippers to believe he was set to sign elsewhere.

“The day of the trade at 12 noon the deal was off,” Rivers said. “I was at home in Malibu and Lawrence called me and told me, ‘It looks like he’s either going to Toronto or the Lakers.’ The Lakers part just threw me over. I told him that can’t happen. … I remember I kept telling him, ‘We cannot allow that to happen!’

“I actually told Steve jokingly that if that happens, we’re moving the team to Seattle. It was a joke, but I was actually serious about it. I really believed that.”
