Good deal, very good fit with Trae and JC.

For me, this solidifies my belief that a consolidation trade is happening soon and that OO will be included.

Very well deserved. Clint did just about everything the team could hope for from him. Still a young man at 27.
My eyes glaze over when reading alternative stat (not advanced stat) narratives that go many paragraphs long. If you can not make your point in 2 paragraphs it may not be a great point. :D

Congrats to CC.

Not sure what to make of this from a team building perspective. It's clear we're going hard this year with the team we've got. It also appears that we now have most key pieces locked into long term contracts and can be active traders if the opportunity arises.

But 2022 is definitely about the guys on this roster today.

Love the deal and love what Clint brings to the team, but I'd love it and him more if he wasn't so crappy offensively in the playoffs. Missed more bunnies than Elmer Fudd.

Very deserving.
He has found a nice fit within our system and city. At 27yrs old this is a food contract for CC and us.

It's right that he missed a lot of basket, but what I was finding strange is that it was the kind of baskets I already saw him not missing, so maybe fatigue, or putting too much pressure on himself during playoffs... so it's not exactly like he can't make these baskets, it's just a bad choice, like picking the faster way even in a difficult position to score, instead of the time to fake. And if alley-loop looks hard, just take the ball and hit the ground before shooting or passing, he tried some very hard ones
He can easily fix it himself, it's not a limitation from his playing abilities, it's bad choices, that he makes mainly in playoffs
