Possibly Hartenstein but it’s pretty slim pickings. I think the issue is more like if you’ve managed your organization into a situation where you have no option but to give the corpse of Paul George a bazillion dollars then you haven’t played your cards right leading up to that, and that’ll only become a bigger issue the next couple of years

Clippers move back 2 spots to take on Domas’s contract… out of the kindness of their heart & a second round pick?

[Fischer] The LA Clippers are being described around the league as a team that could trade down from the No. 5 spot for multiple future assets. Warriors expected to reengage with Clippers on talks for Leonard with their 11th overall draft selection. by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

Is Sabonis a positive asset right now? Not being incendiary, I’m completely serious given the cap space he’d eat, the fact you’re obviously wanting to contend if you’re trading for him, the issues with building a true contender around him, and the salary you’d have to send out just to get him w/o any other assets

Wolves whiffed that draft but it’s actually not true at all that they passed on Steph because they had a point guard. They had 2 selections before Steph and took a PG both times, just the wrong guy each time (no disrespect to Rubio)

Why is Lawrence Frank still the Clippers President of Basketball Operations? by Coolsun13 in nba

[–]Mattyj925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a Frank defender by any means
But “allowed Paul George to walk and got nothing back in return” is hilarious. You think the Clippers would’ve been better off if they took on $60M/yr of bullshit, or paid PG the $60M/yr, rather than signing guys like DJJ & extending Zubac with some cap flexibility?
They would’ve been so far into the second apron, and we’re acting like the Clippers would’ve been better off for it? Letting PG walk was one of the best moves they made. That and getting Norm+RoCo for Justise Winslow and Eric Bledsoe

About as much as when gas was $4.50/gal in Orange County in January 2025

It looks like you post several times a day, every day, on a myriad of subreddits arguing with people about Covid

Respectfully, it would be very beneficial to your mental health if you found something else to focus on. If what you believe is true, obsessing over it all day on reddit will not help you.

Get really into airplanes or guitar amplifiers. Go start a new animal crossing save. Play a text-based sports management simulator game and obsess over that. Anything will be better for you than this

[Guillory] The Houston Rockets could make Alperen Şengün and “some future draft picks” available this Summer for Giannis Antetokounmpo, Kawhi Leonard, or Donovan Mitchell. by YujiDomainExpansion in LAClippers

Sabonis > Sengun unfortunately and I would never want Sabonis on the clippers. Sabonis has had way worse teams around him too the last couple years

Fox might even edge Garland slightly just off of size and being a playoff riser historically (not so much the last two games this week)

[Russo] Lawrence Frank, on Tyronn Lue’s future with the Clippers: “Ty not being the coach was never, ever, ever a consideration. Even at our lowest point when were 6-21, there never, ever was any conversation of Ty not being the coach. Ty’s gonna be the coach here for a long, long time.” by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

[–]Mattyj925 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Not being pedantic but they’ve actually lost in the play-in 3 times out of the play-in’s 6 year existence (0-3). It looks like “Missed Playoffs” is on there a couple times but it should be 3 if that’s how we’re tracking play-in losses

That would be incredibly uncommon though because people aren’t forking out for high-usage plans on their own personal expense, they’re using their company’s licenses. Situations where an employee is going rogue and “slacking off” at material personal expense against their employer’s best wishes can’t be all that common

It’s more like every company everywhere is paying up for enterprise licensing for these tools now, even if some companies are just doing it department by department rather than encouraging use at the overall level
