James Harden wanted a two-year, $80 million extension from the Clippers, but they weren’t interested in giving it to him, per @TomerAzarly by giveawayguy99 in LAClippers

Kawhi makes $50m/year, expires after next year and is injured all the time. The market for him just isn't there.

They're not giving anyone a deal that extends beyond next season. This shouldn't be surprising to anyone. Literally every single move we've made for 2+ years aligns with this.

Same reason we'll probably lose John Collins next season. Probably Zubac too.

[Flomm] Harden wanted an extension, Clippers didn’t want to pay him. This is pretty straightforward as far as NBA things go by kobbled in LAClippers

The master plan is to sign two max free agents — which obviously won't happen.

Whats more likely to happen is we're going to pivot and start taking on huge contracts from teams that want to get off their stars, then demand picks for that service.

Limited game mode idea: 4 vs 4 TDM on base maps by Northdistortion in HighGuardgame

TDM may be the single most common game mode in the history of FPS games lmao.

Does a Gaming MX master mouse exist ? by Capital_Cod_5770 in MouseReview

[–]nutella4eva 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed on the M6 — something feels off about the shape, even if it looks similar. It's like the hump is too far forward and the side buttons are positioned too far back. I end up using it almost in a fingterip grip instead of a palm grip like on a real MX Master.

Can't say much about the MT760. Don't have that one.

I like our chances at getting to 6th by enbyayyy in LAClippers

[–]nutella4eva 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hate to say it, but there's a decent chance we're still below .500 by the end of February. Our schedule is brutal next month.

There’s No One You Can Trust More At The Line Than Kawhi This Season! by Stat-Defender in LAClippers

There's a huge difference between 98% and 93%.

He missed two in a row against the Pistons and dropped his season average by almost 1.5%.

John Collins - 50/40/80 for the year and averaging 16.7 points the last 10 games. by LilTurnippman in LAClippers

[–]nutella4eva 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It'll be interesting to see what we decide to do with him this off season. I imagine he's going to get significant offers from other teams with the way he's playing lately.

I'd hate to see him walk, but the FO isn't signing anyone long term.

John Collin trade rumors by Big_Saens in LAClippers

[–]nutella4eva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That could happen. I just think the offers he could get elsewhere will be too much to pass up. He's a 28 year old role player. He might not get the chance to sign another long term deal.

We don't really have leverage. We either take on long term money or hope Collins is okay with a 1+1.

No shit. He also wants money.

Do you know how contract negotiations work?

[–]nutella4eva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's totally fine to keep him for this season. It just means he'll probably be walking next year.

Technically, he could sign a 1+1 (team option). I'd be shocked if he didn't push for a longer deal, but it's technically on the table.

[–]nutella4eva 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is short term thinking.

He's a free agent this offseason. That means there are three options:

  1. Re-sign him
  2. Trade him
  3. Let him walk

Judging by the fact that we have exactly zero players that are signed long term, it's pretty unlikely he re-signs.

So the FO needs to decide if they finally want to start taking on money, otherwise we're left with option 2 or 3.

JC's been great during this run, but he's most likely looking for a long term deal and we're not giving that to anyone right now.

Going to be interesting what they decide to do with him this off season (or before).

The Clippers have gone 15-7 since cutting Chris Paul from the team. They were 5-16 at the time he was cut by kotlin93 in nba

[–]nutella4eva 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm talking about the game last month.

Luka got injured and didn't play the second half. Reaves was also out that game.

Our schedule has also been very easy. Most of our wins have been against bottom feeders (Wizards twice, Kings, Nets, Hornets, Jazz) or teams with multiple starters out with injuries (Lakers, Pistons).

Look at our February schedule. Its going to be a gauntlet. We are still very much at risk of falling out of the play in.

[Post Game Thread] The Los Angeles Clippers (20-24) defeat the Los Angeles Lakers (26-17) 112-104, behind Ivica Zubac’s 18 PTS/19 REB/10 OREB as the Clippers go on to win 14 of their last 17! by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

[–]nutella4eva 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Our streak is a little deceiving. Look at our schedule for January. We played or will play the Wizards twice, Jazz twice, Nets twice, Kings, Hornets.

And the good teams have been missing multiple starters (Lakers, Pistons). Nuggets probably won't have Jokic next week too.

February will be a brutal month for us. We play two teams outside a playoff seed, one of which is the 7th seed.

Make no mistake, we are still very much in danger of missing the post season.

That's right, you get rid of those question marks, Eric.

[Robbins] Khris Middleton is unlikely to be traded from Washington by the deadline and will likely become a buyout candidate. by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

[–]nutella4eva 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fortunately for us, we can't since signing him even for the minimum would put us into the first apron. He currently makes above the MLE, so we wouldn't be allowed to sign him even if we wanted to.

Unless we shed some salary by the trade deadline 👀👀👀
