” That’s always the plan. “Two months after having affirmed it, at the end of the regular season, Lawrence Frank repeats it today: Kawhi Leonard And Paul Georgedespite repeated injuries and setbacks, remain cornerstones of the Clippers’ project.
” We try to put together the best possible team around these two players. We’re looking at different things, what worked, what didn’t work, what we need to do better, the fact that we’re asking our players to keep doing better, but yeah, that’s where we try to maximize those two and find ways to improve “, Displays the leader.
As a result, the Clippers are playing the ” transparency » with the two superstars, « regarding the short and long term plan “. ” We talked about the new CBA when we got together. This will change the way teams are built. It’s important to share things, how you see things, listen to what others see, and try to work together to build a team that every year is competitive for the title. Frank continues.
Cumulative salaries of 90 million dollars!
This is already the case at the start of each season. The concern is that one like the other has chained the glitches of health which has always prevented the Clippers from reaching their full potential. ” These two guys are incredibly proud to try to do something that has never been done here at the Clippers. So it’s incredibly frustrating for them, especially not being on the pitch, not being able to do what they came here to do. »
But to hear the leader, the two men, who ” appreciate and respect each other », remain « very determined “. Lawrence Frank remains more evasive when it comes to discussing potential contract extensions. The two All-Stars will receive $ 45 million each next year, for their last year of guaranteed contract (they have an option on the last).
” It’s premature (Today) because Kawhi is eligible for an extension in July, Paul in September. We’re kind of talking about the plan, but we can’t really go into specifics until the appropriate date. We’re just going to dialogue and have very, very honest and open discussions and see if there’s something that makes sense to all parties. “, ends the president.
