The most basketball I’ve watched this year was a quarter of game 2 of the knicks hawks series. Figures the clippers just needed me to stop caring before they actually do something

$41 mil a year for chris paul? LOL. i don't think so.

On second thought...

crap, i got lou'd.

well, chris paul is opting out of his $44 mil contract for next year to become a free agent. wonder how much he wants if helping his team get to the finals at $41 is somehow not enough for him. any takers?

also saw reports that kawhi leonard is opting out of his clippers contract. seems like it leaves paul george in a bit of a lurch since i think they both decided to come here together. good luck, buddy.

This was expected. They can now re-sign with their teams on long-term deals. For Paul, it will be his last one.

I don’t think it is about more money per season, but rather a restructured deal to add more years.  Or they made enough money, and are good going for a championship.

Here's your answer as to why he opted out.

clippers are breaking ground today on their new arena. it'll be located in inglewood by the rams new stadium. it'll have a similar architectural look and be called intuit arena. will seat about 18k. Balmer is financing all $2 billion himself.
