    On the day after their landmark season came to an end with a four-game sweep at the hands of the San Antonio Spurs, the Los Angeles Clippers were in no mood to talk about the future of their coach.

    The Clippers have a team option on Vinny Del Negro for next season and must decide by June 1 whether or not to exercise it. General manager Neil Olshey, who's also working without a contract, said Monday that he would not address Del Negro's job status publicly.

    "That's not what we're here to talk about," Olshey said Monday. "Coaching contracts, GM contracts, trainer contracts, that's not today. ... All that stuff will sort itself out."

    "I think Vinny did a great job, and that's as far as I'm going to go today," Olshey added.

    Del Negro refused to discuss his future when asked if he expected to be brought back for the 2012-2013 season.

    "I'm not gonna get into all my contract stuff," Del Negro said. "It's a waste of energy and whatever I say, you're not gonna listen anyway, so it doesn't matter."
