    Remember when some people were saying that Steve Balmer got screwed by buying the Clippers right before their downfall ? Well don't look now but....

    Wait for 4 or 5 years. They mortgaged their future.

    It all depends on how they do compared to the L@kers. If they win at least one title in the next two years, and L@kers struggle, then it will have well been worth it.

    But, if they win, he should sell. LA only has one real team and it will never be the Clips.

    Known the NBA they would still likely keep the teams in the same divisions and we would still be playing Utah, Denver, Minnesota and OKC in our division.

    The guy has too much money to want to sell. This is all about entertainment for him.
    Plus if he gets his new arena.........http://www.thepostgame.com/los-angeles-clippers-new-arena-inglewood-ballmer

    When was the last time the value of an NBA franchise decreased? The only recent thing I can think of is in 2010 when LeBron left the Cavs but I'm not sure if their actual Forbes value went down or not.

    He was the 6th pick in the 2017 draft by the Magic.

    Thanks. I don't follow non-Blazer picks as much as I used to.

    This guy is gonna be really good.


    The point is to go for the title and they are good for at least 2 years. I would prefer to be the Clippers compared to the Thunder even though the latter have 100 future picks.
