Re: Clippers owner Sterling puts it on Dunleavy to win, Dunleavy fires back

Sterling was fine before. Clippers just always sucked. No free agent wanted to come here, and people always got on sterlings case for not resigning talent, and letting them go for nothing. Well, 95% of those guys, had we resigned them would have made us a worse team/organization in hindsight, so i dont blame him for the loosing years.

What turned things around was the new Collective bargaining agreement with the salary cap structure. Now guys didnt have the options they had before, meaning some would eventually have to pick the clippers. I have nothing but respect for sterling the last 15 years and the decisions he made until just a couple of years ago when he started getting loose with his pocketbook, and allowed other bad decisions to take place. He should have forced the livingston for pierce or iverson trade. He should have allowed the terry for maggette deal, should have done so many things the last few years its not even funny.

Dunleavvy is an arrogant idiot. Doing the best job possible? Good greif. Just take one look at the clipper offense and his rotations, and a high school coach could see the best job is not being done. Maybe he means, the only way were going to improve is through a high draft pick, and so really hes doing a terrible job on purpose in order to get that pick. Other than that, i dont think theres another coach in the league right now who could be doing a worse job.
