The team’s president of basketball operations acknowledges that the past three seasons have reinforced “how fragile the difference between winning and losing is.”
PLAYA VISTA — The mission at Honey Training Center is as straightforward as it is bold: Go where no Clippers team has before.“We’re going to have to look at areas of improvement,” Lawrence Frank, the Clippers’ president of basketball operations, said during an hour-long chat with reporters on Wednesday. “We want to make sure that we maximize our opportunities and be able to do something that’s never been done in the history of this organization.
Why no further? Blame injuries, call it a curse, chalk it up to costly moments of on-court mismanagement or throw a dart at any of a myriad of other factors. Frank anticipates the Clippers will be more fortunate with their stars’ health next season after Leonard missed the entire season and George missed 52 games, most of them with a torn elbow ligament.
“I’m not going to get into timetables,” Frank said. “What is it, middle of April? He’s going to continue to do everything that he has been doing, and we’re encouraged by the progress he’s making.”Before free agency begins, the Clippers have $160 million in salary, a tax bill of $17.9 million and, currently, 11 players set to be on the roster for next season.
