Sources: After meeting with New Orleans' top executive David Griffin about a high-ranking front office job, assistant GM Trent Redden will stay with Clippers. Redden has great belief in Griffin, but is still too connected to LAC group and the unfinished business remaining there.

Not surprising. LAC has the richest owner in pro sports as far as I'm aware, and if money is what it comes down to, if he wants to keep a staff member, he can keep a staff member. Even love for Griff might not be enough to overcome that kind of thing.

Leonard likely going to Clips. That is why he stayed.

I just think the Clippers team right now fits his game and personality perfectly. Gets to live in his hometown and still fly under the radar as everything they do will be praised while the Lakers get continually bashed unles they win a championship. I just don’t see anyway he wants any part of the Lakers and the pressure of the whole world being on him with nothing ever being enough. On top of that LeBron which just makes it worse and not someone I see him wanting to play for at all. Doc and West are 2 people I see him as guys he would love to play for fitting him to a T!Quote:
