Notes.
Do any of you remember the Gerald Green 'Birthday Cake' dunk? I vaguely do, but here it is for those that never saw it: CLICK!
At the end of this long piece on Blake Griffin there is some stuff on Gerald Green worth checking out: CLICK! I don't know if the last line in this McDonough quote is a throw away, but it's interesting to see that he considers him part of the core going forward. He's certainly been key to staying afloat during Bledsoe's injury.
Also another interesting quote from McDonough addressing "tanking."""Well, we didn’t expect him to play like an All-Star," McDonough said. "We thought he’d fit in well. What we realistically thought was possible was to have him play like he did in New Jersey a couple of years ago. We certainly didn’t see that coming, nor did we expect that going forward. But he’s been great for us. We’ve got him for this year and next and hopefully for a long time.""
"The plan is interesting," McDonough said. "Our plan was to create an opportunity for the young guys to play and give them a chance and guys who hadn’t been given a chance, to give them a chance. I think a lot of people misconstrued that as we’re trying to lose intentionally and that wasn’t the case at all. With all the interest in the draft and the tanking buzzword that’s kind of been out there, people say, ‘Are you disappointed?’ No. If you lose a lot of games the best thing that could happen is you get a player that’s hopefully as good as some of these guys. Why don’t we just win right now and add to that?"
