With the recent retirement of Elton Brand, conversations appeared in blogs and Twitter questioning whether or not he deserved to have his jersey retired by the Clippers, the team he spent the most time on during his NBA career. That question is hard to answer. The Clippers have no jerseys in the rafters of Staples Center. The first one to go up will be special.
When looking at retired Clippers players, not many names come up for jersey retirement conversation. In fact, the fact that the Clippers have never had a star player spend over 75% of their career with the team, makes it very difficult to consider anyone for the honor.
