This offseason for the Clippers was supposed to be all about running it back.
It got off to the best possible start in that sense, when they re-signed the two guys fans were worried might move where the money was after big playoff performances. Then Kawhi Leonard being signed up for another four years felt like an end to any of the minor uncertainty around his future.
All three signings were statements of intent. We felt as though with a healthy roster the Clippers could’ve gone all the way last season, and it was clear the front office felt the same, even with the injury to Kawhi this time around.
