Jerry West: Clippers Were Really Stuck Before Blake Griffin Trade

The Los Angeles Clippers made the difficult but likely prudent decision to
trade Blake Griffin just a few months into his new five-year, $171 million
contract.

“Don’t be afraid to make that tough decision if you need to,” Steve
Ballmer recalled West telling him.

“No one wants to do that, particularly with someone like Blake Griffin,”
West says now. “It was very difficult for everyone, especially Steve,
because he really liked Blake personally. But this franchise was really
stuck. There was nowhere for it to go. You have to figure out how far away
you really are and how we can get there.”

快艇隊在去年夏天用五年1億7100萬美金的價碼留下 Blake Griffin

結果後來卻選擇在球季中把他交易到東區的活塞隊


總管 Jerry West 近期接受紐約時報專訪時

談到此事也強調沒有人會想要這麼做，對於每個人都是個困難的決定，特別是老闆 Steve

但是當時球隊已經陷入困境當中，必須想辦法處理




短評或心得：

而活塞隊儘管獲得Griffin的加入，但最後仍未搶進季後賽的席位。
