Ricky Bobby is right.........
If you aint
first, ya last�
Here we are on the precipice of week 4 in the NSL as with most season
beginnings all teams are either riding the high of early season success or
lamenting the beginning of what may turn out to be a long arduous season.
The Clippers are setting their expectations a little lower than we originally
liked however we still hope for the best whist fielding such a young and
inexperienced team with hopes to see LAC field a competitive lineup�s that like
last season see�s the young team finish around the play in / play off area.
One thing the Clippers management is good at and will remain vigilant
with though is patience, trading for the sake of trading will never be a part
of the team�s DNA. And for the foreseeable future we have our sights set on setting
up the future of the franchise rather than chasing short term success
Immediate goals after starting the season 4-6 is to investigate the possibly
offloading Gerami Grant, most likely for a position of need almost definitely a
Centre and like mentioned above its just not something we will jump into and could
in fact be a long wait until something actually manifests itself.
The delay or lack of haste in bringing in another Centre is simply due
to the surprising play of Mr. 0gm Drew Eubanks (didn�t even want to sign him in
FA, it was a test bid�.!!!) who in starting minutes thus far has put up a very respectable
9pts 11bds 2blks per game.
While Eubanks is in no way the future for LAC in the middle, he is an
acceptable stop gap while hunting for a replacement piece that can be part of a
growing core group. With teams still jostling for position the Clippers will
happily take things as they come and trade when the time presents itself
With 2 games left in week 3 and a brutal week 4 schedule we are
expecting the dust to settle and a little more fluidity in the trade market.
Teams will start to recognize what direction to take and make the moves that
suit that direction. which may open up more trade options for a patiently waiting Clippers GM
