Lawrence Frank discussed Paul George, James Harden negotiations.
The event of George opting out of his contract and reaching unrestricted free agency is a possibility that the Clippers have discussed for several weeks and still seems to be the most likely scenario. pic.twitter.com/5eJu7Ixj5l – 8:05 PM

Asked Lawrence Frank about Cam Christie’s areas of growth
Frank emphasized that he shoots the ball well, and they want that to be even better (get to a 40-ball)
Plan is for Christie to get stronger, finish better, be able to guard the ball.
Also discussed his competitiveness pic.twitter.com/f6q7eIVlpS – 7:48 PM
