West is one of the most respected basketball people in the world. With the move the Clippers will look to take the step as an organization.
It is very well known that the Clippers have not advanced far in the playoffs during their time as a franchise and West will look to make that change. Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, and J.J. Redick have decisions to make on their futures.
West helped build the Lakers through multiple championship years including Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal duo.
