08:07 AM ET 06.12 | Neil Olshey, in leaving for Portland, also left the Clippers in search of a new basketball exec. The Clippers said Monday that [Andy Roeser] immediately began a search for a new general manager to replace Olshey. And indeed Roeser was in Chicago this week at the NBA's pre-draft camp, along with most of the NBA's front office executives. The Clippers haven't yet put together a list of candidates, but Roeser was expected to have dinner with agent Warren LeGarie in Chicago this week. Among the list of clients that LeGarie represents is Kiki Vandeweghe. ... Vandeweghe spent last season as an analyst and sideline reporter for Prime Ticket on the Clippers' games and he has expressed interest in returning to basketball.

Ah Kiki, brilliant, a recycled has been. Given the Clips storied ownership, how could anyone expect anything different than a Kiki hire? Yeah, he has this storied GM/Frontoffice tenure.

Knowing how Sterling operates he may hire one the 'super' from one of his slum lord properties to oversee the team

Whoever they pick, he has to acquire a few pieces to fill in around Paul and Griffin. Do that, and OKC could have a threat.

Talk about a bad working environment.......

They may even go get Phil Jackson or Jerry but that won't help. Not because they aren't great GM's or coaches but because of Chris Paul. He's their problem. He used to play with fire in his eyes but he's lost it. Having a kid and getting used to the LA life has taken that drive to win out of him....

Because of Chris Paul? Dude you come right outta left field with this one. My guess is that you're the only one with a explantion of this sort. Wow, of all the comments you've made, this one is quite the stretch and just blows everyone away.

The Clippers are an embarrassment to LA/Southern California. The Lakers, Dodgers, Angels, Ducks and now the Kings have all won titles in their respective sports. Why don't they go back to Buffalo but leave us CP3. LOL.

Chris Paul did not perform well in their series against the Spurs. Go back check the stats... he just bought a lavish house that Avril used to own in LA... man dude's found things that are better than sticking it to the opposing team. Do I blame him? No.. but do I think his new found love for life in the big city will affect his passion for the game? Hell yeah... afterall it aint like he works for an owner to die for...
