Constrained by new CBA rules, the team and the nine-time All-Star wing are in a standoff over his contract extension and could be going their separate ways

The Clippers’ Paul George, seen during a preseason game last season, will become a free agent if he declines the final year of his $48.8 million contract. And because he and the team have not come to terms on an extension, he could be on the move. is out of the way, we can finally get to what you’ve all been waiting for: NBA free agency.

But I also get why they’d veer west together once more, why they’d look at the landscape around them and the shiny, new arena they’re stepping into and choose radical optimism. Why they’d believe, with better health and the luck of a good playoff draw, we could be calling 213 Era – the L.A. area code-inspired nickname for No. 2 Kawhi Leonard and No. 13 George – champions at last.

This is a league that’s invited more teams to play-in and that’s putting the clamps on would-be superteams.
