New Clips GM Talks on Expectations

After some careful deliberation, Clippers ownership have finally decided on who will be at the helm of the front office for their coming playoff run and their optimistic future. The Los Angeles Clippers have recently promoted rookie GM Felix Matos. Team sources have shared that the organization has bought into his visions for the team’s success, feeling that there is no better option than him. “We have the pieces to be contenders for years to come,” says Matos. “Jayson, Clint, Victor, Jaylen, John,- I can keep going. The NLL needs to be used to seeing success from this team”. When asked what will be his first moves in the GM’s seat, this was his answer: “Setting the tone. Im stepping in for a team that is currently first in the west with an outstanding record. My players have shown what they're made of and now it's my turn to do that myself by creating the best possible scenario for them to put banners up in this great city. The expectation is loudly present, and I want to show everyone that me, my front office, and this team’s players hear it”. Optimistic would be an understatement for the young GM. The Clippers currently sit atop the west at 53-10, led offensively by young offensive superstar Jayson Tatum who is currently averaging 30.6 ponts a game on 51% shooting numbers. “Jayson needs to be seen as an MVP candidate this year. With what he is doing along with this team’s success, it's unacceptable for him to be considered anything less” says Matos on Tatum. It's clear to see from the rookie GM that every single year the possibility of contention will be there. “It's all learning experiences. We have multiple guys who will become used to the playoff atmosphere and that's exactly what's needed for a championship team. We’re unbelievably excited for what's to come and you should be too.
