Blake Griffin

Ideal destination: LA Clippers

Sorry, everybody. Whilst I would love to add fuel to the fire of the Clippers blowing it up. I realistically believe that the Clippers offer the best situation for Griffin. Among talk of Miami, the Thunder, the Bulls, and more, the Clippers still offer the best chance to win.

The grass isn’t always greener, and Griffin looks likely to re-sign in Los Angeles. Whilst the Clippers are not a realistic chance to beat the Warriors, Griffin does not make any side in the East favorites over LeBron.

Then, obviously, there is the money. Oh, the money. Griffin is set to make $45 million more if he stays at the Clippers. Considering Griffin’s injury history, he would be wise to stay put and take the guaranteed money.

Who says no to LA, $45 million, job security, and an equal chance to win?
