Clippers would love to re-sign Mason Plumlee, Eric Gordon

Andrew Greif: Eric Gordon has talked about physicality since he arrived. Roster is built for it, he said. Will they play like it vs. PHX? “We got a lot of guys who are good individual defenders but we have to be great on team defense,” Gordon said. “Eliminate all the little stuff.” -via Twitter @AndrewGreif / April 15, 2023

And yet the apparent control by Silas manifested itself with a lack of accountability in and outside the locker room. Silas, sources say, experienced difficulty at times connecting with players like Christian Wood and Kevin Porter Jr., evident in suspensions for both in January 2022. Wall and Silas were close and might have helped establish order, but the decision to exclude the veteran point guard from the rotation was a directive from management. Between Wood, Green, Eric Gordon and Porter, there was an underlying battle for pecking order. As a result, there was an overall lack of leadership. -via The Athletic / April 9, 2023

Law Murray: Clippers are playing Kawhi Leonard and Eric Gordon tomorrow vs Trail Blazers. Paul George and Marcus Morris Sr. (back) are out. Everyone else in with no tags. -via Twitter @LawMurrayTheNU / April 7, 2023

Andrew Greif: Mason Plumlee called it a “very different-looking offense” without Kawhi and PG. He added that “we have enough to go win. We have enough to go win the whole series. We just have to go get one in Phoenix and then go from there.” -via Twitter @AndrewGreif / April 24, 2023

Andrew Greif: Bones Hyland said he and Mason Plumlee had miscommunication with one another before their sideline exchange but they’d gotten back on the same page by the time the Clippers left Phoenix (Plumlee said the same Sunday). -via Twitter @AndrewGreif / April 11, 2023

Andrew Greif: Ty Lue said Bones and Plumlee worked things out. -via Twitter @AndrewGreif / April 9, 2023
