Clips, I'm told, have NOT asked to interview Spurs' in-demand Mike Budenholzer. Suggests Sterling was thus scouting free agent-to-be Hollins— Marc Stein (@ESPNSteinLine) May 19, 2013

"@Ohmeomy: Things are getting so tough for Clippers with injuries - trainer Jasen Powell tore his Achilles in Orlando yesterday."

FYI: Solid source says Clips discussed trading Jordan 4 Varajeo B4 it was known he needs knee surgery. Cavs demanded Bledsoe as well. Twitter @PeterVecsey1

Name to keep an eye on: Eric Miller.

I keep hearing, with greater frequency from rival execs and agents, that the sharp Miller -- named at the start of the season as the Clippers' new director of basketball administration -- is being groomed for a larger role in the Clips' decision-making hierarchy.

How large? Miller is the son-in-law of Clippers owner Donald Sterling and is increasingly regarded as the likely eventual successor to Sterling, who bought the franchise in 1981 before its fourth of six seasons in San Diego before relocating to Los Angeles in 1984.

"(The Spurs losing Jackson and not having Leonard) opened up a lot. They were so small we could throw it into Blake (Griffin) and he could just go to work."

"I've never been on a team like this," Paul said. "I've never had this much fun before."

Got a text from Eddy Curry. He says the Mavs are waiving him.
