Please, please, please...don't go for some weirdo 12 year old "out of the box" guy...get someone safe and solid.
Jerry West anyone? Morey? Urji?
Can't see Morey or Urji. West is old now, but having him as a consultant would still carry a lot of weight. Not sure what his contract is with the Clippers though. 10 years ago he would have been my #1 choice of all time.
Mark needs to set high standards. The pitch is we have one of the best 22 year olds ever and have him for at least the next 5 years (may prove to be wrong, but lets assume) and anyone should want to build a team around him.
It is an extremely important hire though. Can't mess around or get cute.
