If you go back and read correctly, they didn't say Reid has never lost to us in December, they said he's only lost to us once in December since he's been the head coach there.
Its pretty easy to say that, because its a fact.
Im not sure how the salary cap adjusts in 2 years at all, but if the Clips can get him to reup good for them. Real competition between the LA teams would be fun to watch.
