		Indeed, Baylor should be named the NBA's Executive of the Year for the deft decisions he's made that have resulted in the Los Angeles Clippers winding up in the playoffs and winning the most games 47 since they were known as the Buffalo Braves and had 49 victories during the 1974-75 season.
		But Elgin Baylor, who carried the Laker franchise in its early L.A. days along with Jerry West, who once averaged 38.3 points during a season, who had acrobatic moves that even Kobe Bryant would envy, deserves credit for the Clippers' success.
		Of course, Elgin Baylor also should be bestowed the Congressional Medal of Honor for his 20-year record of bravery under relentless fire working for the daffy Clippers owner Donald T. Sterling, who actually hasn't been that daffy in recent times.

	Remember the ABA: Warren Jabali
		ABA Teams: Oakland (1968-69), Washington (1969-70), Indiana (1970-71), The Floridians (1971-72), Denver (1972-73 to 1973-74), San Diego (1974-75)

		The next season he was also a Western Conference starter in the All-Star game, and then something happened which to my knowledge has never happened before or since in the history of professional sports: the day after the All-Star game Jabali was placed on waivers, and no team picked him up.

		The Clippers are in the playoffs for the first time since 1997 and have achieved the franchise's best record (47-35) since the 1974-75 season, when they were known as the Buffalo Braves.
		The focus on defense can be credited to Mike Dunleavy, who molded a club that led the NBA in blocks per game (6.13 bpg), was second in rebounding (43.07 rpg) and 12th in points allowed per game (95.9 ppg).
		Dunleavy seems to have command of his players, and can be credited with the development of emerging center Chris Kaman, who often mentions his coach's name when talking about the Clippers' resurgence.
