La question se pose maintenant : est-il temps pour les Clippers de rendre hommage à Bill Walton l’un de leurs grands joueurs en retirant un maillot ?<\/a><\/h2>

Les Clippers de Los Angeles n’ont jamais retiré de maillot dans l’histoire de la franchise, à l’exception du numéro 6 de Bill Russell dans le cadre d’une initiative de la ligue.<\/p>

Ron Harper, qui a joué cinq saisons avec les Clippers entre 1989 et 1994, a récemment appelé la franchise à retirer le maillot numéro 32 de Bill Walton. Le tweet de Harper est survenu après l’annonce du décès de Walton lundi dernier.<\/p>

\n

« Le premier maillot que les @LAClippers devraient retirer est celui de la grande tête rousse Bill Walton », a tweeté Harper.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>

D’une certaine manière, Bill Walton a aidé à mettre les Clippers sur la carte. Après cinq années marquées par des blessures avec les Portland Trail Blazers, Walton a rejoint la franchise, alors basée à San Diego, en 1979 avec un contrat de sept ans et 7 millions de dollars, le plus lucratif jamais signé à l’époque.<\/p>

Ce mouvement a été essentiel pour aider la franchise à parachever sa rebranding des Buffalo Braves aux Clippers, un changement opéré un an avant l’arrivée de Walton.<\/p>

Bien que Walton n’ait joué que 47 matchs au cours de ses deux premières années à San Diego en raison de ses blessures aux pieds, il a apporté de l’espoir à une franchise qui tentait de conquérir une part de marché de fans dans le sud de la Californie.<\/p>

Le natif de San Diego s’est rétabli au cours de sa troisième et quatrième année, apparaissant respectivement dans 55 et 67 matchs, alors que les Clippers remportaient plus de 30 matchs et devenaient plus compétitifs.<\/p>

En 1984, les Clippers ont déménagé de San Diego à Los Angeles, un déménagement dont Walton s’est blâmé en raison de ses blessures. Cette année-là, Walton a joué dans 67 matchs, ce qui a répondu à certaines questions sur sa durabilité et a donné aux prétendants de la ligue la confiance de tenter leur chance avec lui.<\/p>

Walton a choisi les Celtics et a remporté son deuxième titre NBA en 1986 tout en étant élu meilleur sixième homme de l’année.<\/p>

À ce jour, de nombreux fans de sa ville natale, San Diego, chérissent Walton malgré son incapacité à rester en bonne santé pendant son séjour dans la ville.<\/p>

Même les Clippers reconnaissent ses contributions à la franchise, notamment en tant que commentateur couleur pendant 12 ans entre 1990 et 2002.<\/p>

\n

« Nous avons perdu l’un des plus grands joueurs et personnalités que cette franchise, ce sport et cette région aient jamais connus. Bill Walton est synonyme de basketball en Californie du Sud : un natif de San Diego, un phénomène de l’UCLA, une icône des Clippers. »<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>

Certains ont même avoué regarder les matchs des Clippers à cette époque juste pour écouter les commentaires de Bill Walton.<\/p>

Peut-être est-il temps pour les Clippers de retirer le maillot du joueur qui les a mis sur la carte.<\/p>
