Alvin Gentry wants to be considered for the Los Angeles Clippers’ coaching vacancy.

"If you look at that job, it's probably the best one out there," Gentry said. "When you take into consideration the talent level that they have and what they did this year."

Gentry has spent time examining how Vinny Del Negro handled the team.

"They need someone who can manage egos, that's huge with that team,” Gentry said. “You need someone who can manage the bench. That bench has been great for them and pretty much won probably 10-12 games outright for them.

"And you need someone who can come up with plays at the end of the game, a little more ball movement maybe.”
