The Clippers' best start in team history coincides with this being the last year of Mike Dunleavy's three-year contract. The team holds a club option for next year, which is expected to be picked up. However, no serious extension talks have transpired yet between the team and Dunleavy's agent Warren LeGarie.

"I'm not worried about that at this point,'' Dunleavy said.

Joe Safety, the Clippers' vice president of communications said, "Right now we're all on the same page and everyone is focused on the task at hand.''
