Los Angeles Clippers point guard Chis Paul was asked on Saturday if his team needed to upgrade their roster for the short term while possibly compromising the long-term outlook.

“I don’t think we need to (make any trades),” Paul said.

It was an interesting setup on the media stages for Saturday’s availability that Paul and Boston Celtics center Kevin Garnett were side by side.

“No,” he said when asked if he had asked Clippers officials to land Garnett. “Everybody knows I love our team. I love the position that we’re in right now (third in the Western Conference at 29-17). We’ve been playing great basketball. Right now, I’m focused on who we have and what we’re doing, because we’re not playing bad.”
