Blake Griffin has continued to express optimism about playing for the Clippers next season.
The Chicago Tribune asked Griffin about the team's history of struggles.
"I don't believe in curses or anything like that," Griffin said. "They have great players and a great coach. I expect them to be good next year."
Griffin added that he'd like to accomplish what Derrick Rose did in Chicago, enjoying success while also helping improve his team.
"He did a great job," Griffin said of Rose. "Hopefully I can do the same."

Blake Griffin, who the Clippers have identified they will take with the first overall pick, isn't counting his chickens before they hatch.
"I'm planning it as if I don't know right now, which I don't," Griffin said Thursday from Chicago. "I'm not going to guarantee anything. I'm going through it just like everybody else is."
However, Griffin admitted that he only has a visit scheduled with the Clippers.
"Nothing's set in stone," Griffin added. "Anything can happen, so I'm not going to start buying a house and all that in L.A."
