[DJ Fieri]

Jordan went to a worse situation in Dallas than he had in Los Angeles.

Will you still be saying this next year when they sign Durant?

 

[bksballer89]

he wants to be the man

 

[Retroram52]

Everyone in Dallas is going to find out that D. Jordon isn't all that spectacular and that all that money they gave him will not be a very good value signing. Couldn't happen to a better a-hole than Cuban.

 

[DJ Fieri]

As long as Dirk is in Dallas.....he'll be "the man."

BOOM!!!

 

[bksballer89]

does anyone realize that dirk is going to retire in a few years? That team is going to be shit when dirk is gone unless they can land a big fish

they sold deandre that he will be the man and he fell for it lol

 

[UK Cowboy]

LMAO, all these teams and fanbases pine for DJ day after day, then he spurns them and he's suddenly Caldwell Jones. Mavs win 55 next year

 

[Retroram52]

Dallas is also going to discover funneling the offense through Jordon like Jordon thinks they should will be a complete train wreck because Jordon's shot repertoire is relegated to mostly dunks and putback lay-ups. In conjunction, there are no PGs to rely on in Dallas with the caliber of Paul whom Jordon depended upon with the Clip joint even though he didn't like Paul. Like I stated, couldn't happen to a better a-hole than Cuban.

They aren't funneling shit through DJ lol. Dirk and Matthews(as well as Parsons) will spread the floor and DJ will have a dunkfest

Yea O.K cowboy. Have you read anything lately?

Giving Matthews that contract coming off that achilles injury was pretty stupid as well.

Listen, I am completely bummed about him leaving.

But, what he was asking for was impossible for the Clippers.

He was, rightfully in my opinion, going to be like the 5th or 6th option on offense behind Blake, Paul, Reddick, Crawford, Stephenson...Hell, maybe even Austin.

Again: This is why guys like Dirk/Bosh/Duncan/Wade are so valuable.

They are willing to sacrafice parts of their game for the greater good.

As for his beef with CP3?

What were the options?

CP3 is starting to hit the other side of his prime.

He is still a top 5 pg.

But, not in the convo for best any longer.

With that being said, he is still the leader on this Team and I don't have a problem with him jumping in a guy's ass for not hitting free throws.

So, if someone had to go, it haad to be DeAndre.

Now the Clips have to go into salvage mode.

Look at the Spurs.

They did something similar by trading Splitter in hopes of landing Aldridge.

* We traded Hawes*

If they don't get LMA, they have David West willing to play for far less.

Is he as good as Aldridge?

Hell no.

But, he's better than nothing.

Doc has to swallow his pride and find a situation that interests the Mavs and do a sign and trade.

Any of these guys are better than Amare.

What the Clippers can do is a sign-and-trade that could bring them Indiana Pacers center Roy Hibbert. A league source told this newspaper shortly after Jordan’s team announced he was leaving that the Clippers could aim for a deal like this that would bring them Hibbert, send Jordan to Dallas with Dallas shooting guard Monta Ellis heading to Indiana. Ellis on Thursday agreed to a four-year deal with the Pacers.

Brian Windhorst: Just as Suns did w/Steve Nash & Cavs did with LeBron, Clippers need to put aside emotion & try to get Mavs to do sign & trade for exception. For example: double sign & trade with Monta Ellis that would land Roy Hibbert in LA & help Mavs pick up an asset or two plus Jordan. Or 3-way trade with Brendan Haywood’s contract that could enable Clips to make offer for Nene, Pekovic or Koufos. There are ways out for LAC.

 

[Retroram52]

I totally agree Mecca. Jordon does not realize what he had with the Clips, Paul, Griffen, et al. He didn't like Paul for getting on him for missing FTs. Jordon wants to be the guy and when he finds out what he is going to have to do in Dallas even though he thinks he's ready for one of the focal points of their offense, everyone including Jordon is going to discover he isn't what he thinks he is and that Dallas overpaid for a guy that can't make free throws on a consistent basis. His shot repertoire is not much more than dunks and putback lay-ups for crying out loud and he left the Clippers because he didn't like a guy exposing him for what everyone already knows about him? Go figure.

Might have missed someone posting it earlier:

Tobias Harris back to the Magic; 4 years, 64 mil

The Cavs win 70

Bob Finnan: Tristan Thompson contract talks hit snag

If this is true and TT wants $90. Go suck a dick. $16 is still above what you should make. Accept it and move on...geez

He's restricted. Why not just do nothing and force him to take the qualifying offer?
