That's what happens when you have an owner like Cubes, who can't keep his mouth shut.

He's a bit of an ass but they had an agreement, Jordan's agent (Dan Fegan) is the guy that's really gonna get screwed over by this whole fiasco.

True. It's kind of funny the last few years, they have cap space & every summer seem to be used as leverage. Free agents express interest in going there, but they can't get any of the big names to actually sign.

Also this whole ordeal is just giving me more reasons to hate the Clippers.

At this point, would you really be shocked if Pop went to Houston & convinced DJ to take the minimum for 1 year & chase a ring. :pray:

That roster might challenge the 96' Bulls team. :wink:

Lol I doubt he could get into the house to talk to DJ.

Embarrassing for DJ and the Clippers.

Great way to stay hated for the rest of your career.

Yup. The only way they recovers from this is if the Clippers somehow manage to win a title before this all falls apart.

Also I can't see Doc Rivers getting another job after this, this is some bush league ****.

His agent is now in the dog house. If I'm Cuban, I avoid dealing with him at all in the future.

And seriously, the tweet from Blake Griffin (which from what I could tell was a pic of a chair up against the door suggesting they weren't letting Jordan out...) was disgraceful.

The NBA needs to fine the club for putting the game into disrepute for today's nonsense.

you hear that?

That's the sound of every other team's fan bases hating the clippers at the same time. It has a wonderful hum to it.

I already hated them for signing Paul Pierce. They got the best of us last year but that choke job against the Rockets will be a bigger obstacle for them to overcome mentally than they think.

Yeah that tweet was not a great idea. The league's gonna have to do something about this moratorium period.

Also can't believe that DJ didn't even have the balls to tell Cuban/the Mav's that he was backing out of their deal.

Truth be told, DJ always seemed like overgrown child to me.

BTW, what do you guys think about sentiments that Dirk should sign with us for another title run, after DJ debacle ?
I personally wouldn't want another pair of old legs in our frontcourt, even if Dirk is an amazing player still.

Can't see Dirk doing that and I can't see Cuban letting him leave.

You are getting Boban Marjanovic, 7'4, de guy is not so mobile, and all that, but he is a force.
