Now that would be hilarious. Agree to sign with Dallas. Waiver and think about going back to your old team in LA which are contenders. Pull a fast one, sign with the Bucks.

We shoulda nabbed Weems. Nice pickup for Phoenix.

Oh thank god. Just saw it on Twitter. Would have been quite the show

If the Mavs miss out on Jordan that would be quite the kick in the nuts for that franchise.

Where do they go from there?

Count me in on this trade. I've wanted Anderson in the draft. If we can get him AND shed some salary I would be ecstatic.

Blessing in disguise. They weren't going anywhere, anyway.

Not that Cuban needs to be stingy with his money...

Chaos and carnage please.

He's going back to the Clipps. No way you take that meeting and then say "Aaaaaah SIKE!"

If that report about DJ calling Doc telling him he might've made a mistake is true...Dallas is screwed. Also seems silly, but the Clippers players trolling on twitter with the emojis makes me think they know something we don't.

Seems pretty dumb to have a 9 day moratorium. How many times does this have to happen for the NBA to change this.

But will he instead flip out and try to steal some other verbal commit from someone else? Jordan was one of the first FA dominos. Is there even a small potential that this could be like a FA reset button? Is there anything in the league constitution about tampering with causality?

Other question: does Cuban have any friends in the league? I feel like if I was an owner, I wouldn't think twice about **** him over. He habitually implies that everybody else is stupid.

This would be a bad trend in the NBA for players to do this. Heck I worry about that with Monroe (some of you hope I am sure).

I can't see how this looks good for the NBA, the players or the agents. I would have thought there was some form of a commitment or penalty from the NBA. Perhaps tampering with causality as you say.

If anyone should back out, it's SAC and that awful Philly trade.

This is such an absurd story :lol:

We all have to agree the Wesley Matthews contract is terrible, right? If you pick up DJ as well it looks like you could get home court, but if overpaying a gimpy Wesley Matthews is all they do this off season dirk is going to go out like Kobe Bryant (hopefully a little more dignity though).

Resigning barea and Jefferson don't inspire confidence.

Give us a little bit to play with. Darrell Arthur would still be my guy to sign as a backup 4.

I can't top laughing at this Jordan/Clips/Mavs situation.

engelmartin · Post #3339 » by **engelmartin** » Thu Jul 9, 2015 12:46 am

Darrell Arthur would be a great move.

Lmao at the Clippers turning Jordan's house into a prison. Is this real life?
