Is this really true? There's no way Cuttino Mobley is (was) the biggest free agent signing in Clippers history...right?
I mean, I know they've been a bad, bad team for a long, long time, but...that's just sad if Mobley was the biggest name to ever come to the team (before Davis)...
It's true unless somebody wants to add any previous players. I'm not familiar with the Buffalo Braves or any players who are that old school but before Baron, Mobley was the biggest FA signing in L.A. Clippers history. Sad but true. We had to overpay at $42 million/5yrs to get him too but I think it set a nice precedent with where Donald Sterling and his wallet is at. This is why the last few years have been a real turning point for this franchise even though people are quick to say "same old Clippers." Sterling has been trying to put a winning team together since the end of '04.
Baron Davis is the first star player to ever want to put on a Clippers uniform voluntarily.
