Skip Bayless just said DeAndre Jordan is a "Diva" and...

[Quake Griffin]

"Problem CHild"




how come we didn't come up with a blanket rule in this forum to only listen to Southern Cal outlets who are in touch with the team and THIS forum on Clipper talk.

i hate that he got to put those words on people's ears.

general public perception of our team: They're floppers who can't score unless they fast break and there might be something wrong with DeAndre Jordan now because Bayless said so.



edit: at least he finally said we scare him vs. his spurs.

DJ a Diva??? I think Skip has been drinking toooooooooooooooooooooooo many tequila laced drinks at his brother's restaurants. I don't see it; granted I think DJ has shown frustration, but I thought he was working hard not having a "Sissy Fit" when the calls (or not being on the floor) weren't going his way.
If he is such a DIVA Skip, please tell me why & how he can be one of the Clippers biggest cheer leaders when he is not on the floor?

[donudon]

smh...Can he be sued for defamation? lol

I just hope this statement would make other general managers reluctant in trading for dj because i don't want to see him go haha

[illastrate]

Skip says a laundry list of idiotic jargon every day. Nothing new.

[mkwest]

Never let Skip get you riled up about anything. He's a troll.

[azncorruptedo17]

skip sucks donkey poop.

[JayClips92]

He called Joe Flacco, "FlukeCo" before the Superbowl, such a troll

[mttwlsn16]

Skip bashed realgm clippers forum? What?

[Neddy]

skip clueless strikes again. what a moron. i stopped watching all things BSPN because of i couldn't stand nonsense from **** like him anymore. skip is a liar and never even liked his sport articles on paper back in the day.

Vinnie has been sitting him for entire 4th quarters and he hasn't said a word and is always standing up cheering for teammates. I don't know how you leave it on the channel long enough to hear what that dude has to say.

Skip Bayless is one of those guys that exaggerates things, but let me be the first to say he does have valid points. Even Stephen A. Smith states that Skip knows what hes talking about however he skews things and exaggerates things.

I've been hearing that DJ wants more minutes but hey what do I know. I am a Heat.

[clip set]

I legitimately feel like the things that ESPN analysts/commentators say have been getting worse by the day

[Cracka2Hi]

I don't agree with this, but I don't really care that Bayless said this. He's not to be taken seriously. I think he and Stephen A Smith are very entertaining but I don't consider them a source or anything like that.

As a Clipper fan, Skip is a POS. The good thing about a major media outlet saying this sort of stuff about one of our guys? It came from Skip, and everyone knows how ridiculous everything he says can be.


As a twitter user... I have been slightly worried in the past about how vocal his mama is, and have noticed some of his brothers cryptic tweets, which could be interpreted as shots at the organisation. I just hope DJ is strong enough to tell his mama to sit down and shut up like Lebron did, as negative influence from those close to him may not be in the franchises best interest....

How is Skip Bayless an idiot? Sure some of the stuff he says is outrageous. But we all have opinions and people take them different. Skips credentials speak itself. All I am saying is before anyone calls Skip an idiot we really need to look at his credentials to see how he is one of the two co-host of ESPN First Take (other being Stephen A. Smith).

just said tony parker is better than cp3

[Quake Griffin]

i sincerely hope chris is watching and goes for 35-15 tonight.

[mkwest]

I wouldn't necessarily call Bayless an idiot even if he says some idiotic things. He knows what he's doing (by saying the outlandish things he says) and it's what keeps people tuning in. For instance, he just said Tony Parker over CP3. I like Parker a lot, but

I wouldn't call him an idiot, but he certainly is not a good basketball analysts, and he isn't proven good by the very few times he got something right. He exaggerates opinions, but that isn't the problem, the problem is that he exaggerates a lot of wrong opinions. Everyone can have an opinion, but opinions without facts and proof are useless and that is what Skip does.

I don't get the diva and problem child stuff though, based on what?

Tony Parker has been really good this season, but Paul has as much impact offensively and is a much higher impact defensive player, so I can't take Parker over him.
