    The only way for Broussard to save himself here is to just explain to Mark that "all my sources communicate on CyberDust"

    I don't understand why anyone ever did respect him. He was terrible on TV, never broke any news, he's been straight up garbage even by ESPN's miserable standards for his entire career.

    I hate Cuban n the mavs only from a basketball standpoint and them giving jtimberlake that crazy contract. That being said,the clippers are pathetic. That including deandre. You are part of the NBA business. One team sacrificed literally a week of their time trying to get you and your dumb*ss verbally commited. Y would u commit if u were unsure. And lol to have them by your side until the last minute, is he really 26?. Broussard got some kahunas messing with an owner. Mavs vs Clippers rivalry just got real. Cuban is probably never dealing with Clippers again. He would probably deal with the rockets before them.

    Please fire him. He was a hack before but that's crossing one too many lines. Come on BSPN.

    What did the Clippers do wrong here? DeAndre changed his mind. Should they have refused to take him back on some principle that the Mavs wouldn't honor is the situation were reversed?

    Don't you guys understand that this is what ESPN wants. Ethics and Truth are such a gray area in the media that all the reporter needs is semblance of truth (DJ was about to renege and Cuban/Parson was in town) and the following to bring more clicks to EPSN.com or followers on Twitter. Good or Bad. Take the JPP's medical records being tweeted out for example. That is totally for clicks. Some times it's a story, sometimes it's a picture.

    I honestly don't know which one you're talking about. Everyone is laughing at both of them right now.

    What did they do wrong? We'll, one of their players became a free agent and agreed to go to another team. The whole team went after him to make him brake his commitment. That's bad. bad ethics right there. That immediately affected players that probably signed with the Mavs because of DJ. It also affected directly the Mavs who probably signed players over their value, because they wanted to give DJ the best opportunity to shine. The NBA simply can't function like this. The chain reaction effect is too hard to live with. In the future NBA has to allow teams to sign the players immediately after they agree to a contract.

    That's what the Clippers and DJ did.

    PS. Does somebody really pay for Broussard for his services. Pitiful!

    This is like Yinka Dare and Darko Milic going back and forth and arguing as to which one of the two had a better NBA career.

    You just want to laugh at them both.

    Cuban just got sharked at his own game. DeAndre new that Mavs were going to be garbage even with his services. Enjoys playing meaningful games and having CP3 lobbing it to him. Who does Little D have that can even stand in the same room with CP3 in terms of passing ability. He had to flirt with the Mavs though to show LA they were going to have to pay up to keep him. Although he did more than flirt...they got to 2nd base...but was stranded

    Mark Cuban may be a head case, but he mostly says things that are essentially true. The league rules just forbid him for saying such things aloud. He gets fined dearly for it. However, I give it to Cuban that he has a team to take care of. Broussard only has rumors to spread and someone is paying him for it. Is that a real job?

    I know. I've always thought Chris Paul, Doc Rivers and Blake Griffin were assholes.

    Deandre changed his mind. Fine. After they met with him, they should of told him to notify the team you verbally agreed with that you decided to change your mind. Not picking up phone calls and answering texts from an NBA owner/GM is very childish.

    When has Cuban had one of his players decide to sign elsewhere, announce it to the world, and then decide at the last minute to change his mind?

    So, I have great Chris Broussard story:

    I was at the inaugural ball for Obama in DC, and ran into someone who I thought was a janitor at my hospital in DC. I went up to him and said "Hey hows it going? You're the janitor at my hospital." He said no, I work for ESPN. That's when I realized it was Chris Broussard lol.
