    Can Wesley Matthews back out and go to the Kings now?

    We need a Clutchfans reporter on the scene when DeAndre meets up with the Clippers contingency. That would be a great conversation to overhear. I presume they're meeting him at his house?

    I believe anything is possible until the deals are actually signed. Would look bad to back out but if Jordan does it I could see it happening.

    I guess it ain't done until you've taken a selfie with Cuban in a night club.

    if DJ had any brains he would've fired dan fegan when he demanded cp3 be traded. cp3 made him offensively, without him he'd be brandan wright

    Not necessarily.

    The league certainly can punish the Clippers if they choose to. They have wide latitude to punish any of their teams.

    It really comes down to what the league wants to do. They can fine and take away draft picks if they choose to.

    Another possibility is that the Clippers owner has already discussed the matter with Silver and knows the leagues position.

    Rockets need to hire the old twitter dude right now. He would "kill" this emoji war.

    Oh, no doubt he's gonna pull something with Dwight. Don't believe he wanted him here in the first place.

    Up to the players though (or should be anyways).

    Dwight and DeAndre and these players shouldn't let an agent steer them to a place they [potentially] don't want to be. If I sign somewhere against your wishes and you don't like [but I do], well hey, screw you!

    Wow just wow. Dirk deserves better than the Frankenstein roster the Mavs have put together without Jordan.

    Feels wrong to punish the Clips with this sorry ass agent pulling the strings.

    Hopefully Fegan's roster fires him.

    It's funny because his decision is so obvious. He can get more money with better players in a better city. Shouldn't even be a discussion.
