    One of these franchises is going to be decimated. I love it!

    I'm not impressed with Doc Rivers as a coach or a GM. I know a lot of people think he is some kind of basketball God, but DJ should never have wanted to leave the Clippers in the first place. Doc allows the Clippers to lose in embarrassing fashion to the Rockets in the playoffs, and now this offseason fiasco.

    Lol if Dallas doesn't sign DJ they are lottery bound.

    How are Mavprick fans going to spin this one?

    I don't know what I want truly.

    I want the Clips to be decimated but I also want Mavs fans to eat ****.

    Cmon DJ sign with the Knicks!

    What's different about the Clippers' pitch to DJ today that is going to persuade him? The Clippers should not have left any bullets in the gun.

    Most likely a bigger role. That's it. With the group of guys there (+ no agent) they can better express his expanded role with the team.

    As a Rockets fan, Jordan's decision comes down to this:

    If you want the Clippers and Mavericks to stay borderline playoff teams, then you want Jordan to sign with Dallas.

    OR

    If you want the Clippers to be a championship contender and the Mavericks to be lottery bound, you want Jordan to stay in LA.

    Take emotions out of it, and Jordan to Dallas is the logical choice that benefits the Rockets. Dallas being lottery bound doesn't help us at all.

    Is he even allowed to backout?

    It would be interesting to see what would happen if he does. Would the Mavs be able to get rid of Matthews? Would they make Dirk available? If so, could we get him?

    Whoa, Dan Fegan didn't attend this meeting? That's a huge plus for the Clippers if true.
