    DeAndre Jordan has told the Los Angeles Clippers that he wants to walk away from his new deal with the Dallas Mavericks to stay in L.A., according to league sources.

    But sources told ESPN.com that the unprecedented fluidity of Jordan's free agency has convinced the Clippers that they need to stay at Jordan's side until he can formally sign a new contract, given that Jordan has already changed his mind once in this process.

    Sources say Jordan, in a Wednesday meeting at his Houston home with several Los Angeles teammates and top team officials, left the Clippers with the clear message that he intends to renege on Friday's commitment to sign a four-year, $80-plus million max deal with the Mavericks and re-sign a lucrative deal with the Clippers instead.

    Why is Clyde even commenting on this? He has no stake in this decision.

    If he's already decided to re up with the Clips why not just tell the Mavs and end the drama? I don't like the way it unfolded but love that Dallas is getting trashed.

    So? Playing in the NBA is a privilege, something millions could only dream of.

    And we have Jordan who thinks this whole thing is a game, potentially ruining a franchise for years to come.

    Drexler's right...DeAndre needs to step up to the plate and just put the ponies out of their misery.

    If DeAndre can ruin the franchise for years to come, then the Mavs never had a chance anyways.

    How great is it that all these guys are meeting up in the same city where their season ended.
