    25% of me is pissed the Clippers are probably slightly better than us at this point with their upgrades

    75% of me can't believe how funny it is that the Mavs and Cuban got screwed

    I am so happy right now.
    I wish there was someone outside DJ's house filming Cuban begging for DJ to let them in lol.

    I hope this shines more light on the scumbag that is Dan Fegan. The move even before this made no sense. Jordan as a P&R big leaving CP3 and a title contender to play with some middling team with mediocre upside and no PGs. Now stories are surfacing that basically DJ to Dallas was all about Fegan. I just Fegan disgusting as his practices are all about using his stars to get more money for his role players, like getting Dwight to Houston to let Parsons out of his contract, or Parsons to Dallas for max, promising Cuban DeAndre Jordan the following year. Also did this in Washington with Wall and Martell Webster.

    I'm all for agents getting clients money. I'm not really for this whole package deals and promises that may not be for the benefit of the player.

    I hate the Mavs as much as the next guy but I feel for them here - Jordan Effed them bad. This is one of those situations where everyone loses - the Mavs are obviously going to be a lotto team, Fagan looks like a creep who players can't trust, the Clippers didn't seem too worried about DJ until they were all of a sudden faced with the prospect of NO PLAN B which makes Doc, CP3, and Blake look clueless....and probably most disappointing is Houston appears to be behind the Clippers now that they have made their moves(and Houston hasn't made a move to counter.

    I'm hoping Cuban becomes completely overtaken with revenge and decides to trade Dirk to Houston just to push Houston over the Clippers. I can't help but feel like karma is at play here - Cuban has been trying to screw Houston in FA for a while now and so this happens. I'm wondering if DJ isn't in for some karma payback this season as well....

    I hate it that it's the Clippers DJ is going to go back to, but I love that it screws up the Mavs. There is going to be a ton of you know what hitting the fans with Cuban through. There will probably be investigations with Cuban screaming about it.

    My reaction is laughing at the Mavs, feeling sorry for DJ (b/c he is just a big child in a huge man's body & b/c he will be taken for granted all over again), for hating the precedent of a player being able to do this after a team has counted on them.

    Right now, #LOLMavs. Today was a great day on NBA twitter.

    When the dust settles here, Crap, the Clips are going to be really, really good.

    If he left, they had no means to replace him.


    No problem with him going back on his word, as terrible as it is.

    I think I do have a problem [who am I though?] with the way he handled it at the ending. As much as I enjoyed Griffin on twitter...

    You want to go back? Fine. The "We're gonna hide in the house, invite the Clippers over, let them camp out, go MIA from Dallas folks trying to contact you and just wait until 11pm to sign back with LA", come on, just call them and tell them I'm going back to LA.

    Anything bad for the Mavs is good for the Rockets, and now Cuban has a new enemy to feud with instead of Morey. Speaking of Morey, if you crack your window, you can hear his laughter all the way from TC.

    Well this will hopefully mean that the Clips can't enhance their team during the season and no one will want to trade with them because of this clusterf*** off an offseason they created

    What pisses me off, and I know you'll all agree, is how different fans and media would look at this if it were Dwight.
