THE 2015 NBA PRE SEASON THREAD: BEST WISHES TO LAMAR ODOM

[lawdog1]

I'm much more bothered by us pathetically crawling back to DJ to get him to change his mind than by losing him in the first place.

First blowing a 3-1 playoff lead, now this. Its hard out here for us Clippers fans sometimes.

 

[keko jones]

The clippers would be better with DJ vices CP ....

Maybe I'm wrong, but I think they could find a solid PG to distribute ... You can't find a solid athletic big man.

 

[jadaqwest]

is this for real? the Clippers are trying to get another meeting with Deandre after he made choice....boy i aint never heard such a thing the clippers are low and if Deandre still having meetings let that fool roll.... you agreed... so now u still taking meetings i have a feeling he's gonna go back to LA ...in my eyes if you marry a chick but she still going on dates with her ex what are we here for smh Deandre if u f this up for the mavs....

Smh

Today gonna be fun around here.

 

[EddieDoyers]

How many more high fives is Cp0 gonna give DJ if he does come back?

 

[noblekane]

@BaxterHolmes: Sources told @Chris_Broussard that DJ has told people close to him since picking Dallas that he's still "torn" & "unsure" about his choice.

This says it all

I hope he stays with the clippers. Makes the west much more interesting

 

[captainsneakerhead23]

LAC is weak as hell for messing with a player once they agreed to terms already. DJ better be a man and stand tall. Stay with your new team.

DJ sounds like a Thot right now.


Also the NBA better step in and fine for clippers or dead this. He agreed already.

Verbal Agreements technically mean nothing though. Its more of an honor thing. He can do whatever he wants.

Carlos Boozer comes to mind.

I remember the whole boozer thing.

But imagine if this was a team reneging on a contract agreed in principle? He backlash would be wild.

And the NBA should step, this just allows for more of this nonsense in the future.

This is exactly like college basketball recruiting, until you have officially signed your name on the dotted line teams/players/coaches/owners etc. can continue to make sales pitches .

I ain't even mad at the Clips, losing DJ right now would kill any chances of getting out of the 2nd round

I hope Glenn gets this done just to see NT up in arms over DJ backpedaling

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

By the way I'm not a lawologist or anything but I'm pretty sure a verbal contract is legally binding

 

[buc em]

One of my favorite deep sleepers. TJ's going to make a team. Dude is tough, plays good d and shoots 40% from 3. whats not to like?

Sixers already signed him to a six figure contract regardless of him being cut. So basically he will be on the team this year.

This is awesome.

No reason why he can't be a 3rd string PG for an NBA team and actually Stick. There's always value with guards who don't turn the ball over, shoot 3's at a high clip, and defend.

 

[Peep Game]

LOL. DJ isn't changing his mind. We can't compete with Cubes and Parsons telling DJ he's Shaq 2.0 (nor should we try)

But they can compete with the fact that their #2 and #3 players wouldn't be coming off knee injuries

 

[xbiker47]

That Boozer story is something else

 

[EddieDoyers]

Damn if DJ does come back to the Clips, no Javale McGee comeback :[

 

[awwsome]

If DJ goes back, NBA is officially WWE.

 

[shoeking2102]

The Clippers were not pleased with the way Dallas recruited Deandre Jordan and were not happy with Dan Faegan influence on the decision with Cuban. Also not happy with the fact that Dallas got to dine with DJ and Met with him on multiple occasions while LAC met with him once. 

 

[noblekane]

so what is the point of having 10 days between free agency starting and allowing players to actually sign?

Nothing.

Nba needs to dead that

Should just start free agency on july 1

 

[shoeking2102]

If DJ goes back, NBA is officially WWE.

Too late for this. Once Lebron curved the Cavs on National TV for Miami then WENT BACK to that team it became WWE

doubt it.
