DeAndre Jordan

I don't think Dirk and Jordan complement each other on D. Both sort of slow footed. In all honesty, I think DeAndre would've been a better fit next to KP and Melo with the perimeter defenders the Knicks have at guard.


Not only will he not have a PG like Paul, but who will replace Blake G, who used to feed him for ally-oops all the time. Blake had 5.3 APG last year...not hard to figure out who was at the end of many of those assists.

Seemed to me that for Jordan, his best place was still with the Clippers, IMO.

Wonder how Phil would have used him?

Can we work out Calderon to them or are they near the cap now?

I think the Clippers were the best team for DeAndre too. But apparently Chris Paul can be a tough guy to play with. He does strike me as sort of a perfectionist, super competitive and expecting a lot of his own teammates. He may have alienated DAJ

Curious to see how he dos without CP3 and Blake. Although Dirk helps take some attention away, I don't think he realizes how many of his points were dimes from CP. Still an athletic big.

What was that incident about??

Was Paul trying to teach him how to shoot a FT?

Paul wanted him to put the ball back up off an offensive rebound.

He was also hard on him about FT shooting and it led to a rift this year apparently

Will be interesting to see Jordan become "the man" on offense for Dallas.

Rondo was tossed because he could not play within the system. So is Rick Carlisle going to run the offense through Jordan and give him expanded responsibilities?
