The messed up thing is - if DeAndre backs out on the Mavs - watch the Mavs try to sign Robin Lopez out from under us.

whole Clips team is doing traveling vehicle emojis - guess, they're all going to Houston.


I wonder what Wes Matthews does with this? He did commit to Dallas before DeAndre officially decided.

Nice that this is happening to another team for a change. Cuban is going to implode if this happens, should be entertaining.

I doubt it - I think Cuban goes with rebuild/tank. But could, I guess.

I think Jordan Hill is still available!

I expect to see Cliff Paul arriving soon to give Doc and assist on this ordeal.

That is what I am worried about. Although I saw somewhere that Cuban said they would tank.

Don't think Lopez would do this type of thing...and if Cuban does it he also comes out looking bad, and potentially hypocritical, since he will undoubtedly make some comments about the Clippers and Jordan if he loses out.

Jordan realized how dumb it was to leave 30 mil and a chance at a championship ring on the table, just to play in his home town for a team with Linsanity as your starting PG. Playing on a team with Lin and Barrea as your only PG's would scare me too. Esepecially when Lin hasn't even confirmed yet. Dallas was already in tank mode, with or without DJ.

This could be the start of a chain reaction.....Silver better install some new rules, or you will see this happening a lot more in the imediate future.

So can I assume owners can back out as well? For a billion dollar industry, there needs to be more structure!

Jordan, Dirk, Parsons, and Matthews was a good start. Also, you forgot about Felton.

It sounds like he is leaning towards going back.

If Jordan backs out and resigns with LA....
and Dallas decided to tank....this is GREAT for the Celtics

it also sounds like there was a disconnect between him and his agent.

I bet he returns to the clips and gets himself a new agent in the process.

its too bad because I was thinking we could have traded Melo to the clips at the deadline.

I'm sure that will go down well with Dirk, who was praised for sacrificing money to win.

Didn't RoLo commit to us on the condition DJ was not coming here (i.e could have chosen LA and Lopez still committed to NY)?
