    I don't think Brand was really into this whole evolution that Clip's front office was jelling.
    Brand's signing with 6'rs really states to me -
    Brand was sick of playing for a loser club , and wants in on the playoff's.

    HE got his wish , and from I understand Philly has some good music as well.

    Baron Davis - if smart should crawl or roller skate back to the Warriors where he was considered a cult.
    Unless Lakers through him a bomb.

    Baron jumping ship (GS) really is confusing . (unless he heard it was sinking)

    BD had beef with Nellie... game against the Suns, if the Warriors won it would have put them in position to make the playoffs. BD didn't get off the bench the entire 2nd half

    i am still laughing at all these "fans" who were saying the clips were gonna be top 4 or 6 in the West.

    if BD doesn't sign they could be worst in the league. seriously

    couldn't be more true... with a healthy Thornton/Kaman/BD they'll win close to 40, without BD they'll win 18 games or so. So much pressure on BD, I really hope he bolts

    Reason 1, and Reason 2 that the the Clippers and Baron Davis lost in this one. The Clips look bad for not planning ahead. I think Baron is a fool for signing with a team with so much uncertainty, and he looks bad if he backs out at this point. Not a Clippers fan but I hate to see them fall apart like this. Thank god for an interesting offseason.

    I heard the Clips are going to offer large deals to Jsmoov and Okafor, it is possible that 1 of them passes on the large contact.

    If they got Smith and Baron, that could an exciting and interesting team to watch.

    B. Diddy leading the break with 3 extremely athletic high flying finishers in Smith, Thornton, and Eric Gordon.

    They didn't want to pay him. He tried negotiatiating a long term deal with them when it was time for an extension. They kept blowing him off. Then finally they offered him a 2 year deal for 28 million.

    He wanted a 5 year deal. The Clippers gave it to him and then he booked.

    They won't give him over 2 years.

    Baron just signed

    [QUOTE]
    The Los Angeles Clippers today solidified their point guard position for years to come with the announced signing of free agent Baron Davis to a multi-year contract. Per team policy, terms of the deal were not announced.

    A two-time NBA All-Star (2002 and 2004), Davis averaged 21.8 points (12th in the NBA), 7.6 assists (6th in the NBA), 4.7 rebounds and 2.33 steals (3rd in the NBA) while playing in all 82 games for the Golden State Warriors during the 2007-08 season. Davis was just one of four players in the league last season to average 20+ points and seven+ assists (Allen Iverson, LeBron James, Chris Paul) per game. The 6

    Reasons why I didnt see Baron backing out:

    He already reffered to Golden State as the past and he was looking foward to Los Angeles

    Hes from LA so backing out would really have upset alot of people in his hometown

    He gets to run his business in LA now, hes closer to Black Wall Street and the rest of his crew.
