Brand Returning
I think It's clear that if Brand plays well, looks good and obviously doesn't re-injure himself, he's gone. Would he be coming back with a handful of games left to play and the Clippers eliminated from playoff contention if he didn't want to prove himself to somebody? No. Would he risk injury just to get some action in meaningless games when he's an established all-star in this league? No. It's clear to me he's coming back to showcase his healthy body to teams other than the Clippers, and if he can put up stats and look good enough to make it reasonable to opt out and give up a lot of money he's gone. I don't buy any excuse for him coming back this late for a few meaningless games other than for himself trying to get out of L.A. and get paid somewhere else. Are you excited for him coming back later this week? I'm certainly not, and I hope he doesn't play well.
