Re: Jordan Dealt For Cash Considerations:
Not sure why the Clippers would do this. If he wasn't going to make the team this year they could have gone the Diaz route and have had him play in Europe for a season. I don't like it because I would rather have Jordan than Diaz on the team, right now if Cassell or Knight get hurt there isn't a PG to replace him since Diaz in my opinion is no PG.

Re: Jordan Dealt For Cash Considerations:
How stupid was that for the Clippers? They couldn't at least gotten a future 2nd round pick or maybe gotten a shooter that they desperately need like Demetris Nichols?

Re: Jordan Dealt For Cash Considerations:
At least give him a chance in training camp to see what he does around actual NBA players before you trade him. Or just send him to Europe for one year like they did with Diaz. And what the hell is cash considerations? That does nothing for anyone but Sterling. What a wasted pick.

Re: Jordan Dealt For Cash Considerations:
Terrible move. should have at least been for a 2nd rounder plus cash considerations. No cash that we could get from selling jordan can mean anything for this team.

Re: Jordan Dealt For Cash Considerations:
i would have liked jordan to be given a chance seeing as sam's a shoot first pg and who knows when brevin gets injured again...the clipps had really nothing to lose and everything to gain if jordan plays the way he did in college...it's gonna sting like a tabasco enema if he becomes the next stockton or nash...oh well, too late now

Re: Jordan Dealt For Cash Considerations:
Shocker. Very questionable move as far as I'm concerned. I don't mind the Dickau signing, but I would've liked to have seen Jordan get a chance.

Re: Jordan Dealt For Cash Considerations:
Lawler's Q&A on Jordan:
Quote:
I was disappointed to see Jared Jordan traded away. If his passing ability is as good as I've heard (and I've read somewhere that he patterns his game after Nash) then we missed out on an opportunity to give players like Maggette and Thornton someone that can make amazing passes (until Livingston comes back, that is). Why didn't they at least take a look at him during training camp?
Dickau
Allan,
Jared did make amazing passes. The problem was that he didn’t make even ordinary shots. He needs time to work on his ability to shoot the basketball and with two aging and recently injury prone veterans ahead of him on the depth chart, it seemed prudent to acquire another vet who knew his way around the league.
Dickau fit the bill perfectly and he is s fine shot maker as well as a play-maker. Oh, and they did get a good look at Jordan during summer league and in almost daily workouts in L.A.

Re: Jordan Dealt For Cash Considerations:
So... Livingston can't shoot, Knight is even worse, but Jordan doesn't fit the kind of PG we're looking for?
I think the Livingston extension is already decided, they were just afraid that Jordan might outplay him.
PS, when did the clips start giving a crap about shooting anyways? we've been the worst 3-point shooting team overall for years now, with barely any interest paid in solving that problem.

Re: Jordan Dealt For Cash Considerations:
Sounds more like an excuse than a reason to trade Jordan away. At any rate though, if Dickau can provide the same type of production as Jason Hart did last year and make a few more jumpers in the process I wouldn't be nearly as disappointed in the trade.

Re: Jordan Dealt For Cash Considerations:
Ouch Jordan got waived by the Knicks today. Makes you wonder why they traded for him in the first, I guess they like to give money away.

The Knicks have made some of the dumbest moves I've ever seen a front office make. They took on the Malik Rose contract at more than 7 mil per, they signed Jerome James to a 30 million dollar deal, they're paying Stephon Marbury 20 million plus per season! Isiah is completely insane, in addition to being a really bad guy.
