DeAndre Jordan shared a pretty interesting opinion while being interviewed by the media in Rio on Wednesday. He said that in his view, winning a an Olympic gold medal is a bigger accomplishment than winning an NBA championship ring. [tweet https://twitter.com/ESPNNBA/status/765924634701271040] When you take a step back and analyze the statement at a base level [...]

Los Angeles Clippers coach and president Doc Rivers has no plans to break up his team’s Big Three of Chris Paul, Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan. It almost happened last summer, when DeAndre Jordan first agreed to join the Dallas Mavericks. And there will be questions about the long-term sustainability of this core next summer, [...]
Losing to the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday night did little to curb the sarcastic streak of Dallas Mavericks head coach Rick Carlisle. During the Clippers’ 109-90 shellacking of the Mavericks, DeAndre Jordan exploded for 23 points, 20 rebounds, two steals and two blocks.

The Clippers have a crap ton of talent on their hands: three legitimate stars in Chris Paul, Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan; an [...]

It’s a good thing the Los Angeles Clippers ultimately didn’t lose DeAndre Jordan to the Dallas Mavericks. Because coach and president Doc Rivers would have been pissed. P-I-S-S-E-D. Rivers opened up about the entire situation to Yahoo Sports’ Adrian Wojnarowski (h/t Bleacher Report), and it was during their little chat that it became clear that [...]

So as it turns out, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban isn’t over this whole “Doc Rivers and the Los Angeles Clippers stole DeAndre Jordan back from us” thing. And, really, who could blame him? I mean, to put it simply, the Mavericks had Jordan, one of the top free agents available, and then, quite suddenly, [...]
