What a bitch move

[exstatic]

Oh, dear Lord. This will probably turn out as well as Cosby's PR dept asking for Twitter memes. "Jello pudding and rape!" was one of them. :lol

[Sean Cagney]

What a bitch move

Yep, he could have faced them like a man when he decided but instead ran and hid. Too little too late here.

[ducks]

Yes could have tweeted he called Cuban and parsons
But no he tweeted it could not even afford the call with those California taxes

[Darius McCrary]

DeAndre is finished

He's gonna get so much shit for this throughout the off season and into next season.
A dumbass Aggie who already has proven he's pretty mentally weak is going to have a horrible season next year. Especially after such a payday.

Bet on it.

[Darius McCrary]

I mean he's not Dwight Howard level mentally weak but he is definitely in that area code

[Obi Juan Kenobi]

Its like getting dumped via text message...

[boutons_deux]

Boozer did the same to the Cavs?

[spursparker9]

I think a few flagrant fouls could be due for DJ

[TheQuietDynasty]

tweeting live from the guys slumber party that turned into a weekend thing?

[ducks]

If he did he he should done this early
Someone told him he better do something so he did it
He idiot

[tholdren]

this is the way the new generation does things = hide behind internet, evidence is this forum.

[BatManu20]

Oh, her apologized? We're cool then. No biggie. Best of luck in LA!


-Mark Cuban, never

[milkyway21]

If he's chicken to lead a team, at least learn to be man enough to apologize via phone or meet Cuban.

Grow up De Andre.

[tmtcsc]

SMH, teenage girl with money.

[keepinitwill]

That is really a dick move. Just suck it up and call Cuban. Sure it wil be akward and uncomfortable, but it will just take a few minutes and then be over. Youngters today sure lack social skills.

[itzsoweezee]

Pathetic. No grown man can get away with that. The mental pressure may keep him from ever making a free throw again.

[Kuvai]

Who the FUCK Cares about his apology..
he will probably backout of his apology tomorrow..

[boutons_deux]

Manly way to turn down $80M

[cd98]

He made a mistake. He apologized. Move on.

[AFBlue]

Loved Parsons reaction...basically said he shrunk from being a franchise player, was too scared. I loved it.

He deserves to get lambasted for how he handled the situation.

[spurs10]

Cuban's likely response 'Oh he tweeted an apology, that's not as good as a phone call or a man to man conversation, but I greatly appreciate him taking the time to tweet his heartfelt apology. I'm good now, that's all I wanted was a simple tweet. Hope it didn't take too much time. All is forgiven. Love ya DJ. My off season plans are no biggie.'

[Beaverfuzz]

Loved Parsons reaction...basically said he shrunk from being a franchise player, was too scared. I loved it.

Yep, getting coached by Tom Rivers is a death sentence.

[TDomination]

it'll be fun watching the clippers play the mavericks at dallas

[21209]

In the long run, DJ did the Mavs a favor.

He's a great defender, but he is no franchise player. His limited offensive game is a testament to that.

Would have been a good get, but, they were mistaken if they thought he would be the face of their franchise. His immaturity ultimately bared that out.

[spurs10]

' Just a simple tweet (Cuban dabs tear-filled eyes) that's all I needed....I'm good... (breaks into loud sobs)...please turn off your cameras.' :(

[Darkwaters]

Jordan's not exactly a man of much moral fiber, is he?

[cd98]

He deserves to get lambasted for how he handled the situation.

He was lambasted. There are three threads on this site, he was ripped on sports radio, and excoriated by the Dallas Morning News (the biggest paper in the region). He'll be booed constantly in Dallas and probably in other spots. But at this point, it's time to move on.

I haven't done enough piling on for my own liking...think I'll enjoy the ridicule a bit longer. But, feel free to move along if you don't want to participate.

Or intestinal fortitude. Or mental strength.

Cuban says DeAndre Jordan's apology wasn't really an apology

[Ron Swanson]

Someone told him he better do something so he did it
He idiot

Yeah, someone definitely told him to do this.

[Lostwingman]

Pffft, a tweeted apology. What a chickenshit move.

[HarlemHeat37]

Meh, not surprising coming from a player being coached by the biggest snake in the NBA..

[BillMc]

This fake Mark Cuban Inbox from Grantland has some good ones. Timmy apparently has C-SPan watching parties. :lol Bill Cosby's suggestion is, um, interesting...

Hopefully the mavs and clips meet in the playoffs and the mavs push there sh#*in.

I respect him for saying honor your commitment basically as a man, he would have signed with the Mavs had he said he would but Jordan didnt honor it. Tells u who is a better person and has some morals.
